Here you can download the mentioned files using various methods.

We have listed the original source, from the author's page. However, after time these links 'break', for example: either the files are moved, they have reached their maximum bandwidth limit, or, their hosting/domain has expired.

For these reasons, we have been in touch with each author asking for permission to mirror the files. If the author has agreed, we have created mirrors. These are untouched copies of the listed files. (You can check for yourself via the MD5 & SHA1 checksums which are individually displayed on their entry page. See how here).

We also offer the download via BitTorrent. We prefer that people use BitTorrent, however, we do understand that it is not as straight forward as clicking on a direct link.

To make sure everyone using VulnHub has the best experience possible using the site, we have had to .
This is because the average file size is currently about 700mb, which causes our bandwidth to be high (couple of terabytes each month!). As this is a privately funded project, we believe we have chosen the best hosting provider for the limited budget.

If would you like to be able to download a mass, and at quicker speed, please use torrents as these will be seeded 24/7. For a guide on how to setup and use torrents, see here.


If you're the owner of a listed file or believe that we are unlawfully distributing files without permission, please get in touch here.

To make sure that the files haven't been altered in any manner, you can check the checksum of the file.
This makes sure that the you have acquired the same file which was transferred to you, without being modified/changed/damaged.

Some authors publish the checksums in the README files, on their homepages or sometimes inside compressed archive (if it has been compressed).
VulnHub also lists the MD5 & SHA1 checksums for every file which it offers to download, allowing you to check. You can find all the checksums here, otherwise, they will be individually displayed on their entry page. To check the checksum, you can do it here.

You can find out how to check the file's checksum here.

This covers information regarding the virtual machine itself, such as the format of the virtual machine and the operating system*.


* This is a 'little' hint. Useful to help you get started and it shouldn't give anything away that you quickly could find out for yourself.

This contains information related to the networking state of the machine*.

When starting out to attack the machine, the user might help by making sure the machine is up & running correctly as some machines are easier to discover on the network than others.
