Hello,

In our recent OpenVAS scan, our host has HTTP service running so the
scanning software tests a lot of URLs. However, in the target host access
log, we saw tons of OPTIONS requests being issued by scanning software.
Per some research, OPTIONS is a type of HTTP request that is pre-flight in
Cross-origin resource. The normal GET request would return a document with
bunch of objects, like json, images, etc. Can I limit OpenVAS not issuing
OPTIONS requests?
Thank you,
