Environment Background: Machine running Websphere on several ports, each
with SSL enabled.
Problem: Toggling 'ALL' under 'Test SSL Based Services' in the Prefs ->
Services menu, nessus seems to loop on various checks until the defined
plugin timeout occurs, and the NessusClient seems frozen while in this
loop.
If toggling 'Known SSL Ports' in the same menu, the scan will fly by
because it will only do SSL checks on port 443. Because the websphere
applications each run on a seperate port, and with SSL, there is
something in the plugins that is causing it to loop / hang.
While trying to perform a manual check, we noticed that the port would
close quickly, which might be the reason for the nessus check to loop.
Any ideas in this problem? Is it a plugin problem, is it the tcp port
closing quickly that causes the problem, is it a plugin timeout problem?
Feedback would be greatly appreciated, as I have lots of these devices
in the environment I test in. Thanks!
