OpenVAS, a part of the Greenbone Vulnerability Management (GVM) suite, is a widely-used open-source tool that provides comprehensive vulnerability scanning capabilities.

If Docker and Docker-Compose are not yet installed on your system, follow these steps to set them up:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Install Dependencies :<\/strong> Make sure you have curl, ca-certificates, and gnupg installed. You can do this by running the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo apt-get install curl ca-certificates gnupg<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-1-set-up-docker-s-apt-repository\"><strong>Step 1: Set Up Docker&#8217;s APT Repository<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>First, we will add Docker\u2019s official GPG key and repository to your system. This ensures that you can install Docker from trusted sources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Add Docker&#8217;s GPG Key<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo apt-get update\nsudo apt-get install ca-certificates curl\nsudo install -m 0755 -d \/etc\/apt\/keyrings\nsudo curl -fsSL https:\/\/download.docker.com\/linux\/ubuntu\/gpg -o \/etc\/apt\/keyrings\/docker.asc\nsudo chmod a+r \/etc\/apt\/keyrings\/docker.asc<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Add Docker\u2019s Official Repository<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>echo \"deb &#91;arch=$(dpkg --print-architecture) signed-by=\/etc\/apt\/keyrings\/docker.asc] https:\/\/download.docker.com\/linux\/ubuntu $(. \/etc\/os-release &amp;&amp; echo \"$VERSION_CODENAME\") stable\" | sudo tee \/etc\/apt\/sources.list.d\/docker.list &gt; \/dev\/null\n\nsudo apt-get update<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-2-install-docker-and-dependencies\"><strong>Step 2: Install Docker and Dependencies<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve added Docker\u2019s official repository, you can install Docker and related dependencies using command.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo apt-get install gnupg docker-ce docker-ce-cli containerd.io docker-buildx-plugin docker-compose-plugin<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-3-verify-the-docker-installation\"><strong>Step 3: Verify the Docker Installation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To ensure that Docker is installed correctly, run the hello-world container to check if everything is working:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo docker run hello-world<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>This command should display a message confirming that Docker is working properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-4-manage-docker-as-a-non-root-user\"><strong>Step 4: Manage Docker as a Non-Root User<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To avoid running Docker commands with sudo, add your user to the Docker group:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>sudo groupadd docker\nsudo usermod -aG docker $USER\nnewgrp docker<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, you can verify Docker functionality without using sudo:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>docker run hello-world<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-5-download-the-greenbone-community-edition-docker-compose-file\"><strong>Step 5: Download the Greenbone Community Edition Docker Compose File<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you can start <a href=\"https:\/\/www.openvas.org\/\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-secondary-color\">OpenVAS<\/mark><\/a>, we need to download the necessary Docker Compose file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Create a destination directory<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>export DOWNLOAD_DIR=$HOME\/greenbone-community-container &amp;&amp; mkdir -p $DOWNLOAD_DIR<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Download the Docker Compose file<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>cd $DOWNLOAD_DIR &amp;&amp; curl -f -L https:\/\/greenbone.github.io\/docs\/latest\/_static\/docker-compose-22.4.yml -o docker-compose.yml<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-6-modify-the-docker-compose-file-for-remote-access\"><strong>Step 6: Modify the Docker Compose File for Remote Access<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>By default, the Greenbone Security Assistant (GSA) web interface listens only on the local machine. To allow remote access, you need to modify the Docker Compose file.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Locate the<strong> <\/strong><strong>gsa<\/strong><strong> section<\/strong> in the <strong>docker-compose.yml<\/strong> file:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>gsa:\n  image: greenbone\/gsa:stable\n  restart: on-failure\n  ports:\n    - 127.0.0.1:9392:80    # Before\n  volumes:\n    - gvmd_socket_vol:\/run\/gvmd\n  depends_on:\n    - gvmd<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>Modify the <strong>ports<\/strong> section to allow external access:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>gsa:\n  image: greenbone\/gsa:stable\n  restart: on-failure\n  ports:\n    - 9392:80     # After\n  volumes:\n    - gvmd_socket_vol:\/run\/gvmd\n  depends_on:\n    - gvmd<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>This configuration change allows GSA to be accessed from any device on the network, not just localhost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-7-start-the-greenbone-community-edition-container\"><strong>Step 7: Start the Greenbone Community Edition Container<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that the configuration is ready, you can start the Greenbone Community Edition container with the following command:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<pre class=\"wp-block-code\"><code>docker compose -f $DOWNLOAD_DIR\/docker-compose.yml -p greenbone-community-edition up -d<\/code><\/pre>\n\n\n\n<p>This command will start OpenVAS in the background.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-step-8-accessing-openvas\"><strong>Step 8: Accessing OpenVAS<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the container is up and running, you can access the Greenbone Security Assistant (GSA) web interface by navigating to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>http:\/\/server_ipaddress:9392<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-default-login-credentials\"><strong>Default Login Credentials<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Username<\/strong>: admin<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Password<\/strong>: admin<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once logged in, you\u2019ll be able to start using OpenVAS to scan for vulnerabilities in your environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading has-small-font-size\" id=\"h-conclusion\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Successfully installed OpenVAS (GVM) using Docker containers on Ubuntu 24.04.
