Hello,

If the data contains more than 1 line

In stdnse.make_buffer() only  a piece of seperated data would be
returned where the data need not be seperated only by "\n".

But in socket:recieve_lines(1) all the data would be read . Here 1 is
the minimum number of lines to be read.

Here is the link for the code of make_buffer()
