Description

Vulnwhisperer should support Netsparker web scanner reports. This should be relatively straightforward in terms of interfacing with the API. Normalising and aligning with other vulnerability scanner results will, as always, be more involved, hopefully aligning to a "vulnerability standard".

The API is beautifully documented here - https://www.netsparkercloud.com/docs/index#/ Should only require two endpoints

Research direction
Examine existing scanner integrations in the VulnWhisperer codebase, particularly how they handle API authentication and data normalization for vulnerability reports. Implement the two Netsparker API endpoints: Scans ListByState to get scans and Scans Report to fetch details. Map the Netsparker report fields to VulnWhisperer's internal vulnerability standard. The issue is open but stale, so confirm with maintainers if this is still desired and if there are any updated API endpoints.
