Malbait

Status: Surveyed · skipped (lab build/runtime)
Upstream: https://github.com/batchmcnulty/Malbait · GitHub last push 2024-04-27

Skip reason

Malbait is a Perl multi-process honeypot designed to bind many privileged ports via -defaults under root. Containerizing it safely while avoiding collisions with other UHBS labs (and without forking dozens of background listeners) was not completed within the batch window. Generic TCP grading on a single port was attempted conceptually but no reproducible image start was verified, so no UHQS was published.

No UHBS quick/full grade was published for this target in batch C.

Named product is evaluation proof only — not a UHBS endorsement.

Why this page exists

UHBS publishes evaluation notes for products that were surveyed during conformance work even when a full UHQS grade is not available. Analysts should treat this as a gap / skip note, not a silent omission from the catalog.

What analysts should do next

  • Re-queue when a reproducible Docker or inventory recipe exists on the UHBS uhbs-lab bridge network without host-only networking tricks.
  • Do not invent UHQS numbers for skipped products.
  • Track deferred multi-protocol surfaces separately if only one protocol was ever graded elsewhere.

Trust

Informative only · UHBS 4.2.2 · not an endorsement. See READING-UHQS.md for how graded proofs should be read when artifacts exist.
