Hello! Just quick explanation on why hydra and snmp portscan C plugins were removed. It's simple. They were empty plugins. I checked if there's any leftover dependency and removed them as both of them were superseeded with nasl equivalents (snmpwalk_portscan.nasl and hydra*nasl). In short, C plugins didn't add any functionalities (empty plugins). I also commited hydra_mysql.nasl and hydra_postgresql, so hydra is definitively supported well in OpenVAS.
For example, this is all code from hydra C plugin (stripped comments): #include <includes.h> int plugin_init(desc) struct arglist * desc; { return -1; } int plugin_run(desc) struct arglist * desc; { return 0; } As you can see it's empty. Hope this will shed some light on why I removed hydra and snmp plugins. If you need more information, don't hesitate to contact/bug me.
