Development has been started on two new plugins. Working versions of a vanilla connect() port scan and a banner grabbing scan are available in CVS. They will be part of sonar 1.2.3. Any suggestions, submit a feature request.

Sonar 1.2.2 Released

red0x — Thu, 06 May 2004 20:22:47 -0000

Today, May 6th 2004, I released sonar 1.2.2! Sonar 1.2.2 contains alot of major useability updates, as well as some placeholder code for new and exciting features in 1.2.3.
I have taken on a few developers, and I am always looking for more. If you are interested in developing for sonar, or any other autosec tools, let me know and we'll get you on board.
Look for sonar 1.2.2 here on sourceforge, or on gentoo's portage.

APG and librand Released

red0x — Sat, 21 Feb 2004 01:00:19 -0000

The first public versions of APG and librand have been released!
APG is the Advanced Password Generator. It is used to automatically generate new passwords for whatever use you feel like putting it to. APG supports the following features:
- Setting maximum percentage of special characters
- Setting the length of generated passwords
- Grouping characters
- Setting a number of passwords to generate
- Setting a random seed file
- One Time Pad Generation
- Printing how many passwords it generated in how many seconds.

librand is an implementation of a GPL version of the Mersenne Twister. It is usable in your projects and is a great a fast psuedo random number generator. APG uses librand to get its randomness.

Both of these great projects are open for help and available for download here: https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=51027

Ebuilds for gentoo should be available shortly

sonar 1.2.1 released

red0x — Sat, 06 Dec 2003 22:23:30 -0000

sonar 1.2.1 sees major updates, including new plugins, better documentation, logging to syslog, and working input/output plugins. You can now compile plugins from outside the sonar source-tree, so once you install sonar, go ahead and start your own plugin projects. Results are now reported in a general format that output plugins can recognize and parse however they want. Fixes for a gcc 2.95 compile bug were included with the help of svrmarty.

Get sonar here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/autosec

sonar 1.2.1 will bring major updates

red0x — Sun, 12 Oct 2003 22:53:32 -0000

The second major release since this summer's hiatus will bring major functionality upgrades. Output plugins will now have an abstract way of receiving data, instead of just a text log. Works in progress include: XML output, machine readable output, and a TTL scan plugin. If you have any other suggestions, feel free to email me.

Call for Hackers!

red0x — Tue, 15 Apr 2003 02:55:05 -0000

I want you to hack my program. Crash it, dump it, tweak it, patch it, and send 'em my way. Analysis papers would be wonderful, but completely optional. Submit any and all patches here: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=51027&atid=461809 . Also, Feature requests, bug reports, and the like should go here: http://autosec.sourceforge.net/helpDesk/index.htm

Thanks!

Patches

red0x — Mon, 21 Oct 2002 05:03:35 -0000

At various times in the development cycle, patches are made and uploaded. I upload the patches for various projects to the helpdesk on the home page (http://autosec.sourceforge.net/helpDesk). To find patches, first, update to the most current version, then look through the bugs posted on the helpdesk. Bugs with uploaded files named xx-sonar.patch.gz are patches. The 'xx' will correspond to the bug number. To install the patches, download them to the top-level source directory of sonar, type 'gunzip xx-sonar.patch.gz; patch -p1 < xx-sonar.patch' and all should be well.

If you have any problems, submit them to the helpdesk.
