I running Nessus on port 8834 and I when I run this Nmap script

nmap --script nessus-brute -p 8834 <MY_IP>

It gave me this output

Starting Nmap 7.93 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2023-02-03 10:38 Egypt Standard Time
NSOCK ERROR [0.0460s] ssl_init_helper(): OpenSSL legacy provider failed to load.

Nmap scan report for 192.168.189.1
Host is up (0.00s latency).

PORT     STATE SERVICE
8834/tcp open  nessus-xmlrpc

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 17.00 seconds

I tried also to put args to the script

nmap --script nessus-brute --script-args userdb='admin',passdb='adminPass' -p 8834 <MY_IP>

And the same output as before.

    According to [https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/19191](https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/19191) this is a bug in Nmap 7.93 and it can be fixed by installing Nmap 7.92. – Johann Schwarze Feb 03 '23 at 09:14
