Summary | 0004164: Old version of ncat.exe in ncat-w32 incompatible SSL with current ncat 7.60 | ||||
Description | When using the Kali provided ncat.exe binary to set up SSL encrypted connections, the Windows binary and Kali binary cannot negotiate an SSL connection. The root cause is that the Windows binary can only connect using SSLv3, and the Kali binary does not support SSLv3 anymore. This issue was encountered during the lab exercises for PWK. Please resolve this issue by packaging a newer version of ncat (preferably with a statically included DLL, see below) in ncat-w32. | ||||
Steps To Reproduce |
Expected result: Actual result: Ncat: Version 5.59BETA1 ( http://nmap.org/ncat ) When connecting the Windows ncat to the Kali ncat, the errors are: ncat -nvlp 4444 --sslNcat: Version 7.60 ( https://nmap.org/ncat ) Please note that this can also be reproduced using a Windows to run the Windows executable. It is not a Wine issue. | ||||
Additional Information | A workaround for this issue is to download the latest version of Windows x86 nmap and using ncat 7.60 on Windows. However, to run this version of ncat, MSVCR120.dll must be present on the Windows system (installed by Visual C++ Redistributable Packages for Visual Studio 2013). As such it would be best if Kali provides a package with a monolithic exe that contains all necessary dependencies if possible. | ||||
Due to the age of the OS (Kali Moto [v1], Kali Safi [v2], Kali Rolling 2016.x/2017.1), these legacy versions are no longer supported. Please could you see if you are able to replicate this issue with the latest version of Kali Linux - https://www.kali.org/downloads/)? If you are still facing the same problem, feel free to re-open the ticket. If you choose to do this, could you provide more information to the issue you are facing,and also give information about your setup? |
