Listing all NVT's in a report

How To
1

Hi all,

I have run a scan on a single host. And I can read and download the report. The report only lists the “failed” nvt’s.
For audit purposes I would like a report with all the nvt’s that has been tried in the scan. Also the ones that passed.
Is there a way to do this?

Best regards,
Mads

As far as I know that is not possible. Maybe you can inspect the logs of the scanner to gather which NVTs have been run. But in general you can only list results which are generated from/by NVTs, but not all NVTs are generating results.

@MadsAndreasen well.

set log_whole_attack = yes and then modify generate script to write that to raport.

Thanks @Eero

I’m quite new to openvas - Can you point me to where I set that configuration parameter and the generate script?

@MadsAndreasen

This is a very demanding change, and unfortunately, I cannot provide you with further guidance. I recommend consulting a specialist. This is not a standard parameter but requires modifications to the system.

So, if you’re not sure what needs to be done here, it can be resolved with the help of a paid expert.

@MadsAndreasen my solution logs scripts to log and then parses the logs and adds it to report pdf.

did minor test and it works
