Command Line Vulnerability scanner

Hi,
It’s been a long time since I used OpenVAS. Now, for an internal project, I need to create tasks from the command line, pass targets, and generate a report. Once I was able to do everything by invoking the ‘omp’ command. Now, I see things have completely changed. Can you give me a starting point to achieve this goal? Thanks a lot.

Hi,

the omp tool got replaced by gvm-tools. You can find gvm-tools at https://github.com/greenbone/gvm-tools

Unashamedly lifted some of those scripts and added a few others/modified for my automation purposes: https://github.com/martinboller/greenbone-gmp-scripts

Hope they are useful.

Hi @martinboller , i’m using your scripts, thank you.
I have a question about starting a task.
How can i do this?
Thanks.

Sorry for newer (till now) answering - there’s a start-scans.gvm.py script (and other changes in the repo now).

@martinboller I still would love to integrate your scripts into gvm-tools. Thus I am looking forwards for PRs :slight_smile:

Sorry there too - 2023 (and 2024 so far) has been quite insane. Will try and get my act together :blush:
