It's unlikely that OpenVAS will at least in the short term include any 
capabilities for the discovery of /new/ web app vulnerabilities however it 
does have the ability to integrate with existing F/OSS tools such as w3af and 
Arachni which do this job much better.

With specific regard to CSRF, it's a difficult class of vulnerability to find 
automatically even with a dedicated tool because the context of the form is 
unlikely to be understood by the tool e.g. is it a search field or a "new 
email" field.
