Thanks for the tip. I didn't know the website.

According to my local web app (GSA):
OpenVAS SCAP Feed Version 201506240629
And the CVE is not present.

So, again I try to update:
/usr/local/sbin/openvas-scapdata-sync
/usr/local/sbin/openvas-nvt-sync
/usr/local/sbin/openvas-certdata-sync
/usr/local/sbin/openvasmd/openvasmd --rebuild
[restart]

And again same version (201506240629) and the CVE not appearing.

Then, as Timo suggested:
rm /usr/local/var/lib/openvas/scap-data/scap.db
/usr/local/sbin/openvas-scapdata-sync

Again same version (201506240629) but this time the CVE is there !! Bingo!

So, some questions arise:
- Any clue why this could happen?
- Any clue about how to detect there's a problem in the db (before
discovering you are missing a CVE)?
- It's a good policy to, once a month for example, delete scap.db and
resync?

Again, thank you
Best Regards
A.

 I agree with Jan here. The CVEs you listed should be in the feed already, so it \
looks like there is something wrong with your local SCAP database.<br> <br>
Assuming you are using SQLite as the database backend, you can try fixing this by \
deleting the scap.db file (found in &quot;$PREFIX/var/lib/openvas/scap-data/&quot;, \
with &quot;$PREFIX&quot; being the prefix of your OpenVAS installation) and running \
openvas-scapdata-sync again.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>According to my \
