Berikut adalah  CHANGELOG entri sejak versi 5.2.0:

o [Zenmap] Added a workaround for a Ubuntu 9.10 Python packaging
  idiosyncrasy.  As of version python2.6-2.6.4-0ubuntu3, Ubuntu's
  distutils modifies self.prefix, a variable we use in the setup.py
  script. This would cause Zenmap to look in the wrong place for its
  configuration files, and show the dialog "Error creating the
  per-user configuration directory" with the specific error "[Errno 2]
  No such file or directory: '/usr/share/zenmap/config'". This problem
  was reported by Chris Clements, who also helped debug. [David]

o Fixed an error that occurred when UDP scan was combined with version
  scan. UDP ports would appear in the state "unknown" at the end of
  the scan, and in some cases an assertion failure would be raised.
  This was an unintended side effect of the memory use reduction
  changes in 5.20. The bug was reported by Jon Kibler. [David]

o [NSE] Did some simple bit-flipping on the nmap_service.exe program
  used by the smb-psexec script, to avoid its being falsely detected
  as malware by dumb antivirus signatures. [Ron]

o [NSE] Fixed a bug in http.lua that could lead to an assertion
  failure. It happened when there was an error getting the a response
  at the beginning of a batch in http.pipeline. The symptoms of the
  bug were:
    NSE: Received only 0 of 1 expected reponses.
    Decreasing max pipelined requests to 0.
    NSOCK (0.1870s) Write request for 0 bytes...
    nmap: nsock_core.c:516: handle_write_result: Assertion `bytesleft > 0' failed.
  The error was reported by Brandon Enright and pyllyukko.

o [NSE] Restored the ability of http.head to return a body if the
  server returns one. This was lost in the http.lua overhaul from
  5.20. [David]

o [NSE] Fixed the use of our strict.lua library on distributions that
  install their own strict.lua. The error message was
    nse_main.lua:97: attempt to call a boolean value
  It was reported by Onur K. [Patrick]

o Fixed handing of nameserver entries in /etc/resolv.conf so it could
  handle entries containing more than 16 bytes, which can occur with
  IPv6 addresses.  Gunnar Lindberg reported the problem and
  contributed an initial patch, then Brandon and Kris refined and
  implemented it.

o [NSE] Corrected a behavior change in http.request that was
  accidentally made in 5.20: it could return nil instead of a table
  indicating failure. [David]

o [NSE] Fixed the use of an undefined variable in smb-enum-sessions,
  reported by Brandon. [Ron]

o Fixed a compiler error when --without-liblua is used. [Brandon]

o [NSE] Fixed an error with running http-enum.nse along with the
  --datadir option. The script would report the error
    http-enum.nse:198: bad argument #1 to 'lines'
      (nselib/data/http-fingerprints: No such file or directory)
  The error was reported by Ron Meldau and Brandon. [Kris]

o Added a function that was missing from http-favicon.nse. Its absence
  would cause the error
    http-favicon.nse:141: variable 'dirname' is not declared
  when a web page specified an relative icon URL through the link
  element. This bug was reported by Ron Meldau. [David]

o Fixed a bug with the decoding of NMAP OID component values greater
  than 127. [Patrik Karlsson, David]
