Nessus 1.3.3 - KABOOM!!

If anyone is a die hard user of Nessus like I am, don't install this release just yet. It will only run in detached mode right now. I have opened a bug on the Nessus site so maybe 1.3.4 will address this issue.

PLATFORM & VERSION
================
RH Linux with Nessus 1.3.3

ISSUE
================
When you launch NessusWX (the Windows console for the scanner) and attempt a scan, the program terminates unexpectedly.

WORK AROUND
================
Run the scan in detached mode and have the results e-mailed to you.

ADDITIONAL INFO
================
On a positive note, this version scans a hell of a lot faster than previous versions. Also, debugging NASLs is most improved. It will even give you line numbers in the NASL when there is a failure of some sort.

Anyway, hope this helps!

Thanks for the tip.....I was thinking about installing it on my home production box. Glad I didn't. I just got everything how I like it. :D
