You mean alert 68, from plugin #14641, right?

For some reason, the plugin isn't seeing the Oracle tnslsnr
version as 9.2.0.6 -- if it were, it wouldn't classify it as
vulnerable. Can you locate the KB for one of the vulnerable
machines -- it will be something like
/usr/local/var/nessus/users/$user/kb/$target -- and do the
following:

  grep "oracle_tnslsnr/" $kb

Also, how long ago did you upgrade? Are you reusing the
knowledge base when you do a scan? If so, what are your
setings under the KB tab?
