Any tool would need access to a data source to make a comparison. If there's no chance for that, then you're talking about a completely manual effort. However, if you can get the most recent version of the suse-sam and suse-sam-data RPMs installed on this system, then you could use that to do a lot of the grunt work. Having said that, if there's no access to an update repository, then you're pretty much 100% certain that system is not up to date. An explanation of why there's no way to access a repository, might be helpful.
