Re: [Openvas-discuss] OpenVAS NVT Feed Issues

[Antu Sanadi]

Hi,


Looks like your "openvasmd --rebuild" getting failed. Please run,

openvasmd --rebuild --progress  and check the result. Also run ,

sqlite3 /usr/local/var/lib/openvas/mgr/tasks.db "select count(*) from 
nvts;" and let me know the result.


Thanks,
Antu Sanadi

Hello,

I keep receiving an error where the setup log indicates that I have an 
NVT feed with not enough samples in it, so the setup is not complete.  
I have run the certificate checks, the openvasmd --rebuild command, 
and I have used the openvas-nvt-sync command successfully, but none of 
these fix the issue.  My database seems out of date (4/11/7017) by 
about two weeks, but the NVT sync feed says that all is accounted for 
and that the sync is up to date.  The setup  check script has been 
helpful, but now I'm stuck and I'm not sure how to get the NVT feed to 
register.  I also tried downloading the latest NVT compilation from 
the link on the openvas.org/openvas-nvt-feed web page, but no luck.

there is no strict rule about update cycle of the community feed.
This week we took care to make an extra update because of the
Juniper backdoor problem for example.

In other words: better not schedule your sync routine to just wednesdays. Then
you might miss some urgent updates for up to 6 days.

Thanks, that gives me a clear picture and confirms what I have been able 
to investigate over time.

My intention was to clarify how the OpenVAS Feed Update is working, since 
daily updates have been mentioned for it.

Well, that is true.

You need to think nvt feed this way. NVT developer (like me) generates 
plugin and uploads it to svn version control. Then greenbone qa tests all 
new plugins and usually in wednesday official release is generated by 
greenbone and released to openvas feed.

If you want faster updates, you should pay for greenbone feed.

I have been running "openvas-nvt-sync" on a daily basis, until I 
recognized that updates are provided once a week on wednesday morning. I 
have to state there have been additional updates in exception when a 
critical vulnerability has been identified. I can recall that happening 
once which was as far as I remember related to Heartbleed, but I may be 
wrong on that.

well, it depends how openvas-feeed is updated and how many times per week
you run openvas-nvt-sync.

Commercial feed is updated more often.. of course you can also update feed
from svn, but it's now signed with gpg.

Re: [Openvas-discuss] openvas-nvt-feed

[Michael Wiegand]

Hello,

The tarball was not updated with the most recent feed updates, I have
done so now.

Keep in mind that the tarball is intended to speed up the initial
synchronization with the feed and should normally only be used to
populate an empty NVT collection.

For subsequent updates the rsync feed is recommended.

Regards,


Michael

I am running OpenVAS 8, installed from source. I was expecting to use the 
OpenVAS NVT feed, but do not get updates more frequently than once a week 
as described.

"plugin_feed_info.inc" shows:

# This file was autogenerated by update_plugin_info.sh
PLUGIN_SET = "201511250911";
PLUGIN_FEED = "OpenVAS NVT Feed";
FEED_VENDOR = "The OpenVAS Project";
FEED_HOME = "http://www.openvas.org/openvas-nvt-feed.html;;

Any configuration change I would need to apply?

"plugin_feed_info.inc" shows PLUGIN_SET = "201511250911"; even though I 
did run "openvas-nvt-sync" today.

"openvas-nvt-sync --feedversion" shows the same: 201511250911

The tar.bz2 is used when "openvas-net-sync --wget" is executed only.

Re: [Openvas-discuss] openvas-nvt-feed

[Lukas Grunwald]

Hi Christopher,

That is only the case with the Greenbone Security Feed, the OpenVAS feed 
is community maintained, so expect delays depending on the voluntary 
time donated by the community.

Hi All,

During the past couple of weeks I noticed that the last update on the 
nvt-feed (http://www.openvas.org/openvas-nvt-feed.html) was done on 
the 20-10-2015.


Can anyone explain why this has not been updated recently please? I am 
a little bit confused since this should be updated daily.


Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,

Christopher Cutajar

Well, at least openvas-feed (openvas-nvt-sync) feed was updated on
25-11-2015.

Maybe web page is not updated automagically?

[Chris]

I'm suggesting to have a look at:

http://plugins.openvas.org/

where you can see the current status of the OpenVAS feed.

At least it looks a bit strange. Not sure what the authors intention is.

However, there exists another way to let OpenVAS Manager do a rebuild:
Sending a HUP singal to the main openvasmd process. The feed update scripts
do so for example.

Hi all,

I was checking to see if OpenVAS had a FREAK test yet and I see
that it does (http://plugins.openvas.org/nasl.php?oid=805142).
When I check my NVT feed I see that the plugin has been
downloaded and apparently has been loaded enough that it is in
the cache:

[root@scanner 2015]# locate freak_attack
/var/cache/openvas/2015/gb_openssl_export_rsa_freak_attack.nasl.nvti

However if in GSAD I go to SecInfo Management  NVTs and search
for FREAK, this plugin does not show in the list.

How do I troubleshoot why this plugin isn't loading? I have done
a manual nvt-sync, as well as restarted all of the processes.

Thanks!
