a coupla questions regarding the attack... 1) i was going thru the cve list (cve.mitre.org) and it contains close to 6,500 vuls. why is it then that nessus only has about 2,000... have the remaining vuls have been left out intentionally for not being useful enough or is it just the sheer number vuls that makes it hard to catch up with and write an exploit/check for?
2) one of the postings on the forums mentioned that knowing the application version number was *NOT* important in launching the attack. does this mean that if an ftp service is detected, ALL ftp attacks are launched, regardless of the ftp application version? thanks in advance. ~vanEck(); __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
