This script demonstrates how to connect to the QualysGuard API and how to extract vulnerability data from the scan report XML document.
It returns a list of vulnerabilities, the IP address(es) affected, their severity, and a short description of each.
The scan report XML document, which contains the vulnerability data for a particular scan, is obtained by executing a scan when the script runs or by retrieving a previously saved scan report.
Note: This script takes a username and password as the first two command line arguments.
Perl versions 5.6.0 and greater are supported.
This script relies on several freely available modules from CPAN. You will need to have the following installed:
- Bundle::LWP — Basic WWW library
- Net::SSL — SSL support
- Requires OpenSSL
- XML::Twig — Handy XML manipulation
- Requires James Clark's expat and XML::Expat
