Hello Community,
just played around with the API to find the best solution for me.
I was wondering that calling /cvrf/all shows a lot more advisories than /oval/all.
Downloading /cvrf/all is 790KB size and /oval/all only 40KB when using XML.
Am i doing something wrong or shows CVRF more products, where is the difference ?
regards,
Kai Lohse

Hi Kai,
Please check this openVuln API /advisories/<oval|cvrf>/all/ does not return all results

Hi Andrei,
yes, thanks, just found it too, should have searched before posting.
So i will download both CVRF and OVAL to get the most amount of Information, my tool doesn't care ;-)
Is there also a difference when choosing JSON or XML or it is just a different Format ?
regards,

I'm not sure about XML/JSON but as for CVRF/OVAL, you may need to download both and combine the results, i.e. CVRF and OVAL lists may not overlap, so it's safer to combine them.
