Hi folks! We just releaded Nmap 6.47 which I hope will fix some of the issues people have been having on Mac OS X 10.9 and when trying to use Ndiff from Zenmap. It has some other fixes and changes, but we were pretty selective in what we put in. The goals was to make this mostly a stability release, but we couldn't help ourselves from adding all the new OS detection signatures :). Here's are the CHANGELOG entries since 6.46: Nmap 6.47 [2014-08-22] o Integrated all of your IPv4 OS fingerprint submissions since June 2013 (2700+ of them). Added 366 fingerprints, bringing the new total to 4485. Additions include Linux 3.10 - 3.14, iOS 7, OpenBSD 5.4 - 5.5, FreeBSD 9.2, OS X 10.9, Android 4.3, and more. Many existing fingerprints were improved. Highlights: http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2014/q3/325 [Daniel Miller] o (Windows) Upgraded the included OpenSSL to version 1.0.1i. [Daniel Miller] o (Windows) Upgraded the included Python to version 2.7.8. [Daniel Miller] o Removed the External Entity Declaration from the DOCTYPE in Nmap's XML. This was added in 6.45, and resulted in trouble for Nmap XML parsers without network access, as well as increased traffic to Nmap's servers. The doctype is now: <!DOCTYPE nmaprun> o [Ndiff] Fixed the installation process on Windows, which was missing the actual Ndiff Python module since we separated it from the driver script. [Daniel Miller] o [Ndiff] Fixed the ndiff.bat wrapper in the zipfile Windows distribution, which was giving the error, "\Microsoft was unexpected at this time." See https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2524009 [Daniel Miller] o [Zenmap] Fixed the Zenmap .dmg installer for OS X. Zenmap failed to launch, producing this error: Could not import the zenmapGUI.App module: 'dlopen(/Applications/Zenmap.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/glib/_glib.so, 2): Library not loaded: /Users/david/macports-10.5/lib/libffi.5.dylib\n Referenced from: /Applications/Zenmap.app/Contents/Resources/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload/glib/_glib.so\n Reason: image not found'. o [Ncat] Fixed SOCKS5 username/password authentication. The password length was being written in the wrong place, so authentication could not succeed. Reported with patch by Pierluigi Vittori. o Avoid formatting NULL as "%s" when running nmap --iflist. GNU libc converts this to the string "(null)", but it caused segfault on Solaris. [Daniel Miller] o [Zenmap][Ndiff] Avoid crashing when users have the antiquated PyXML package installed. Python tries to be nice and loads it when we import xml, but it isn't compatible. Instead, we force Python to use the standard library xml module. [Daniel Miller] o Handle ICMP admin-prohibited messages when doing service version detection. Crash reported by Nathan Stocks was: Unexpected error in NSE_TYPE_READ callback. Error code: 101 (Network is unreachable) [David Fifield] o [NSE] Fix a bug causing http.head to not honor redirects. [Patrik Karlsson] o [Zenmap] Fix a bug in DiffViewer causing this crash: TypeError: GtkTextBuffer.set_text() argument 1 must be string or read-only buffer, not NmapParserSAX Crash happened when trying to compare two scans within Zenmap. [Daniel Miller] Be sure to speak up on this list if you try it and encounter any problems!
