Bug#950834: ITP: ospd-openvas -- OSP server implementation to allow GVM to remotely control OpenVAS



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Sophie Brun <sophie@offensive-security.com>

* Package name    : ospd-openvas
  Version         : 1.0.0
  Upstream Author : Greenbone Networks GmbH
* URL             : https://github.com/greenbone/ospd-openvas
* License         : GPL-2+
  Programming Lang: Python3
  Description     : OSP server implementation to allow GVM to remotely control OpenVAS

This package contains an OSP server implementation to allow GVM to
remotely control OpenVAS.
It is a command line tool with parameters to start a daemon which keeps
waiting for instructions to update the feed of vulnerability tests and
to start a scan. The second part of the interface is the redis store
where the parameters about a scan task need to be placed and from where
the results can be retrieved, being the unique communication channel
between OSPD-OpenVAS and OpenVAS.

I plan to maintain this package within the pkg-security team with the
other openvas/ greenbone packages.
