All, I tried using NASL directly to evaluate a host for a single vulnerability, but only get the following output:
[root@computername plugins]# nasl -t xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx smb_nt_ms02-008.nasl smb_nt_ms02-008.nasl : Warning : evaluating unknown variable - description After trying this a couple of times and seeing no helpful info in nessusd.messages, I decided to redirect the output of my command to that log, which appeared to result in a dump file with the following entries repeatedly: /usr/local/lib/nessus/plugins/smb_dom2sid.nasl - Requesting s[139] whereas s's l ength is 133 ! /usr/local/lib/nessus/plugins/smb_enum_services.nasl - Requesting data[2097240] whereas data's length is 1964 ! /usr/local/lib/nessus/plugins/smb_enum_services.nasl - Requesting data[2097240] whereas data's length is 1964 ! /usr/local/lib/nessus/plugins/smb_enum_services.nasl - Requesting data[2097241] whereas data's length is 1964 ! The above goes on for a total of 1.6 MB. Additionally, nessusd.messages was zeroed out. Anyone have any ideas about this? Specifically, what am I doing wrong when trying to use NASL directly?
