Current nnikto nasl warpper plugin 1.15 issues a "script_add_preference" command with an parameter nessus 2.2.9 feels is to long. Latest source version 2.2.10 does not think this is a problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Emerge nessus 2. fetch --register 3. /etc/init.d/nessusd restart Actual Results: Plugin 14260 is not available Expected Results: Plugin 14260 is available
I didn't try it with 2.2.10, but the bug is still there with version 2.2.11 for me: * Service nessusd starting Loading the plugins... 3876 (out of 20882)/usr/lib/nessus/plugins/nikto.nasl: bad signature. Will not execute this script /usr/lib/nessus/plugins/nikto.nasl could not be loaded All plugins loaded
Sorry, the original error message is different: Service nessusd starting Loading the plugins... 3876 (out of 20882)nessus-libraries/libnessus/store.c: /usr/lib/nessus/plugins/nikto.nasl has a too long preference-name (69) nikto.nasl failed to load I've filed bug to upsteam: http://bugs.nessus.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1686
Looks like the bug has been fixed in rev 1.16. Frank, could try it?
Still have the error in 2.2.10, but I am on 7 day delayed feed. # /usr/sbin/nessusd Loading the plugins... 15810 (out of 20882)nessus-libraries/libnessus/store.c: /usr/lib64/nessus/plugins/nikto.nasl has a too long preference-name (69) nikto.nasl failed to load Will try with 2.2.11 shortly.
Looks like it is working with nessus-2.2.11.
It has started to load it for me too. I think it was some short delay from nessus update site and it might work with lower versions of nessus as well. Please close the bug. Netmon Herd: sorry for trouble ;)
Seems to be fix, see last post. closing. If still persists, please reopen.
