1.1.14 :

. changes by Renaud Deraison (deraison at nessus.org)
- SMB fixes (thanks to Michael Scheidell)
- When the safe checks option is enabled, dangerous tests with no

  (thanks to Michael Scheidell and Stefan Esser)

  aborting an on-going test

  range longer than 255 chars

- Ported under Cygwin

. changes by Michel Arboi (arboi at algoriel.fr)
- Added nessus-mkrand for hosts with no /dev/random AND no EGD
  running

1.1.6 :

. changes by Renaud Deraison (deraison at nessus.org)
- EGD support for OpenSSL (do ./configure --enable-egd=/path/to/egd/socket
  in nessus-libraries)
- KB items are now stored with individual dates instead of a global
  date for the whole KB file. Yes, this means you have to delete your

- nessus-mkcert checks that the certificates were really created
  before congratulating the user

- fixed no404.nasl

1.1.4 :

. changes by Renaud Deraison (deraison at nessus.org) :

- the client better handles the scan of big networks
- nmap_wrapper now updates its progress bar
- nessus-update-plugins support proxies (with or without authentication)

  a database behind the client (by default flatfiles are used)

  process randomly
- minor fix in the tcp_ping() function of NASL (ack would be set
  to non-zero for a syn packet)
- fixed Alexis's ftp_write_dirs.nes & ftp_bounce_scan.nes

. changes by Michel Arboi (arboi at noos.fr) :
- find_services accepts password-protected .pem files
- patches in the way files were transmitted between the client
  and the server (which could end up in a deadlock)

. changes by Alexis de Bernis <alexisb at tpfh.org) :

1.1.3 :

. changes by Renaud Deraison (deraison at nessus.org) :

  the remote CGIs, in order to find the most blantantly broken
  ones

  CGI.

  out plugins you don't want to see.

  is 1241 now.

. changes by Renaud Deraison (deraison at nessus.org) :
- added the plugin 'webmirror.nasl', which extracts the list of
  CGIs used by a remote web server (and will do much more).
- fixed a problem in NASL due to the SSL patch that would cause
  a fd leak with some plugins.
- added a new plugin category (ACT_DESTRUCTIVE_ATTACK) for plugins
  that may harm the remote host.
- SSL certificates & key can be imported
- corrected a bug introduced in 1.1.0 that would make the client not display
  the name of the plugin currently being run.
- sending signal SIGUSR1 to nessusd makes the grandfather process (the one
  who listens on tcp ports) die without killing its children, thus
  allowing a smooth upgrade of nessusd
- updated config.guess and config.sub

1.1.1 :

. changes by Renaud Deraison (deraison at nessus.org) :
- fixed mem leaks in NASL
- fixed a bug introduced in 1.1.0 regarding recv_line()
- fixed a bug introduced in 1.1.0 in the process management of the plugins
  (all the KB would not be filled, resulting in incomplete tests)

- per users plugins

Of course several new plugins were added as well.
