Security Scanner

Thank you for your purchase!

Important

This addon only adds some files to your nodes. Because of that, these steps need to be done on your Wings server, not the panel.

Installation

Step 1: Create Directory & Upload Files

Create the SecurityScanner directory and upload the files:

sudo mkdir -p /opt/securityscanner

cd /opt/securityscanner

Upload all SecurityScanner files to /opt/securityscanner using SFTP or your preferred file transfer method.

Step 2: Install Dependencies

Install Node.js and project dependencies:

curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_22.x | sudo bash -

sudo apt install nodejs

cd /opt/securityscanner && npm install

Step 3: Configure

Edit config.yml with your Pterodactyl API keys and server paths:

nano /opt/securityscanner/config.yml

Important

You need an Application API key (starts with ptla_), not a Client API key. Set the correct Wings base path where your server files are stored (usually /var/lib/pterodactyl/volumes).

Configuration

Pterodactyl API Configuration

In your config.yml, configure:

pterodactyl:
  url: 'https://your-panel.com'
  apiKey: 'ptla_your_api_key_here'
  serverListEndpoint: '/api/application/servers'

Wings Server Paths

Set the correct paths for your Wings installation:

wings:
  basePath: '/var/lib/pterodactyl/volumes'
  serverPathPattern: '%s'
  scanMode: 'all'

Discord Notifications (Optional)

Enable Discord webhook notifications:

discord:
  enabled: true
  webhookUrl: 'https://discordapp.com/api/webhooks/YOUR_WEBHOOK_URL'
  severityThreshold: 'critical'

Step 4: Run the Service

Install PM2 and start the service:

sudo npm install -g pm2

cd /opt/securityscanner && sudo pm2 start index.js --name "securityscanner"

sudo pm2 startup && sudo pm2 save

Usage

Once running, Security Scanner will automatically:

• Scan all server files for malware and security threats
• Monitor for suspicious files and patterns
• Send notifications via Discord (if configured)
• Log all security events
