Describe the bug
It seems netdiscover passes under the radar of opensnitch. I'm not actually sure what type of sockets netdiscover uses, so I don't know if this is expected.

Include the following information:

  • OpenSnitch version. 1.6.5.1-1 (installed from distro + ebpf from AUR)
  • OS: Arch Linux
  • Version: rolling release
  • Window Manager: KDE Plasma 6.1.4
  • Kernel version: Linux athena 6.10.8-zen1-1-zen #1 ZEN SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Wed, 04 Sep 2024 15:18:31 +0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install netdiscover: pacman -S netdiscover
  2. Enable opensnitch and verify it works with "normal" programs (getting popups etc)
  3. Run netdiscover.
  4. OpenSnitch doesn't detect or block netdiscover's network access. And netdiscover works as if opensnitch wasn't there.

Post error logs:
I don't see any relevant error logs in this case.

Expected behavior (optional)
Netdiscover shouldn't be able to bypass opensnitch.
