I've just installed OpenVAS … however when I checked on Feed Status, I found that OpenVAS CERT Feed is too old as shown in the screenshot below.
Too old (14 days) – Please check the automatic synchronization of your system
The solution suggested was to check automatic synchronization in the system. Unfortunately I was not sure how to do that.
I've searched around but couldn't find similar problem. So I guess posting the question here might be helpful.
OpenVAS CERT Feed Status: Please check the automatic synchronization of your system

To get updated content from the feeds you need to run the following scripts (in this order) on a daily base via e.g. cron:
greenbone-nvt-sync
greenbone-scapdata-sync
greenbone-certdata-sync
If there is any issue during the sync the scripts should give you additional info.
