the services plugin tries to decide what service is on a port. I think it connects, listens and then starts to send things like web commands, etc. If you indeed have found some 'random' string that services sends to oracle to crash it, and you have all th epatches, then you have found yourself an unknown 'denial of service' condition! document it and sent it to oracle and get your name on bugtraq. -- Michael Scheidell, CEO SECNAP Network Security, LLC Sales: 866-SECNAPNET / (1-866-732-6276) Main: 561-368-9561 / www.secnap.net Looking for a career in Internet security? http://www.secnap.net/employment/ - [EMAIL PROTECTED]: general discussions about Nessus. * To unsubscribe, send a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe nessus" in the body.
