you are referring to the "NVD Vulnerability Severity Ratings" I guess.
These are the new default for upcoming OpenVAS-7.
In OpenVAS-7 it is also possible to switch to "OpenVAS Classic" which
is the current default in OpenVAS-6. Unfortunately it is not easily possible
to change the severity classes in OpenVAS-6.

Regarding PCIDSS: Wasn't 4.3 the magic limit?
