A quick patch for the 'bug' described in
http://seclists.org/nmap-dev/2009/q1/0484.html.

I think the bug could be fixed in a better way, though. The code already
passes (*svc)->tunnel in the case of no match, so the fact that SSL was
detected is already recorded. I think you should rather patch
getNmapServiceName in output.cc. That's the function that builds up a
name from the service info.

Thanks for looking into this.
In fact, trying to adapt getNmapServiceName() was the first thing I
tried, but that does not work, as apparently that function never gets
called in the case described above. It seems that Nmap gives up on the
ssl tunnel completely, even before that function.

I followed the code a bit further, and it turns out that the tunnel that
getNmapServiceName() ultimately receives is set by
getServiceProbeProbeResults() in portlist.cc.
This function in turn gets it from 'serviceprobe_tunnel', which is
initialized with the value of SERVICE_TUNNEL_NONE.
It seems that the only way that 'serviceprobe_tunnel' (and hence
ultimately the tunnel description in getNmapServiceName()) can be
changed, is through a call to setServiceProbeResults().
This function is called from nse_nmaplib.cc, and from service_scan.cc.
But, this function is *never* called in the test case of above. Thus the
tunnel in these cases defaults to SERVICE_TUNNEL_NONE.

You're right, my analysis was not quite correct, because the call to
setServiceProbeResults is not made if there was no match and no
fingerprint. But calling it with no fingerprint is safe, as
getServiceFingerprint returns NULL in that case. I think we can get by
without a third call to setServiceProbeResults. Can you try the attached
patch and see if it does what you want? If so, then we can tweak the SSL
output in getNmapServiceName.

I am unable to try out the patch at the moment, but from the code it
seems okay; this is indeed a much better (shorter) way to obtain the
same results :)

I will not be able to do any tweaking in getNmapServiceName in the
following two weeks, but I surely can have a look at that later on. Of
course, feel free to go ahead without me ;)

Here are the results I get with this patch.

# ncat -l localhost 80
# ncat -l localhost 4433
$ ./nmap -sV -p 80,4433 localhost
PORT     STATE SERVICE  VERSION
80/tcp   open  http?
4433/tcp open  unknown?

# openssl s_server -cert test-cert.pem -key test-key.pem -accept 80
# openssl s_server -cert test-cert.pem -key test-key.pem -accept 4433
$ ./nmap -sV -p 80,4433 localhost
80/tcp   open  ssl/unknown
4433/tcp open  ssl/unknown

And here are examples where a fingerprint should be printed.

# ncat -l localhost 80 --exec "/usr/bin/date"
# ncat -l localhost 4433 --exec "/usr/bin/date"
$ ./nmap -sV -p 80,4433 localhost
80/tcp   open  http?
4433/tcp open  unknown?

I think these are the same results expected with your patch, correct?

Yes, indeed. Thanks!
