This is a release announcement for OpenVAS Client 2.0.2 (www.openvas.net)
Changes in 2.0.2:
* The timeout-setting functionality has been made more robust. It has been moved
to the plugin info dialog to make accessing this functionality easier.
* A counter column for log messages has been added.
* XML exports: A bug (http://bugs.openvas.org/867) which caused a corrupted
protocol attribute during XML export when service names contained slashes has
been fixed. This also fixes another bug which caused service names to show up
in the protocol attribute.
* A bug which prevented the display of signatures due to sometimes different
"fingerprint" lengths has been fixed.
* A bug which prevented the client from correctly determining certain server
preference settings has been fixed.
* Established automated source code documentation. HTML-Version is available
under http://www.openvas.org/src-doc/openvas- ... index.html
* Openvas-client now uses the IANA-assigned port 9390 for communication
with the server.
* A bug (http://bugs.openvas.org/858) which cause a segmentation fault when
trying to list preferences or plugins on the command line without enabling
batch mode has been fixed.
* Support for improved management of SSH credentials has been added in
accordance with Change Request #20 (http://www.openvas.org/openvas-cr-20.html)
* The "Silent Dependencies" option now defaults to "no". Setting this option to
"yes" causes possible error messages from NVTs executed as dependencies to not
show up in client which is not desirable from a security viewpoint.
To upgrade:
yum upgrade openvas-client
