The same page records a compact lineage: Synscan versions up to 3.9b6 were based on version 1.6 by psychoid/tCl, while Synscan 5.0 was a complete rewrite with a cleaner codebase, efficiency improvements, checksum fixes, adjustable scan timing, and a simpler design intended to allow future IPv6 support. ### Adoptionsgeschichte The input package facts show Homebrew packaging for `synscan`. Upstream also lists releases as tarballs and says the tool was known to compile on Linux, xBSD, Mac OS X, and Solaris, which explains why a portable Unix package manager would carry it. ### Wie es verwendet wird synscan is used from the command line to perform half-open TCP port scans against ranges of destination addresses. Its companion executable `sslog` is also listed in the Homebrew-derived input facts. The tool sits in the older Unix security-tool tradition: focused source tarballs, direct packet behavior, and terse CLI usage rather than a large service or framework. ### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren Package nerds care about synscan because it is the kind of sharp, single-purpose network tool that package managers preserve even when its upstream surface is just a small project page and release tarballs. Its portability notes across Linux, BSD, macOS, and Solaris make it a good example of formula maintenance for low-level networking code. ### Zeitleiste - Pre-5.0: Synscan versions through 3.9b6 were based on version 1.6 by psychoid/tCl. - 5.0: Synscan was rewritten with efficiency, checksum, timing, and design changes. - 5.02: The digit-labs page lists synscan-5.02.tar.gz as the newest non-beta release. ### Related projects - The official page points to the earlier bindshell.net synscan page and credits version 1.6 by psychoid/tCl as the base for older releases. - In package taxonomies, synscan is adjacent to other TCP port scanners and packet-level security utilities. ### Quellen - - input source_facts.executables and source_facts.package-manager ## Sicherheitshinweise broad file, network, media, or database tool signal. - **Geiger-Risiko:** blue / mittel - broad file, network, media, or database tool signal ## Details aus der Quelldatenbank - **Source Database:** Homebrew formula API - **Tap:** homebrew/core - **Full Name:** synscan - **Version Scheme:** 0 - **Revision:** 1 - **Bottle Stable Root URL:** - **Deprecated:** no - **Disabled:** no - **Keg Only:** no - **URL Keys:** stable ## Verwandte Links - [Secret-risk packages](https://pkg.so/de/secret-risk-packages/) - Has protected-tool coverage, approval-gate, or non-low Geiger security signals. - [Terminal utility packages](https://pkg.so/de/terminal-utilities/) - Matched terminal and command-line workflow metadata. - [Networking and protocol packages](https://pkg.so/de/networking-protocol-tools/) - Matched network, protocol, or remote-service metadata. - [Security and crypto packages](https://pkg.so/de/security-crypto-tools/) - Matched security, identity, cryptography, password, signing, or certificate metadata. - [libpcap](https://pkg.so/de/brew/libpcap/) - Runtime dependency declared by Homebrew. - [masscan](https://pkg.so/de/brew/masscan/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, port-scanner, security, tcp. - [nmap](https://pkg.so/de/brew/nmap/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, port-scanner, security. - [rustscan](https://pkg.so/de/brew/rustscan/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, port-scanner, security. - [naabu](https://pkg.so/de/brew/naabu/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, port-scanner, security. - [scilla](https://pkg.so/de/brew/scilla/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, port-scanner, security. - [rshijack](https://pkg.so/de/brew/rshijack/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, security, tcp. - [openssl@3](https://pkg.so/de/brew/openssl-3/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, security. - [gnutls](https://pkg.so/de/brew/gnutls/) - Shares pkgdb curated category or tags: cli, security. ## Combined YAML source View the package source record on GitHub.
