August 2007)</h3> + +<p> +A first deveopment release for testing purposes. +</p> + +<h3>OpenVAS-Client Release 1.0 (ca. August 2007)</h3> + +<p> +The first stable release of the GUI client with some +enhanced features compared to NessusClient 1.X. +</p> + +<h3>OpenVAS Release 1.0 (ca. October 2007)</h3> + +<p> +More or less same functionality +as Nessus-2, but with OpenSSL replaced by GNU/TLS to resolve +license conflict (OpenVAS 1.0 may then be distributed +in binary form even compiled with SSL support which is not +allowed for Nessus. This is regarded relevant at least for +many GNU/Linux distributions). +</p> + +<h2>Ideas for future OpenVAS functionalities</h2> + +<p> +These ideas result from general brain storming +on the openvas-discuss mailing list and OpenVAS deleoper +conferences. +</p> + +<p> +The following items have not yet been decided upon for +the fixed roadmap and may still be subject to discussion. +There is no order in the list, new items are just appended. +</p> + +<ul> +<li> Plugin severity override: + <p> + Some places value some vulnerabilities more than others. + For example: some places rank anonymous CIFS connections + as vital to their business. Others say its a big risk. + Having a front end to override the degree instead of patching the + plugin would be nice. + This is related to ideas about fals-positive marking. + </p> + +<li> Configurable option "Don't automatically add and run new plugins": + <p> + An option to say: "do not add new plugins to the .nessusrc file(s)". + Or maybe, add all new ones as "no". Sometimes I want to run a given + set of plugins periodically. I don't want all new ones to also get run. + </p> + +<li> Direct support of Database: + <p> + OpenVAS Server should optionally write results into a database. + It is to be discussed whether this is done additional to sending + the results via Nessus Protocol. Also the question is open whether + the server manages access to the database directly or whether users + submit DB connection and authorization details so that the + data are written there. + </p> + +<li> Re-connnect to running OpenVAS scans: + <p> + OpenVAS should run in the background without + a permanent connection to the client. + Re-connection should then allow to get the results. + Email notification at scan completion is helpful + as well. + </p> + +<li> New Client-Server protocol: + <p> + Replace the old Nessus Protocol by something + based on standard protocol technologies and + iron out current weaknesses like the chracter encoding. + </p> + +<li> Trace function: + <p> + Show sets of queries. Each query is composed of the rule + that was used, the destination IP and port, the data sent, + and the data returned. This will make it easier to determine false positives. + </p> + +<li> Improved NASL debugging + +<li> Condensed Plugins: + <p> + E.g. all the Debian local security checks could be condensed + into few (for each year). It is not clear yet which other implications + this might mean. + </p> + +<li> Generic Plugins: + <p> + Plugins with some heuristics to generically detect weaknesses + in web applications. + </p> + +<li> Consider popular issue-tracker or helpdesk systems to pull issues from + scan reports, sort them, prioritize and assign them. +</ul> + + + </div> + <div id="footer"> + </div> + </body> +</html> _______________________________________________ Openvas-commits mailing list [email protected] http://lists.wald.intevation.org/mailman/listinfo/openvas-commits
