Hm.. I looks like a bug in async-http @postmodern ?
What arguments did you pass to ronin-recon run @yantongggg ?

[postmodern]

@yantongggg nice find. This does appear to be a async-http bug. I'll report it upstream.

[postmodern]

@yantongggg also what version of Ruby are using? I'm trying to reproduce this bug locally.

[yantongggg]

@AI-Mozi
i running this command
ronin-recon run youtube.com
but run for example.com also coming out this error

[yantongggg]

@postmodern
ruby version:
ruby 3.1.2p20 (2022-04-12 revision 4491bb740a) [x86_64-linux-gnu]

[postmodern]

@yantongggg confirmed that this occurs on ruby-3.1.2, but not 3.1.6.

$ irb -r uri/wss -r async/http
irb(main):001:0> 

Apparently in uri/wss isn't required by default. However, there's a quick fix for this. Running gem update uri will install a newer version of the uri gem.

$ gem update uri
$ irb -r async/http
irb(main):001:0> 

You may want to run sudo gem update uri since you're using the system's ruby.
