Hi Serkan,

I believe the latest version of the code for the OVAL definitions
generation is in the source code of the website, more specifically in this
directory:
https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/-/blob/master/english/security/oval/generate.py.
An older version was the Perl script I developed (at
https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/-/blob/master/english/security/parse-wml-oval.pl)
which is not functional anymore.

To generate the definitions, you need to have a copy of all the Debian
Security Advisories, which is available in the web source repository (at
https://salsa.debian.org/webmaster-team/webwml/-/tree/master/english/security
).

Hope the above helps.

Javier
