KALI LINUX COMMANDS

Kali Linux is a Debian-derived Linux distribution designed for digital forensics and penetration testing. It is maintained and funded by Offensive Security Ltd.

Kali Linux is preinstalled with over 600 penetration-testing programs, including nmap (a port scanner), Wireshark (a packet analyzer), John the Ripper (a password cracker), Aircrack-ng (a software suite for penetration-testing wireless LANs), Burp suite and OWASP ZAP (both web application security scanners). Kali Linux can run natively when installed on a computer’s hard disk, can be booted from a live CD or live USB, or it can run within a virtual machine. It is a supported platform of the Metasploit Project’s Metasploit Framework, a tool for developing and executing security exploits.

Amap

The first next-generation scanning tool for pentesters. It attempts to identify applications even if they are running on a different port than normal.
It also identifies non-ascii based applications. This is achieved by sending trigger packets, and looking up the responses in a list of response strings.

root@kali:~# amap -bqv 192.168.1.15 80
Using trigger file /etc/amap/appdefs.trig … loaded 30 triggers

Maltego

Maltego is a unique platform developed to deliver a clear threat picture to the environment that an organization owns and operates. Maltego’s unique advantage is to demonstrate the complexity and severity of single points of failure as well as trust relationships that exist currently within the scope of your infrastructure.

root@kali:~# cat /opt/Teeth/README.txt
NB NB: This runs on Kali Linux
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
#Make directory /opt/Teeth/
#Copy tgz to /opt/Teeth/
#Untar

Load the config file called /opt/Teeth/etc/Maltego_config.mtz file into Maltego.
This is painless:
1) Open Maltego Tungsten (or Radium)
2) Click top left globe/sphere (Application button)
3) Import -> Import configuration, choose /opt/Teeth/etc/Maltego_config.mtz

Notes
———
Config file is in /opt/Teeth/etc/TeethConfig.txt
Everything can be set in the config file.

Log file is /var/log/Teeth.log, tail -f it while you running transforms for
real time logs of what’s happening.

You can set DEBUG/INFO. DEBUG is useful for seeing progress – set in
/opt/Teeth/units/TeethLib.py line 26

Look in cache/ directory. Here you find caches of:
1) Nmap results
2) Mirrors
3) SQLMAP results

You need to remove cache files by hand if you no longer want them.
You can run housekeep/clear_cache.sh but it removes EVERYTHING.

The WP brute transform uses Metasploit.Start Metasploit server so:
msfconsole -r /opt/Teeth/static/Teeth-MSF.rc
It takes a while to start, so be patient.

In /housekeep is killswitch.sh – it’s the same as killall python.

Crackle

Crackle exploits a flaw in the BLE pairing process that allows an attacker to guess or very quickly brute force the TK (Temporary Key). With the TK and other data collected from the pairing process, the STK (Short Term Key) and later the LTK (Long Term Key) can be collected.

With the STK and LTK, all communications between the master and the slave can be decrypted.

root@kali:~# crackle -i ltk_exchange.pcap -o ltk-decrypted.pcap

!!!
TK found: 000000
ding ding ding, using a TK of 0! Just Cracks(tm)
!!!

Warning: packet is too short to be encrypted (1), skipping
LTK found: 7f62c053f104a5bbe68b1d896a2ed49c
Done, processed 712 total packets, decrypted 3
