Export to Excel¶

By default (or when passing the --format xlsx parameter), the tool will export reports in Excel (xlsx) format.

This report contains a summary sheet, table of contents, and a sheet per vulnerability containing vulnerability details and a list of affected hosts.

Examples¶

Create Excel report from 1 OpenVAS XML report using default settings¶

openvasreporting -i openvasreport.xml

Create Excel report from multiple OpenVAS XML report using default settings¶

openvasreporting -i *.xml
# OR
openvasreporting -i openvasreport.xml -i openvasreport1.xml -i openvasreport2.xml [-i ...]

Create Excel report from 1 OpenVAS XML report, reporting only severity level high and up¶

openvasreporting.py -i openvasreport.xml -o openvas_report -f xlsx -l h

Result¶

The final report will look similar to this:

Vulnerability detail worksheets are sorted according to CVSS score and are colored according to the threat level.
