Bug#461568: RFP: portbunny -- Linux-kernel-based port-scanner



Hi Moritz,
* Moritz Muehlenhoff <jmm@debian.org> [2008-01-19 16:33]:
> Package: wnpp
> Severity: wishlist
> 
> * Package name    : portbunny
>   Version         : 1.0
>   Upstream Author : Fabian Yamaguchi / Recurity Labs

> 
> "PortBunny is a Linux-kernel-based port-scanner created by Recurity Labs. Its aim
> is to provide a reliable and fast TCP-SYN-port-scanner which performs
> sophisticated timing based on the use of so called "trigger"-packets. The
> port-scan is performed in 2 steps: First the scanner tries to find packets, to
> which the target responds ("triggers"). Second, the actual port-scan is performed.
> During the scan, the triggers, which were found in the first scanning-phase, are
> used to determine the optimal speed at which the target may be scanned."

At the moment portbunny still has some bugs which cause for 
example kernel freezes. I suggest waiting for a bugfix 
release before packaging it.

Kind regards
Nico
