Our Next Generation Penetration Testing Platform
Wir
brummt immer noch und erholt sich von den Black Hat und DEF CON
Konferenzen, bei denen wir unsere neuen Kali Linux Dojo fertig
präsentiert, die eine Explosion war. Mit
der Hilfe von ein paar gute Leute, wurden die Dojo Zimmer eingerichtet
bereit für die Massen - wo viele ihre ganz eigene Kali 2.0 ISOs zum
ersten Mal erzeugt. Aber die Aufregung für uns nicht nur noch beenden. Mit dem Ende der Nachteile, befinden wir uns nun in der Mitte der
bedeutendste Veröffentlichung von Kali schmatzen seit 2013. Heute ist
der Tag, den Kali 2.0 offiziell freigegeben wird.Also, was ist neu in Kali 2.0? Es
gibt einen neuen 4.0-Kernel, jetzt auf Debian Jessie, verbesserte
Hardware und Wireless-Treiber Abdeckung, die Unterstützung für eine
Vielzahl von Desktop-Umgebungen (GNOME, KDE, Xfce, Kumpel, e17, lxde,
i3wm), aktualisiert Desktop-Umgebung und Werkzeuge - und die Liste geht weiter. Aber
diese Aufzählungspunkt Elemente sind im Wesentlichen eine Nebenwirkung
der realen Veränderungen, die sich in unserer Entwicklung Backend
genommen haben. Bereit für die eigentliche Nachricht zu hören? Atmen Sie tief ein, es ist eine lange Liste.Kali Linux ist nun ein Roll VerteilungEiner
der größten Bewegungen wir genommen haben Kali zu halten 2.0 up-to-date
in einer globalen, kontinuierliche Art und Weise wird die Umwandlung
Kali in einer Rollverteilung. Was
dies bedeutet, ist, dass wir unsere Pakete kontinuierlich aus Debian
Testing ziehen (nachdem sichergestellt, dass alle Pakete sind
installierbar) - im Wesentlichen die Kali-Core-System aufrüsten, während
es uns ermöglicht, um die neueren Debian-Pakete zu nehmen, wie sie
ausrollen. Dieser Schritt ist, wo unsere Wahl in Debian als Basissystem wirklich
zahlt sich aus - wir die Stabilität von Debian zu genießen bekommen,
während immer noch auf dem neuesten Stand zu bleiben.Kontinuierlich aktualisierte Tools, erweiterte WorkflowEine
weitere interessante Entwicklung in unserer Infrastruktur war die
Integration eines Upstream-Version Kontrollsystem, das uns warnt, wenn
neue Upstream-Versionen von Werkzeugen gelöst werden (in der Regel über
git Tagging). Dieses
Skript läuft täglich auf einer Auswahlliste gemeinsamer Instrumente und
uns, wenn ein neues Werkzeug erfordert die Aktualisierung informiert
hält. Mit diesem neuen System erfolgt ist, wird Kern-Tool-Updates häufiger passieren. Mit
der Einführung dieses neuen Monitoring-System, werden wir langsam
beginnen, die "Tool-Upgrades" Option in unserem Bug-Tracker Phasing-out.
New Flavours of Kali Linux 2.0
Through our Live Build process, Kali 2.0 now natively supports KDE, GNOME3, Xfce, MATE, e17, lxde and i3wm. We’ve moved on to GNOME 3 in this release, marking the end of a long abstinence period. We’ve finally embraced GNOME 3 and with a few custom changes, it’s grown to be our favourite desktop environment. We’ve added custom support for multi-level menus, true terminal transparency, as well as a handful of useful gnome shell extensions. This however has come at a price – the minimum RAM requirements for a full GNOME 3 session has increased to 768 MB. This is a non-issue on modern hardware but can be detrimental on lower-end machines. For this reason, we have also released an official, minimal Kali 2.0 ISO. This “light” flavour of Kali includes a handful of useful tools together with the lightweight Xfce desktop environment – a perfect solution for resource-constrained computers.
Kali Linux 2.0 ARM Images & NetHunter 2.0
The whole ARM image section has been updated across the board with Kali 2.0 – including Raspberry Pi, Chromebooks, Odroids… The whole lot! In the process, we’ve added some new images – such as the latestChromebook Flip – the little beauty here on the right. Go ahead, click on the image, take a closer look. Another helpful change we’ve implemented in our ARM images is including kernel sources, for easier compilation of new drivers.
We haven’t forgotten about NetHunter, our favourite mobile penetration testing platform – which also got an update and now includes Kali 2.0. With this, we’ve released a whole barrage of new NetHunter images for Nexus 5, 6, 7, 9, and 10. The OnePlus One NetHunter image has also been updated to Kali 2.0 and now has a much awaited image for CM12 as well – check the Offensive Security NetHunter page for more information.
Updated VMware and VirtualBox Images
Offensive Security, the information security training and penetration testing company behind Kali Linux, has put up new VMware and VirtualBox Kali 2.0 images for those who want to try Kali in a virtual environment. These include 32 and 64 bit flavours of the GNOME 3 full Kali environment.
If you want to build your own virtual environment, you can consult our documentation site on how to install the various virtual guest tools for a smoother experience.
TL;DR. Where’s My Kali 2.0 Download?
The tl;dr of this release is best explained by comparison: If Kali 1.0 was focused on building a solid infrastructurethen Kali 2.0 is focused on overhauling the user experience and maintaining updated packages and tool repositories. Along with the arrival of 2.0 comes a whole lot of interesting updates… You can head down to our Kali Linux 2.0 Download page to get the goodness for yourself.
Still TL; Still DR. How Do I Upgrade to Kali 2.0?
Yes, you can upgrade Kali 1.x to Kali 2.0! To do this, you will need to edit your source.list entries, and run a dist-upgrade as shown below. If you have been using incorrect or extraneous Kali repositories or otherwise manually installed or overwritten Kali packages outside of apt, your upgrade to Kali 2.0 may fail. This includes scripts like lazykali.sh, PTF, manual git clones in incorrect directories, etc. – All of these will clobber existing files on the filesystem and result in a failed upgrade. If this is the case for you, you’re better off reinstalling your OS from scratch.
Otherwise, feel free to:
Metasploit Community / Pro no longer ships in Kali
At the request of Rapid7, we have removed the Metasploit Community / Pro package from Kali Linux and now host the open-source metasploit-framework package only. For all of you who require Community or Pro, you will now need to download it from Rapid7 and then register and submit your personal details in order to get a license. In addition, the Rapid7 team no longer maintains the Metasploit package in Kali, which has brought with it some substantial changes – we’ve moved to a “native” setup, where rather than bundling all the required software needed to run Metasploit in one big package, we use native dependencies within Kali to support the metasploit-frameworkpackage. This results in a faster, smoother work experience and easier integration with Metasploit dependencies. For more information about this, check out our Metasploit Framework in Kali documentation page.
Starting up Metasploit Framework in Kali Linux 2.0
Due to the above-mentioned changes in the metasploit-framework package, there are some minor changes in how Metasploit is started in Kali – specifically, there is no longer a metasploit service. This is how you start up the Metasploit Framework with database support in Kali Linux 2.0:
- Start the Postgresql Database
/etc/init.d/postgresql start# Initialize the Metasploit Framework Database
msfdb init# Run msfconsole
msfconsole
Your Kali 2.0 FU Just Got an Upgrade
Kali Linux 2.0 is a serious step forward for us, as we continuously improve the distribution. We hope you enjoy the new look, features, tools, and workflow. As usual, you are invited to join our community via forums, bug tracker, Twitter, Facebook, and of course, IRC. Lastly, if you haven’t seen our Kali 2.0 Teaser video, here it is!
