Report outdated / end-of-life Scan Engine / Environment (local)

[pleontios]

Hello everyone.

After my last update of KALI LINUX on my laptop, the scanning with OPENVAS (fully updated also) came up with the following scan result:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Report outdated / end-of-life Scan Engine / Environment (local)
Installed GVM Libraries (gvm-libs) version: 9.0.3
Latest available GVM Libraries (gvm-libs) version: 10.0.1

Solution type: VendorFix

Update to the latest available stable release for your scan environment. Please check the references for more information. If you're using packages provided by your Linux distribution please contact the maintainer of the used distribution / repository and request updated packages.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Of course the other scanning results were extremely poor -actually far less than the usual of the same IP.

Is it something I can do to fix this, or should I wait for a vendorfix?

Thank you in advance,
