Hi Brennan,

We don't really publish a list like that, although we do provide many other
ways to search and subscribe to new Nessus plugin information.

Many Nessus checks audit for multiple CVE vulnerabilities.

There are many checks that don't have CVE entries in them though.

Why would this list be useful for you?
