Re: Local Security Checks on HP-UX

There is a bug in ssh_get_info.nasl for HP-UX.
Local checks should work if the scanned HP-UX server is not the nessusd server too (localhost pread cmd is missing for HP-UX);

localhost check should be added tomorrow anyway.

Regards,

Nicolas

Hello All,
We are glad to see Local Security Checks being enabled for HP-UX
platforms. It's been a great work. One more milestone for Nessus project.

Today, I downloaded latest Nessus soucre, build it on my HP-UX 11.11 machine.
I could find all my 7060 pluggins were loaded. And I created the ssh keys as per
the doument present at the link;
http://www.nessus.org/documentation/index.php?doc=ssh

Also enabled them on Nessus GUI under the "Credentials Tab". And disabled
all plugins.

And enabled only "Enable Local Security Check" under General option and then
enabled all plugins under the "HP-UX Local Security Checks". When scanning is
over, I could not any things mentioning about the local security checks and patch
details of my HP-UX machines. Instead the nessusd.message tells that all those
plugins dealing with HP-UX Local Security Checks" were not lauched.

Snippets of nessusd.message are;
