Nagios::Plugin provides some common routines for writing Nagios plugins.
The idea is to make it as easy as possible for developers to conform to the
Nagios plugin guidelines.
Darkstat is a packet sniffer which runs as a background process on
a cable/DSL router, gathers all sorts of useless but interesting
statistics, and serves them over HTTP. Features:
* Traffic graphs.
* Tracks traffic per host.
* Tracks traffic per TCP and UDP port for each host.
* Embedded web-server with deflate compression.
* Asynchronous reverse DNS resolution using a child process.
* Small. Portable. Single-threaded. Efficient.

nepim stands for network pipemeter, a tool for measuring available
bandwidth between hosts. nepim is also useful to generate network
traffic for testing purposes. nepim operates in client/server mode, is
able to handle multiple parallel traffic streams, reports periodic
partial statistics along the testing, and supports IPv6.

POE::Component::IRC is a POE component (who'd have guessed?) which acts
as an easily controllable IRC client for your other POE components and
sessions. You create an IRC component and tell it what events your
session cares about and where to connect to, and it sends back
interesting IRC events when they happen. You make the client do things
by sending it events.

* Set SO_REUSEADDR for listening socket so that there's no need to
wait for it to time out to reopen the same port
* Fixed a crash when changing file priorities and another caused by
torrents with empty directories.
* Added the load, load_run, stop_untied and remove_untied options. See
the example rtorrent.rc for how to use these to watch a directory
for new torrents.
* Fixed a buffer overflow in the peer connection's write buffer that
could in some rare cases cause a crash.
rbldnsd is a small and fast DNS daemon which is especially made to serve
DNSBL zones. This daemon was inspired by Dan J. Bernstein's rbldns
program found in the djbdns package.

This module implements a interface to the information contained in an
nmap scan. It is implemented by parsing the xml scan data that is
generated by nmap. This will enable anyone who utilizes nmap to quickly
create fast and robust security scripts that utilize the powerful port
scanning abilities of nmap.

Transmission is a free, lightweight BitTorrent client. It features
a simple, intuitive interface on top on an efficient, cross-platform
back-end.

Scapy is a powerful interactive packet manipulation program. It is
able to forge or decode packets of a wide number of protocols, send
them on the wire, capture them, match requests and replies, and much
more. It can easily handle most classical tasks like scanning,
tracerouting, probing, unit tests, attacks or network discovery (it
can replace hping, 85% of nmap, arpspoof, arp-sk, arping, tcpdump,
tethereal, p0f, etc.). It also performs very well at a lot of other
specific tasks that most other tools can't handle, like sending
invalid frames, injecting your own 802.11 frames, combining technics
(VLAN hopping+ARP cache poisoning, VOIP decoding on WEP encrypted
channel, ...), etc.

The Dictionary Server Protocol (DICT) is a TCP transaction based
query/response protocol that allows a client to access dictionary
definitions from a set of natural language dictionary databases.
This package contains a client which can access DICT servers from
the command line.

* Security Vulnerability affecting OpenVPN 2.0 through 2.0.5.
An OpenVPN client connecting to a
malicious or compromised server could potentially receive
"setenv" configuration directives from the server which could
cause arbitrary code execution on the client via a LD_PRELOAD
attack.
