openvas-smb

This is the smb module for the Open Vulnerability Assessment System (OpenVAS). It includes libraries (openvas-wmiclient / openvas-wincmd) to interface with Microsoft Windows Systems through the Windows Management Instrumentation API and a winexe binary to execute processes remotely on that system.

For more information, please refer to the OpenVAS website available at http://www.openvas.org/.

Please see the file COPYING for the license information.

Please refer to the instructions provided in the file INSTALL if you want to install openvas-smb. If you are not familiar or comfortable with building from source code, we recommend that you use a install package or use a prepared virtual machine. Information regarding available binary packages and virtual machines is available from the download area of the OpenVAS website.

If you have any question or suggestions, please feel free to use the mailing list and the IRC chat to contact the OpenVAS developers.

Please use the OpenVAS bug tracker located at https://github.com/greenbone/openvas-smb/issues to report bugs.

History:

This module is derived from a package distributed by Zenoss, Inc., named wmi-1.3.14. The original location was: http://dev.zenoss.org/svn/trunk/inst/externallibs/wmi-1.3.14.tar.bz2

Since then, various special patches were applied for some needs of OpenVAS. Also, anything not needed for OpenVAS was removed.

The Zenoss package actually was a copy of a code base of the Samba project (https://www.samba.org/), forked based on the GPL v2 licensed status.
