Hi,

I'm curious as to how the threat level is assigned in OpenVAS-6.

For example, in a scan report I find an entry for "Compaq WBEM Server 
Detection" (OID 1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.10746) which has a CVSS of 0.0 yet it 
is 
reported as a Medium threat. In the NVT source the risk factor is None. Is 
this classification change intentional or is it a software bug ? And how is 
the threat level in the report related to the risk factor in the NVT - are 
they just different names for the same concept ?

Another example is the "FTP Server type and version" NVT (OID 
1.3.6.1.4.1.25623.1.0.10092) - it is classified in a report as a Low threat 
with CVSS of 
1.9 - what is the basis for such a classification and CVSS assignment for a 
(pure) product detection NVT (ie. no specific vulnerability is reported for 
the detected product) ? 

Best regards,

Karol
