For anyone googling, Renaud took care of this in build 3.0.5.263. Im not sure what mainstream build that'll get rolled into, but most likely everything 3.0.6 (or 3.2, whichever comes first) and beyond can be assumed to be fixed.

I had written some scripts to automate my nessus usage, and I began to notice terrible segfault issues. The warnings began to appear roundabout the time 3.0.2 came out, but I believe it was happening beforehand, it just wasnt being verbose about it. I have always noticed Nessus seems to not always scan some of the hosts I tell it to, and it seems as though this is related. I am now using Nessus 3.0.5, and the problem persists.

Thanks for your report.

Few questions :

 - Do you have any custom plugin ?
 - Does doing /opt/nessus/sbin/nessusd -R solve the problem ?


Thanks,
