⁠OpenVAS image for Docker

[](http://microbadger.com/images/mikesplain/openvas⁠ “Get your own image badge on microbadger.com”)

A Docker container for OpenVAS 8 on the Ubuntu 14.04 image. By default, the latest images includes the OpenVAS Base as well as the NVTs and Certs required to run OpenVAS.

Update Feb 22nd 2016: We now build using packages rather than compilition in container. If you experience any problems, please submit an issue!

⁠Requirements

Docker Ports available: 443, 9390, 9391

⁠Usage

Simply run:

docker run -d -p 443:443 -p 9390:9390 -p 9391:9391 --name openvas mikesplain/openvas

This will grab the container from the docker registry and start it up. Openvas startup can take some time (4-5 minutes while NVT's are scanned and databases rebuilt), so be patient. Once you see a gasd process in the top command below, the web ui is good to go. Goto https://<machinename>

Username: admin
Password: openvas

To check the status of the process, run:

docker top openvas

In the output, look for the process scanning cert data. It contains a percentage.

To run bash inside the container run:

docker exec -it openvas bash

⁠Config

By default GSAD will run on 443 with self signed certs. If you would like to run this on 80 without certs you can pass the following param and change the port in docker run from 443 to 80

docker run -d -p 80:80 -p 9390:9390 -p 9391:9391 -e HTTP_ONLY=true  --name openvas mikesplain/openvas
