CVE Reporting - No data available in table

Question

I setup CVE Reporting:

 VULN_CVESEARCH_ENABLE = on

 VULN_CVESEARCH_VERBOSE = on

 VULN_CVESEARCH_HOST = HTTP host serving CVE-Search on port 80

I ran the script on the OCS server to pull in initially by running:

 # cd /usr/share/ocsinventory-reports/ocsreports/crontab/ && php cron_cve.php

 CVE's Data processing ...

 0 CVE has been added to database

Did I miss a step? 

Answer 1

I tried again after a while and it just works but is extremely slow. Takes aprox. a week to sync the CVE-search results to OCS 2.7.

cron_cve.php looks at VULN_CVE_DELAY_TIME to limit the number of requests it does to the cve-search server. By default this is set to 10min which makes cron_cve.php go pathetically slow.
