Package: nessusd
Version: 2.2.5-3
Severity: important

When I try to connect to a 2.2.5-3 server from a 2.2.5-2 or 2.2.5-3
client, the client says after hitting the "Login" button "SSL Error"
and says on stdout "[8157] SSL_connect: error:140943FC:SSL
routines:SSL3_READ_BYTES:sslv3 alert bad record mac". Downgrading the
server to 2.2.5-2 makes the problem go away, upgrading to 2.2.5-3
makes it happen again.

A recompiled 2.2.5-3 on current sid exhibit the same behavior.

I suspect some library issue.

What i find strange: ldd of the working (2.2.5-2) daemon shows that
it's linked to both libssl.so.0.9.8 and libssl.so.0.9.7, while the
non-working (2.2.5-3) daemon is only linked against libssl.so.0.9.7.

I can reproduce the issue in a test chroot, so if you cannot see the
issue on your system, I can give you ssh access to a system that shows
the issue.

This is kind of important as there does not seem to be a possibility
to legally use nessus built from Debian with a registered plugin feed
at the moment.

Greetings
Marc
