All of my scanners are now showing in excess of 32 false positives when checking for missing WIndows patches. I rolled back the plugins to those downloaded on August 19th and everything is fine, but the plugins downloaded since Monday night at 3:00am PDT are creating all these false positives.
Sorry about this - the file smb_hotfixes.inc had a subtle bug that
Nicolas Pouvesle corrected. If you've updated your plugins since this
morning, the problem went away.
