[Feature request]: allow Greenbone to connect to a secured MQTT server

Inside /etc/openvas/openvas.conf we can see MQTT URI mqtt_server_uri = localhost:1883 and if we try to change it after securing MQTT server via username and password to mqtt_server_uri = USER:PASS@localhost:1883 or any other alternative which is accepted via MQTT it will not work, I have took a quick look at the source code and it seems to have the original URL is hardcoded, would it be possible to have MQTT server URI dynamic?URI

Hey @aabuhasna

Thanks for the feature request. We will look into how much effort it would be as the change would also be needed in notus-scanner and ospd-openvas.

In the long run we also plan to remove MQTT completely to simplify our architecture. We currently have no concrete timeline for that though. So I am not sure if we will develop the request.

Alternatively you can also develop support yourself and make PRs in the relevant repos, we are happy to review them in a fast manner. Just assign yourself to the issue if you would like to do that.
