Nessus scan of FW2 failed - credentials were no provided for detected PAN-OS WebUI service

L0 Member

When performing a NESSUS scan of FW1, errors return:

Remote host was not identified as a known device or operating system and the execution of "uname -a" failed.

 

NESSUS returned the following error:

Enter old password:

 

This NESSUS scan works on three other FWs successfully

Plugin:  ssh_get_info.nasl (#12634)

Plugin:  no_local_checks_credentials.nasl (#110723)

 

The credentials have been validated within the scan policy... and works on three other FWs.

Hi @MichStrickland ,

 

I would check FW1 administrators and verify the Nessus scanner account is present and update the credentials to what is expected on the other firewalls.
