Re:New OS fingerprint: China Unicom ONT/ONU (Realtek/Boa) gbfdhenr (Liang Xiangan) (Aug 01)
Hi Nmap developers,

I'd like to submit service fingerprints for a China Unicom GPON ONT (model PT927G) that I found in my home network.
This device runs a Linux-based firmware (kernel 3.18.24) and exposes several services.

**Device Information**:
- Model: PT927G
- Vendor: China Unicom (customized)
- Hardware hint: SMB share comment mentions "Realtek", suggesting a Realtek chipset.

Re:Correction: Huawei router misidentified as Netgear switch (fingerprint included) gbfdhenr (Liang Xiangan) (Aug 01)
Hi developers,

I'd like to add a service fingerprint for port 37443/tcp on the Huawei AX3 router.

This port runs SSL/TLS and requires client certificate authentication (mTLS). When connecting with a self-signed client
certificate, the server rejects it with a "unknown ca" alert, indicating that it verifies the client certificate
against a trusted CA.

**Certificate details:**

Re:Correction: Huawei router misidentified as Netgear switch (fingerprint included) gbfdhenr (Liang Xiangan) (Aug 01)
Hi Nmap developers,

Following up on my previous submissions (OS fingerprint and NSE script for the Huawei AX3), I've conducted a full port
scan and discovered two additional services that may help refine the service fingerprint database.

**1. Port 37215/tcp – UPnP**
- Service identified as: `Huawei ATP gateway upnpd`
- This seems to be already correctly matched in `nmap-service-probes`. I just wanted to confirm its presence.

**2. Port...

Correction: Huawei router misidentified as Netgear switch (fingerprint included) gbfdhenr (Liang Xiangan) (Jul 31)
Hi Nmap team,

I've encountered a clear OS detection misidentification that I believe should be corrected.

**Device in question**:
- A Huawei home router (MAC OUI: 30:A9:98 -> Huawei Device)
- Open ports: 53, 80, 443 (typical router/AP, not a headless switch)
- Running: Linux-based firmware (likely 3.18.24)

**Current incorrect result**:
Nmap 7.99 reports it as: "Netgear GS108Tv3, GS110Tv3, or GS308T switch (Linux 3.18.24)"...

[PATCH] nselib/bitcoin: add address classification helpers (refs #2857, PR #3371) Melo via dev (May 25)
PR #3371 adds three functions to nselib/bitcoin.lua:

[PATCH 0/5] ALPN-based HTTP/2 service detection improvements Urval Kheni (Apr 14)
Hi,

This patch series introduces ALPN-based improvements to service detection
for TLS services.

It adds support for extracting the negotiated ALPN protocol and uses
"h2" as a conservative fallback signal to infer HTTP over TLS when
service detection fails.

This improves detection of HTTP/2-only services, which return binary
responses not recognized by existing probes.

The changes are structured as follows:

1.2 on a CloudFront target (itwisegroup.com:443) that uses an ECDSA
certificate and Post-Quantum hybrid key exchange (X25519MLKEM768).

Npcap Version 1.82 Released with VLAN Tagging and More Gordon Fyodor Lyon (Apr 28)
Dear Nmap Community,

In preparation for an imminent Nmap release (hopefully this week!), we have
released Version 1.82 of our Npcap Windows packet capture and transmission
driver. It builds upon the recent 1.81 release to add support for VLAN
tagging. This allows you to select for packets directed to a certain VLAN
or just inspect the VLAN headers on any packets received. It's especially
useful for Wireshark users. You can also now send...

inband_ioctl() receives a response through the Realtek in-band transport

Chronicle Wire resolves through its configured ClassLookup.

unauthenticated, network-reachable, triggered purely by attacker-controlled
query text, and requires no special configuration. Reproduced against the
published v0.8.1 module fetched from the Go module proxy.

Re: Whois using these ARIN services?? (fwd: Consultation on the Future of ARIN???s Directory Services) John R. Levine via NANOG (Aug 23)
That seems awfully passive aggressive. For domains, ICANN set a timeline
and after a little bit of grumbling, we adapted. I did it, it wasn't
hard. While I was at it I switched the IP and ASN lookups to RDAP too.

It occurs to me that if people REALLY REALLY want WHOIS, it would not be
terribly hard to write a proxy that puts a WHOIS front end on RDAP
servers.

Here's one that goes the other way:...

If they both reference the same underlying data maybe just leave rwhois
there but make it intentionally slower over time...

If they somehow don't reference the same underlying data, well, fix that
first by maybe just making rwhois a proxy to rdap?

Re: Whois using these ARIN services?? (fwd: Consultation on the Future of ARIN???s Directory Services) John R. Levine via NANOG (Aug 23)

Re: Whois using these ARIN services?? (fwd: Consultation on the Future of ARIN???s Directory Services) John R. Levine via NANOG (Aug 22)
WHOIS is a very old protocol originally defined in RFC 812 in 1982 and
slightly updated by RFCs 954 and 3912. It is much older than the web and
has nothing to do with the web. There are web pages that fetch WHOIS info
(perhaps using RDAP) and display it, but that's something else.

I don't know, but honestly, who cares. Here is a dandy RDAP client that
runs entirely in your browser.

Re: Whois using these ARIN services?? (fwd: Consultation on the Future of ARIN???s Directory Services) John R. Levine via NANOG (Aug 22)
It depends on the registry. Verisign and PIR which run com, net, and org,
still have whois, Identity Digital which runs .info and a lot of other
smaller domains doesn't.

No, it's because people who do domain WHOIS have seen the news from ICANN
and done the small amount of work to move to RDAP.

Re Randy's comment, a lot of info is redacted but again it depends on the
registrar. Everyone still provides registration and...

With the ever increasing ARIN rates, can y’all not afford to continue the service?

As it stands now, every time i use the whois web client (couple times a week), it never loads the first time (on any
device and on any network i’m on) and i have to reload the page.

How hard and expensive can it be to keep a whois webpage up and running?
