Having just setup OpenVAS, I test scanned the local machine, and a couple issues were noted. I tried to scan my server that is only listening on two obscure ports, and I setup a port list with only these two ports in it, bound it to a target (the IP of this host), and then I ran a "full and fast" scan. The scan finishes very fast - about 2 minutes, and the report comes back with no open ports, the severity shows N/A, the report shows "0 results", but it does show "However, this report contains 1 host." I'm not sure if nmap could be a problem, since running ./openvas-check-setup yield the following:
WARNING: Your version of nmap is not fully supported: 6.47
SUGGEST: You should install nmap 5.51 if you plan to use the nmap
NSE NVTs.
I've seen various posts commenting on this, but I've not found a resolution.
Can anyone throw some ideas at me as to what I might try? Thanks
