How can I properly scan for just ONE CVE?

Is this possible with OpenVAS or will it scan a system(s) for ALL identified CVEs? Thanks in advance!

Hi @CDS2021,

You can create custom scan configurations which should work. Here’s the link on how to create one:

I think you’ll want to start with an empty one, and then add the NVT for the single CVE.
