I'm not sure what the real difference is between your script and what 
Tenable has already done with plugin #24236, sav_ver_check.nasl.  [Other 
than that you're trying to generate a report regardless of the version 
number.] Why don't you just use the existing plugin?

Actually no. You iterate over the versions listed in the array 
vulnerable_prod_ver_list and generate a report for each regardless of 
whether the installed version matches.
