Windows Nessus scanning Windows machines.
I'm seeing plugin 22529 triggering when I don't think it should.
In smb_nt_ms06-056.nasl, I see an if test for
v[2] < 50727
I added a security_note call to print out the values of the v array and got
v[2]=-14809. Looks like a signed/unsigned 16-bit int confusion.
This bug affects the Windows version of Nessus.
Thanks,
