fast scan

fast scan mode scans with no root-privilege, no deps on scan target server. fast For details about fast scan mode, see below. You need to execute vuls configtest to check the configuration of the target server before scanning. For details about fast scan mode, see below.

fast scan with internet access

  • config.toml
[servers]

[servers.localhost]
host         = "192.168.100.111" # or "127.0.0.1"
port         = "22"
scanMode     = ["fast"]

fast scan without internet access

  • config.toml
[servers]

[servers.localhost]
host         = "192.168.100.111" # or "127.0.0.1"
port         = "22"
scanMode     = ["fast", "offline"]

fast-root scan

fast-root scan mode scans with root-privilege. You need to execute vuls configtest to check the configuration of the target server before scanning. For details about fast-root scan mode, see below.

fast-root scan with internet access

  • config.toml
[servers]

[servers.localhost]
host         = "192.168.100.111" # or "127.0.0.1"
port         = "22"
scanMode     = ["fast-root"]

fast-root scan without internet access

  • config.toml
[servers]

[servers.localhost]
host         = "192.168.100.111" # or "127.0.0.1"
port         = "22"
scanMode     = ["fast-root", "offline"]

deep scan

  • same as fast-root scan mode for now.

-ssh-native-insecure option

removed in https://github.com/future-architect/vuls/issues/1181

Example: Scan all servers defined in config file

$ vuls scan

With this sample command, it will ..

Example: Scan specific servers

$ vuls scan server1 server2

With this sample command, it will ..

  • Scan only 2 servers (server1, server2)

Example: Scan via shell instead of SSH

Vuls scans localhost instead of SSH if the host address is localhost or 127.0.0.1 and the port is local in config. For more details, see Architecture section

  • config.toml

    [servers]

[servers.localhost]
host         = "localhost" # or "127.0.0.1"
port         = "local"

Example: Scan Running containers (Docker/LXD/LXC)

It is common that keep containers running without SSHd daemon. see Docker Blog:Why you don't need to run SSHd in your Docker containers

Docker

Vuls scans running Docker containers via docker exec instead of SSH. For more details, see Architecture section

If you don’t want to use root, create a Unix group called docker and add users to it For details, see docker manual

To scan all of the running containers

"${running}" needs to be set in the containers item.

[servers]

[servers.172-31-4-82]
host         = "172.31.4.82"
user        = "ec2-user"
keyPath     = "/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa"
containerType = "docker"
containersIncluded = ["${running}"]

To scan specific running containers

The container ID or container name needs to be set in the container item.
In the following example, only container_name_a and 4aa37a8b63b9 will be scanned.
Be sure to check these containers are running state before scanning.
If specified containers are not running, Vuls gives up scanning with the printing error message.

[servers]

[servers.172-31-4-82]
host         = "172.31.4.82"
user        = "ec2-user"
keyPath     = "/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa"
containerType = "docker"
containersIncluded = ["container_name_a", "4aa37a8b63b9"]

To scan except specific running containers

[servers]

[servers.172-31-4-82]
host         = "172.31.4.82"
user        = "ec2-user"
keyPath     = "/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa"
containerType = "docker"
containersIncluded = ["${running}"]
containersExcluded = ["container_name_a", "4aa37a8b63b9"]

To scan containers only (Docker Host will not be scanned)

 [servers.localhost]
host = "localhost"
port = "local"
user = "vuls"
scanMode = ["fast-root"]
containersIncluded = ["${running}"]
containersOnly= true

LXD

Vuls scans lxd via lxc exec instead of SSH.

[servers]

[servers.172-31-4-82]
host         = "172.31.4.82"
user        = "ec2-user"
keyPath     = "/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa"
containertype = "lxd"
containersIncluded = ["${running}"]
containersExcluded = ["container_name_a", "4aa37a8b63b9"]

LXC

Vuls scans lxc via lxc-attach instead of SSH.

[servers]

[servers.172-31-4-82]
host         = "172.31.4.82"
user        = "ec2-user"
keyPath     = "/home/username/.ssh/id_rsa"
containertype = "lxc"
containersIncluded = ["${running}"]
containersExcluded = ["container_name_a", "4aa37a8b63b9"]

LXC required root privilege.

Example of /etc/sudoers on target servers

vuls ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:SETENV: /usr/bin/lxc-attach -n *, /usr/bin/lxc-ls *

Example: scan WordPress (core, plugin, theme)

For Details, see usage-scan-wordpress

Example: scan a lockfile of libraries

For Details, see Scan vulnerabilities of non-OS packages

Example: scan Port by External Port Scanner(nmap)

Example: scan Windows
