Hi

I am trying to get a pdf report using gvm-cli command as below .
(using gvm-cli 20.10.1 , gvmd-20.08)

gvm-cli --gmp-username usernmae --gmp-password password socket --socketpath /opt/gvm/var/run/gvmd.sock --xml “<get_reports report_id=“report_id” format_id=“c402cc3e-b531-11e1-9163-406186ea4fc5” filter=“apply_overrides=0 levels=hmlgf rows=100 min_qod=70 first=1 sort-reverse=severity”/>” |grep -oP ‘(?<=</report_format>)[^<]+’|base64 -d > test.pdf

This command does give me a pdf report . But there are no results in it . It gives me empty report .

Whereas I can generate report from GUI by applying necessary filters.

Can I know what is the correct gvm-cli command to get a full pdf report ?

Thanks

Already answered several times here already. You need to include “ignore_pagination” in your filter.

filter=“apply_overrides=0 levels=hmlgf min_qod=70 first=1 sort-reverse=severity ignore_pagination=1”

Hello @bricks

This is not working .I still get an empty report .

Did you check if the report actually has some content for example in GSA? It is very likely that your scan report is just empty.

Report not empty from GSA, the scan has identified few vulnerabilities and the pdf report which is fetched from GSA has these contents .

Hello

Is there any workaround or alternate solution to get the full pdf report via command line ?

Thanks

ok , it is working for me now (even without using ignore_pagination )

ignore my previous comment
'details=True ', adding this argument solved my issue
