    Hi to all.

    Some day ago I was quite surprised to see that on a server that was
    scanned with nessus and with emaze scanner that revealed no relevant
    security hole, there was oracle installed and active with all the
    default oracle user/password activated (i.e. system/manager,
    scott/tiger, etc).

    What VA tool can find default user on oracle? Is it possible to find
    that info with Nessus (perhaps I can't use it at its best)?

    Best Regards,
                    Massimo
    PS
    I usually activate all the check on nessus and emaze.
