PatchMon is a self-hostable, AGPL-licensed Linux patch management and server monitoring platform with a lightweight outbound-only agent and a single Go binary server with an embedded React UI. It provides fleet-wide package inventory, pending update tracking, patch scheduling and approvals, CVE scanning, and OpenSCAP/CIS compliance reporting across Linux, FreeBSD, and Windows hosts.
Use cases
- manage linux updates across a fleet without ssh scripts
- track pending apt and dnf updates from a central dashboard
- scan servers for cves and security updates
- run openscap and cis compliance scans on hosts
- schedule and approve patch deployments on debian and rhel servers
- monitor docker containers and package drift on ubuntu servers
- auto-enroll proxmox lxc containers for patch monitoring
When to choose
- you manage many Linux (or mixed Linux/FreeBSD/Windows) servers and need one pane of glass for patching
- you want outbound-only agents with no inbound firewall or SSH exposure
- you need self-hosted patch management with CVE scanning and compliance reporting
- you want patch approval workflows, audit trails, and scheduled reports for auditors
When to avoid
- you only manage a handful of machines where a simple cron + unattended-upgrades setup suffices
- you need full configuration management or orchestration rather than patching (use Ansible/Salt)
- you require non-AGPL licensing for internal distribution
- you need deep Windows Update or macOS patching as a primary workflow
