I recently pen tested a domain I oversee and came across the following holes that were puzzlers.
This happens when the connection is cut for whatever reason. DoS plugins should check that the host is reachable before launching their attacks. I'm not sure that all of them do that. I think that the start_denial() function should be changed: currently it returns nothing, we should return a flag and change the scripts like this: if (! start_denial()) exit(0); (ensuring compatibility with older libnasl needs a slightly more complex code) _______________________________________________ Nessus mailing list Nessus@list.nessus.org http://mail.nessus.org/mailman/listinfo/nessus
