For cve-search project, we download the latest definition of OVAL but we have to keep track of the release. Would it possible to provide a latest link? That would simplify the download and to ensure that we get the latest version.

Thank you for your work.

Hi Alexandre,

I’m not sure exactly what you need, but I do see you are a github and python user. Have you taken a look at the github OVAL repository and python tools that come with it: https://github.com/CISecurity/OVALRepo https://github.com/CISecurity/OVALRepo

You can clone the repo and then use the python scripts to search the contents, build packages, identify files that have been added/updated in a specific date range, etc. Is that what you need to do?

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Best, David Ries
