[ad]<\/p>\n

A new version of SSA (Security System Analyzer) has been released – version 1.5.1.<\/p>\n

SSA is a scanner based on OVAL, the command line tool provided by MITRE is not very easy to use so the guys at Security Database decided to write a GUI to make it simple to use and understand and then free the security testers community to take advantage of it.<\/p>\n

+Based on OVAL 5.2 build 11 (bugs fixed)
\n – Corrected bug in EntityComparator::ParseVersionStr(). Added error checking to the function to enusre that the input version strings are in a valid format.
\n -Removed VC7 project from source distributions.<\/p>\n

Now SSA relies on CPE (common Platform Enumeration) names to display inventories.<\/p>\n

+ SSA now supports VISTA definitions.<\/p>\n

+ Added Menu Help
\n -PDF documentation : link to SSA PDF doc.
\n -OVAL Concept documentation : link to OVAL FAQS.
\n -CPE Concept documentation : link to CPE docs.
\n -[New Security-Database Feature]: Submit a bug about SSA
\n -Security-Database Vulnerability Search : Search information into our cross linked Vulnerability database<\/p>\n

+ Fixed bugs into scan() function
\n -Handle exception: Error while parsed corrupted XML File
\n -Handle exception: Error while using unsupported schema<\/p>\n

+ Fixed a latency in function “stop\/reload”<\/p>\n

+ Fixed the PATH bug. Now SSA can be installed in any directory.<\/p>\n
