Title: Bugs in Wifi Inspector/Avast Premiere
Post by: VanHelsing on February 05, 2019, 03:20:53 AM

Hello- Currently running build 19.1.4142.454 ver. 19.1.2360 Avast Premiere.  intermittently when i run WiFi Inspector it completes scan but display goes past 100 percent.  Ex. says 1037 percent complete even though scan is over.

Also says my Samsung phone is vulnerable to DNS attacks. (Type:HTTP) (CVE-2019-6447) (Port 59777) I have Avast mobile on the phone along with Avast Secureline.  So that's weird. 

I upgraded my cable modem for faster service this week. Before this it would say my Netgear router was vulnerable.(Firmware up to date on router)  After upgrading to faster Arris cable modem it now says phone is vulnerable instead of router.  If phone is not connected to network I get an all clear from the WiFi inspector.  So DNS warning went from wifi router to phone. Before cable modem upgrade all scans with phone connected never had warnings on phone. Very strange?

HP Laptop running Win7
Avast Premiere
Avast Secureline stand alone
