How It Works

Update Mechanism

The script uses a subroutine that:

1. Downloads the latest version from GitHub
2. Overwrites the local file
3. Maintains silent operation with curl -s flag

Main Script

@echo off
setlocal

call :actualizar nmap_scan.bat
call :actualizar nessus_scan.bat
call :actualizar openvas_scan.bat
# ... (all scripts)

pause
EXIT /B 0

:actualizar
echo Actualizando %1...
"%~dp0curl.exe" -s -o %1 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm/master/%1
EXIT /B 0

Download Source

All scripts are downloaded from the official SVM GitHub repository:

https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm/master/

This ensures:

• Latest stable versions
• Verified and tested code
• Official distribution channel

Requirements

Dependencies

• curl.exe - Must be present in the same directory as update_all_scripts.bat
• Internet Connection - Required to access GitHub
• Write Permissions - Script directory must be writable

Network Requirements

• Outbound HTTPS access to GitHub
• No proxy configuration needed (uses system proxy if configured)
• Port 443 (HTTPS) must be accessible

Execution Details

Silent Mode

The script uses curl’s -s (silent) flag to suppress progress output:

"%~dp0curl.exe" -s -o %1 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/...

This provides:

• Clean console output
• Only shows “Actualizando [filename]…” messages
• No transfer statistics or progress bars

File Overwrite

The -o flag overwrites existing files without confirmation:

-o nmap_scan.bat

Important: This replaces local modifications. Always backup customized scripts before updating.

Update Frequency

Recommended Schedule

• Production Environments - Monthly updates
• Testing Environments - Weekly updates
• After Bug Reports - Immediate update when fixes are released
• Major Releases - Check changelog before updating

Version Tracking

The script does not track versions automatically. To verify updates:

# Check file modification dates
dir /T:W

Or use Git to track changes:

git diff nmap_scan.bat

Backup Before Update

Create backups of customized scripts:

# Create backup directory
mkdir backup_%DATE%

# Copy all .bat files
copy *.bat backup_%DATE%\

# Run update
update_all_scripts.bat

Custom Scripts Protection

If you have custom scripts in the same directory:

1. Use Different Names - Custom scripts won’t be overwritten
2. Separate Directory - Keep custom scripts elsewhere
3. Version Control - Use Git to track local changes

Selective Updates

To update specific scripts only, modify the update script:

@echo off
setlocal

REM Update only network scanning scripts
call :actualizar nmap_scan.bat
call :actualizar nmap_scan_remote.bat

REM Update only mobile scripts
call :actualizar apktool_decode_local.bat
call :actualizar mobsf.bat

pause
EXIT /B 0

:actualizar
echo Actualizando %1...
"%~dp0curl.exe" -s -o %1 https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm/master/%1
EXIT /B 0

Self-Update

The script updates itself:

call :actualizar update_all_scripts.bat

This ensures the update mechanism stays current with any new scripts added to the repository.

Verification

Verify Update Success

After running the update script:

# Check file timestamps
dir *.bat /O:D

# Recent files indicate successful update

Test Updated Scripts

Run a simple test after updating:

# Test a scanner script
nmap_scan.bat --help

# Test installation script
install_upgrade_tools_local.bat

Troubleshooting

curl.exe Not Found

Issue: The system cannot find curl.exe

Solution:

# Verify curl.exe exists in script directory
dir curl.exe

# Download curl for Windows if missing
# https://curl.se/windows/

Download Failures

Issue: Scripts fail to download

Solution:

# Test connectivity
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm/master/nmap_scan.bat

# Check proxy settings
echo %HTTP_PROXY%
echo %HTTPS_PROXY%

# Use verbose mode to debug
curl -v -o test.bat https://raw.githubusercontent.com/...

Permission Denied

Issue: Cannot overwrite files

Solution:

# Run as Administrator
Right-click update_all_scripts.bat → Run as administrator

# Or check file attributes
attrib *.bat

# Remove read-only if needed
attrib -r *.bat

Partial Updates

Issue: Some scripts update, others fail

Solution:

# Run update again (safe to run multiple times)
update_all_scripts.bat

# Check specific file manually
curl -o nmap_scan.bat https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm/master/nmap_scan.bat

Network Firewall/Proxy Issues

Issue: Corporate firewall blocks GitHub

Solution:

# Configure proxy in curl
set HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.company.com:8080
set HTTPS_PROXY=http://proxy.company.com:8080

# Or use proxy flag directly
curl -x http://proxy.company.com:8080 -o script.bat https://...

Manual Update Alternative

If automatic updates fail, manually download from GitHub:

1. Visit: https://github.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm
2. Navigate to desired script
3. Click "Raw" button
4. Save file to SVM directory

Change Log Checking

Before updating, check the repository for changes:

GitHub Repository: https://github.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm
Commits: https://github.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm/commits/master
Releases: https://github.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm/releases

Post-Update Tasks

After successful update:

1. Review Changes - Check GitHub commits for new features
2. Test Critical Scripts - Verify scanners still work
3. Update Documentation - Note any new parameters or requirements
4. Notify Team - Inform users of updates
5. Update Configuration - Adjust for any API changes

Rollback Procedure

If updates cause issues:

# Restore from backup
copy backup_%DATE%\*.bat .

# Or download specific version from GitHub
# https://raw.githubusercontent.com/simplevulnerabilitymanager/svm/<commit-hash>/script.bat

Update Script Output

Expected output during execution:

Actualizando nmap_scan.bat...
Actualizando nmap_scan_remote.bat...
Actualizando nessus_scan.bat...
Actualizando nessus_get_policies.bat...
Actualizando acunetix_scan.bat...
...
Actualizando update_all_scripts.bat...
Press any key to continue . . .

Integration with Scheduled Tasks

Automate updates with Windows Task Scheduler:

# Create scheduled task
schtasks /create /tn "SVM Update" /tr "C:\SVM\update_all_scripts.bat" /sc weekly /d SUN /st 02:00

# Or use Task Scheduler GUI for more options

Security Considerations

• Source Trust - Scripts download from official GitHub repository only
• HTTPS - All downloads use encrypted connections
• No Execution - Update script only downloads files, doesn’t execute them
• Verification - Review changes before using updated scripts in production

Related Scripts

• install_upgrade_tools_local.bat - Install/upgrade security tools locally
• install_upgrade_tools_remoto.bat - Install/upgrade tools on remote systems
• install_upgrade_tools_remoto.sh - Linux installation script

References

• SVM GitHub Repository
• curl Documentation

Notes

• The script always downloads the latest master branch version
• Updates are non-interactive and fully automated
• Script execution is safe to run multiple times
• No version checking - always downloads latest version
• Compatible with all Windows versions that support batch files
• Requires curl.exe for Windows (included with SVM distribution)
