db.rb assumes that multi/handler sessions have a ParentModule defined
in their datastore. This assumption breaks when a user sets up a
multi/handler by hand to receive a session from another user (e.g.,
via multi_meter_inject).
When db.rb tries to access a member of a nil ParentModule, a
stacktrace is dumped to framework.log.
[fixes RM7269]
we discussed the solution to this bug a lot on IRC and in the ticket
itself, the consensus was to fix it as far upstream as possible before
sending to the parsers so as to avoid any future bugs of the same
nature, so this commit adds a check to import_nmap_xml to see if the
data is empty before passing it on to the parser, whether that parser
is nokogiri or the legacy parser.
db_nmap -h now produces the expected output and db_nmap still works as
expected.
* Fixes a bug in shikata where input greater than 0xffff length would
still use 16-bit counter
* Short circuits finding bad xor keys if there are no bad characters to
avoid
* Fixes huge performance issue with large inputs to xor-based encoders
due to the use of String#+ instead of String#<< in a loop. It now
takes ~3 seconds on modern hardware to encode a 750kB buffer with
shikata where it used to take more than 10 minutes. The decoding side
takes a similar amount of time and will increase the wait between
sending the second stage and opening a usable session by several
seconds.
I believe this addresses the intent of pull request 905
[See #905]
[FixRM #7539] - The valid?() function will first normalize() the
user-supplied input before validation. The problem is that the
normalize() function will ALWAYS convert data to integer, therefore
whatever you validate, you will always get true. For example:
when I do "yomama".to_i, that returns 0, and of course will pass
integer validation.
When db_disconnect is issued, this funtion does not update the status
of self.migrated to false. So when another reload command is used,
the update_module_details function will still try to connect to the
database, which causes the "Failed to reload" error.
If BufferRegister is in lower-case, then gen_decoder_prefix will
return nil. When the return value is nil, other functions like
gen_decoder() will backtrace due to a "undefined method "+" for nil"
error. Therefore, this input should NOT be case-sensitive.
Also, if for some reason the user supplies an invalid BufferRegister,
the function should be aware of that and warn the user about the
bad input.
