connection error

[trip-nine]

I am getting a connection error when trying to scan a few test IPs.. it scans 1 correctly, then runs into errors on the final 2.. will the report not print into .tex unless all IPs are on??

Hey @trip-nine,
Flan just went through a big refactor so I think this might be fixed. The issue you're posting seems to be that there was some error getting the description of a cve when generating the report. The whole process crashes since there was no error handling when getting the description. The refactor has this error checking so please try again.
