Re: [PATCH]+[NSE Script] DNS open recursion (CVE-1999-0024)

I patched NSE 4.20ALPHA4 with a patch from the lua-users mailinglist
to support bitwise operations. I did not review the license (probably
same as lua) or the security of the patch[3].
The dns-test-open-recursion.lua script requires the patch. See [1] for
patches and downloads.

Do you think you could make do with Reuben's bitlib?
http://rrt.sc3d.org/Software/Lua/
It seems a lot more elegant to me to use a separate lib instead of  
mucking about
in the interpreter itself. That way we can update our lualib without  
losing bitops.

cheers
