Re: Tudor's Status Report - #7 of 17

Hello,


I accidentally sent the report before I finished it, sorry.

This week I didn't get to finish the SSL integration for engine_iocp and I hope to finish it by next week.


Accomplishments:

- Did a stress test by using the ftp-brute NSE script to make a lot of traffic to try and guess a password on a vsftpd 
server I configured inside a VM. Engine_iocp works on par with the other engines and didn't cause much trouble there 
however I couldn't illustrate a performance boost due to parallelism probably because requests are made on the same 
connection.

- Brandon has been really nice and got me a Windows Server from where to conduct some mass scans(because my ISP may 
cause me problems if I scan from here).

I discovered a weird bug where if you scan multiple targets the scan will get stuck. I have tried to find the cause but 
so far I have been unsuccessful this is definitely a priority.


Priorities:

- Finish SSL.

- Fix the multiple targets bug on engine_iocp.

- Do some relevant measurements with Brandon's server.



Cheers,

Tudor
