Package: nessus
Version: 2.0.10a-3
Severity: critical
Tags: security
Justification: breaks the whole system
Even with no checks enabled it will hang...
ie seven minutes and no progress on the progress bar.
This renders the package unusable for its intended
function. The portmap does work correctly however;
but if I just wanted a portscan I would run nmap <G>.
This affects security as I and a lot of people use
Nessus as a network monitor.
