Known Issues:
- VMware offline scanning is supported only for virtual machines with Windows installed as the guest operating system.
- For Vulnerability Management (formerly Retina) 651 and UVM embedded scanners, database scanning works only for Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle databases. MySQL database scanning is not supported.
- Authentication requirements for custom audits are not properly defined.
- After the Retina Engine service has stopped, the raw packet driver continues to run.
- When using the Retina Local Scan Service option, SCAP scan jobs running against Red Hat targets could take several minutes to enter a paused or scan-restricted state.
Notes:
- Features that use the Microsoft .NET framework - including SCAP support, the audit modification and customization dialogs, PowerShell integration, reporting, and the guided user interface - require Microsoft .NET 4.5.2 or higher.
- Network Security Scanner 6.4.0 and higher install the Microsoft Universal C runtime.
- Network Security Scanner 6.4.0 and higher install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 x86 runtimes.
- Network Security Scanner 6.0.1 and higher install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 x86 runtimes.
- To scan offline VMware virtual machines without having to power them on prior to scanning, you must have BeyondInsight installed.
- VMware offline scanning requires VMware's Virtual Disk Development Kit (VDDK). Please see KB001042 for directions for obtaining and installing the VMware VDDK (http://kb.beyondtrust.com/home/viewkb/KB001042).
- Scanning of MySQL databases depends upon the prior installation of an ODBC driver; Connector/ODBC 5.1 or higher is recommended.
- Database scanning will yield the best results with the most powerful users; for MySQL, this will be the 'root' user; for Oracle, it will be the 'sys' user acting 'AS SYSDBA'.
- Scanning of Amazon Web Services instances requires BeyondInsight.
