I have been using GSE to run vulnerability scans based on OpenVas, which I export as PDF.
Recently I have started to run CVE Scans, which have produced outstanding CVE’s for the affected host.
However, if i select “Download Filtered Report” and select PDF, the usual front page and host information is displayed, but no actual details of the CVE appear or there details.
As a test i have tried a number of the other formats (as opposed to PDF) i.e XML/TXT/CSV and these all display details of the detected CVE.
Is this known behaviour with CVE & PDF reports? or perhaps a new issue?
I know from the docs that different reports have different output (and that varies by product type) but what you’re seeing sounds a bit weird. Something to try if you’d like is to see if it behaves the same way with a different install (like the trial version in a VM) for comparison.
Thank you for the suggestion Martin, but your suggestion has not changed the report.
The missing CVE data is still not displayed after installing texlive-full.
Thank you Fredrik, but these are already installed.
To clarify, I can successfully export PDF for OpenVas scans, its the content of CVE scans that is the problem.
When i run a CVE scan and select PDF export, no details of the CVE found are displayed within the produced PDF (I do have the front page, and host summary, but no further details). If I export the same scan in other formats (XML/CSV etc) the CVE details are listed as i would expect.
This feels like it is the build file for the PDF, not selecting the CVE details.
