Hello nmap-dev. For those of you who don't already know/remember me, I am ithilgore of sock-raw.org and will be working on Nmap this SoC. Below follows the first status report: Status report #1 of 17 27 April, 2009 Accomplishments: * Studied part of Ncat code and reviewed http.c (still haven't finished auditing) * Committed 3 minor Ncat patches * Uploaded a wiki on my site: http://sock-raw.org/wiki where I will be posting updates and notes on Nmap * Started studying the nsock library and documented some things at http://sock-raw.org/wiki/Nmap/Nsock * Refreshed mem on some things from UNP vol 1 (socket options etc) * Created my own svn branch at svn://svn.insecure.org/nmap-exp/ithilgore/nmap-test Priorities: * Discuss tomorrow with Fyodor about the authentication cracking SoC project. * Read the essential parts of SVN book. * Experiment with nsock library - write my own test programs and specifically play with *many* sockets. * Study service_scan.cc, take notes and see how nsock is used there. Other candidates are nmap_dns.cc and NSE * Study thc-hydra source code, get ideas and note down its flaws/problems so that they are not repeated. * See how the Nmap congestion-avoidance algorithms can be integrated into the new project, since they will really make a difference there. I didn't mention things like compiling Nmap, subscribing to nmap-dev etc or reading the Nmap book since these had already been done before. -- ithilgore _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
