Hey everyone, Just a follow up to my last enquiries .... So, is this already possible OpenVAS 9 Beta ? I am actually curious because I am writing an application that would send queries about vulnerabilities to the NVT cache. Another possibility is if the central repository has a REST interface?
Can anyone offer some suggestions on the possibility/options i.e. for querying the OpenVAS NVT Cache from other applications. Many thanks.
