Open Source VMware Software

This is Metasploitable2 (Linux) Metasploitable is an intentionally vulnerable Linux virtual machine. This VM can be used to conduct security training, test security tools, and practice common penetration testing techniques. The default login and password is msfadmin:msfadmin. Never expose this VM to an untrusted network (use NAT or Host-only mode if you have any questions what that means). To contact the developers, please send email to msfdev@metasploit.com

bWAPP, or a buggy web application, is a free and open source deliberately insecure web application. bWAPP helps security enthusiasts, developers and students to discover and to prevent web vulnerabilities. bWAPP prepares one to conduct successful penetration testing and ethical hacking projects. What makes bWAPP so unique? Well, it has over 100 web bugs! It covers all major known web vulnerabilities, including all risks from the OWASP Top 10 project. The focus is not just on one specific issue... bWAPP is covering a wide range of vulnerabilities! bWAPP is a PHP application that uses a MySQL database. It can be hosted on Linux/Windows with Apache/IIS and MySQL. It is supported on WAMP or XAMPP. Another possibility is to download bee-box, a custom VM pre-installed with bWAPP. This project is part of the ITSEC GAMES project. You can find more about the ITSEC GAMES and bWAPP projects on our blog. For security-testing and educational purposes only! Cheers Malik Mesellem

VPLE (Linux) Vulnerable Pentesting Lab Environment VPLE is an Intentionally Vulnerable Linux Virtual Machine. This VM can be used to conduct security training, test security tools, and practice common penetration testing Labs. In VPLE bunch of labs are Available. NOTE:- "Only run in VMWare Pls Don’t run in VirtualBox" Will also run on the ProxMox server to understand how to do it pls refer to the doc in the zip named "Cybersecurity Lab Deployment on Proxmox" The default login and password is administrator: password. List Of All Labs in one VM:- 1. Web-DVWA 2. Mutillidae 3. Webgoat 4. Bwapp 5. Juice-shop 6. Security-ninjas 7. WordPress We are adding more labs in few days

The ODS3 Virtual Machine Challenge are downloadable images that can be run as VMWare or VirtualBox instances. The Idea behind the challenge is to test and exercise web application penetration testing in a controlled environment. These images are great for cyber security students, penetration testers and hobbyist. Care should be taken if installed on an Internet access host as the application are purposely vulnerable to attack and exploitation.

Similar to the de-ice pentest CDs and pWnOS, Holynix is an Linux vmware image that was deliberately built to have security holes for the purposes of penetration testing. Visit http://pynstrom.com/forum/ for help setting up or completing the challenge.

DefTack (Defend / atTack) is a software package written in C# for ASP.net which extends VMware ESX Server by providing a environment to quickly build and run multiple virtual isolated computing environments, suitable for security and penetration testing.
