by ADMIN 54 views

Introduction

As a valued member of the Zabbix community, we appreciate your feedback and contributions to the project. Recently, you reported that the HTML table with the class webinars-table no longer exists on the Security Advisories page. This article aims to provide an update on the current situation and potential solutions for scraping the CVE table.

Background

The Zabbix Security Advisories page is a crucial resource for users to stay informed about potential security vulnerabilities in the Zabbix platform. The page provides a list of CVEs (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) that have been identified and addressed in Zabbix releases. The table with the class webinars-table was previously used to display this information.

Current Situation

Unfortunately, the HTML table with the class webinars-table has been removed from the Security Advisories page. This change has caused issues for users who rely on scraping the table to extract CVE information. We understand the importance of this data and are committed to finding a solution.

Potential Solutions

There are several potential solutions to this issue:

  • API Access: Zabbix provides a REST API that allows users to access and retrieve data from the platform. We can explore using the API to retrieve CVE information and update the scraping script accordingly.
  • New Table Class: We can investigate whether a new table class has been introduced on the Security Advisories page. If so, we can update the scraping script to target the new table class.
  • Manual Data Extraction: As a temporary solution, users can manually extract CVE information from the Security Advisories page. This may involve using web scraping techniques or manually copying and pasting data into a spreadsheet.

Conclusion

We appreciate your feedback and are committed to finding a solution to this issue. We will continue to monitor the Security Advisories page and update the scraping script as necessary. In the meantime, users can explore the potential solutions outlined above to continue accessing CVE information.

Future Development

We are constantly working to improve the Zabbix platform and provide better tools and resources for users. We will take this opportunity to review and update our web scraping documentation to ensure that users have the most up-to-date information on accessing and extracting data from the platform.

Community Involvement

We value the contributions of the Zabbix community and encourage users to share their experiences and suggestions for improving the platform. If you have any ideas or feedback on how to address this issue, please don't hesitate to reach out.
