I'm getting a repeatable segmentation violation using the new client. Following the directions provided by Renaud in the RC1 client announcement, I tried to submit a bug report under the "NessusClient" category, but I can't find such a category. The only ones I can find are Nessus, nessus-installer, NessusWX, and www.nessus.org. I have an strace file (~800k gzipped). Basically, I created a task named "kite" and a scope named "kite". (The target's hostname, not surprisingly, is "kite.") nessusd is running on localhost. When I execute the scan, the "Receiving plugins" popup appears and progresses through the loading of 8500+ plugins. Then the "Receiving dependencies" process begins, and when it reaches 8500, the SIGSEGV occurs and the client windows disappear.
I have heard from two other people experiencing the same.
Personally, I can't reproduce the problem with 9000+ plugins.
I also can' reproduce it with the GPL-feed during all my tests.
Thank you for the strace. Maybe it helps to find the bug.
Can anyone else also confirm this bug?
James, have you retried with the current registered feed?
Best
Jan
