Althought Microsoft categorized MS07-004 as a CRITICAL (High Priority), Nessus Plugin ID 24000 only detects it as a Medium Warning.

We use CVSS base scores as a measure of risk; Microsoft uses its own system. And sometimes there will be discrepancies.

That said, we score vulnerabilities initially by ourselves and then sync with those reported in NIST's National Vulnerability Database, http://nvd.nist.gov/nvd.cfm. As part of today's sync, the score on the plugin has been updated to High.

According to the nessusd logs, the scan was successful and there were no errors.

First, make sure that nessusd is logging the whole attack (ie, "log_whole_attack = yes" in nessusd.conf). Then, look in the nessusd.messages log file for lines involving smb_nt_ms07-004.nasl.

I am just trying to look for causes in which my Nessus client would skip looking at the plugins, maybe because of authentication (which i double-checked), or some other dependency...

Are you doing anything with KB saving that would prevent the plugin from running?
