This report was sent as 10/17 before. So I just correct the numbering. [Report 11/17] Hello Nmap Community, Accomplishments: - Found the reason that led to a huge memory consumption. As it turned out, libssh2 sessions were not freed properly. All my attempts to fix this behaviour lead to segmentation faults in the Lua engine for reasons I do not know yet, since libssh2 sessions are not related to Lua memory management. - Added two optional arguments to the unpwdb library, `user` and `pass`. Now it is possible to specify a single username or password without need to create a custom file. If `userdb` and `user` are both specified, then the preference is given to the `user` argument. The same is true for `passdb` and `pass`, only `pass` will be used. Example: nmap --script-args user=raskolnikov,pass=axe nmap --script-args user=nmap,userdb=/tmp/usr.lst is equivalent to nmap --script-args user=nmap Goals: o: Properly resolve memory consumption bug. o: Improve Linux/OS X build system with integrated libssh2
