Description

Hi,

https://vuls.io/ is an agentless linux vulnerability scanner.

It's exporting results to json file, so it should be easy to parse it.

Research direction
Start by examining existing scanner integrations in the VulnWhisperer codebase, such as those for Nessus or OpenVAS, to understand the required interface. The Vuls JSON output format should be parsed and mapped to VulnWhisperer's internal data model. Review the repository's documentation and any previous comments on this issue for additional context. No linked PRs or assignees exist, so the contributor can proceed with implementing the feature.
