nessus,hello!
Today I found a question about nessus,but I can't confirm it.In nessusd,every plugin needing network connections(tcp/udp) must call a function like "open_sock_tcp()", and it will register the connection in the network module (occupying a position in nessus_connection[] array),as the network module is a part of the dynamic library "libness",If user stops scanning the network or host after the plugin register the connection and befor deregister it,the plugin thread will receive the SIGTERM signal and exit.The item occupied by the terminated thread in nessus_connection[] will not be available unless the nessusd restart,because its member "transport" is not -1.I can't find the nessusd modify the "transport" in processing signal SIGTERM,so I puzzled about it,Who can help me ?
Best regards
