Gettting warning message on Parrot os 4.11

[weu07]

Started using Parrot OS 4.11 and when running lynis audit system I am getting the following warning message;

Unknown OS found in /etc/os-release - Please create issue on GitHub project page: https://github.com/CISOfy/lynis

Can Parrot OS be added to the checks of operating systems?

It works on my machine.

@weu07 what version are you using?

@weu07 I had the same issue in Parrot 4.11:

  Exception found!

  Function/test:  [OS Detection]
  Message:        Unknown OS found in /etc/os-release - Please create issue on GitHub project page: https://github.com/CISOfy/lynis

As mentioned above, the problem seems to be in the version that is offered by the OS vendor repos, which is outdated as shown below:

#lynis update info

 == Lynis ==

  Version            : 3.0.2
  Status             : Outdated
  Installed version  : 302
  Latest version     : 306

Upgrading to latest version solves the problem.
