Connection TCP reset during grace-time-check crashes program

agibson2 opened this issue · 1 comments

While waiting with the connection open during the grace-time-check, If a connection is reset by the server or by some other network device between the systems, the program crashes and doesn't display any results. I created a patch for it and made a small addition to catch the ConnectionResetError and changed the text to say Session was reset instead of Session was closed. I left it as being vulnerable in my change. Maybe creating a new category for network errors and put a new report section for those might be the best idea instead of leaving it in the vulnerable category, but since I am aware of what it means, I just left it.

The changes are here...
If you want this change, I can submit a pull request for it.
