An unofficial script to install GVM alias OpenVAS on debian (10) and ubuntu (20.04).
This script installs GVM, alias OpenVAS. It is not made for docker, but VMs and bare metal deployments. It does not configure any of the components, nor the system to be secure or production ready. Most Linux distributions come with thier own GVM packages, which might be more stable and elegant to deploy. This script is for all, who want their GVM to be installed from git.
Set the following environment variables as for your need.
GVM_INSTALL_PREFIX
: Path to the gvm user directory. (default = /var/opt/gvm)GVM_VERSION
: GVM version to install. (one of [stable,oldstable,main]; default = stable)GVM_ADMIN_PWD
: Initial admin password. (default = admin)
$ ./install.sh
- base installation of one of
- debian 10
- ubuntu 20.04
- internet access
- shell (SSH) on the target system
- sudo installed
- user with sudo permissions
- at least 16GB disk storage
- at least 4GB of memory
- at least 2 CPU cores / vCPUs
I have made this script based on a blog post from sadsloth (link) - big thanks -, as well as the installation guidelines found in the various repositories from greenbone.
