Hi all,

When changing the include_folders and plugins_folder configs of openvas from the default plugin folder to a folder that contain only the plugin_feed_info.inc file and nmap.nasl script, I noticed the following strange VT update behavior:

  • All notus VTs info are updated each time PLUGIN_SET is changed.
  • When I modify the existing VT or add new VTs, these VTs’s info are not updated, no hash mismatch found.
