Skip port scanning and just check for vulnerabilities

How To
1

Hi, I am using Version 22.9.1. I’ve already done a scan of my internal networkw with nmap, and I have my custom port list.
How can I configure scan in order to NOT repeat port scanning, but just check for vulnerabilities?
Thank you very much!

Hi,

You need to write your own portscan-plugin importing your previous scan-resutls.

Normally the scan-pipeline needs to get a open-port via any of the GVM port-scanner (boreas, nmap, etc …) to follow the vulnerability tests fitting to the found open ports. If you skip this you need to tell the scan-engine what ports are open.
