Kali Linux 1.1.0 is released, use Kernel 3.18, New Tools and Updates

Kali Linux 1.1.0 is released, New Kernel, New Tools and Updates

Kali Linux is an open source operating system designed from the ground up as a drop-in replacement for the well known BackTrack penetration testing Linux distribution. It includes more than 300 penetration testing tools, it's FHS compliant, supports a wide range of wireless devices, comes with a custom kernel patched for injection, supports multiple languages and it is completely customizable.

For more information on the major Kali Linux Changes in the upcoming version 1.1.0 please consult this page.

As mentioned, the operating system includes over 300 penetration testing utilities, among which we can mention Aircrack-ng, Hydra, Nmap, Wireshark, Metasplot framework, Maltego, Owasp-Zap, SQLMap, John, Burpsuite, Johnny, Pyrit, SIPcrack, PWdump, Rainbowcrack, Maskgen, Hexinject, SSLSniff, and Dsniff.

The distribution is available for download as standard and minimal ISO images, designed to support the 64-bit, 32-bit and ARMEL architectures, as well as custom VMware and ARM images that support the Raspberry Pi, BeagleBone Black, HP Chromebook, Samsung Chromebook, Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1, Cubieboard 2, CuBox, EfikaMX, Odroid U2, Odroid XU, Utilite Pro and SS808 devices.

After almost two years of public development (and another year behind the scenes), we are proud to announce our first point release of Kali Linux – version 1.1.0. This release brings with it a mix of unprecedented hardware support as well as rock solid stability. For us, this is a real milestone as this release epitomizes the benefits of our move from BackTrack to Kali Linux over two years ago. As we look at a now mature Kali, we see a versatile, flexible Linux distribution, rich with useful security and penetration testing related features, running on all sorts of weird and wonderful ARM hardware. But enough talk, here are the goods:

• The new release runs a 3.18 kernel, patched for wireless injection attacks.
• Our ISO build systems are now running off live-build 4.x.
• Improved wireless driver support, due to both kernel and firmware upgrades.
• NVIDIA Optimus hardware support.
• Updated virtualbox-tool, openvm-tools and vmware-tools packages and instructions.
• A whole bunch of fixes and updates from our bug-tracker changelog.
• And most importantly, we changed grub screens and wallpapers!

You can download the new version from our Kali Linux Download page, where you’ll also find mini-installer ISOS for both 32 and 64 bit CPU architectures. You can expect updated VMWare and multiple ARM image releases to be posted in the Offensive Security custom Kali Linux image download page in the next few days. As usual, if you’ve already got Kali Linux installed and running, there’s no need to re-download the image as you can simply update your existing operating system using simple apt commands:

apt-get update
apt-get dist-upgrade

Wifislax 4.10 is out, Linux distribution for Penetration Wi-Fi hardware

A Slackware-based Linux distribution that provides support for several Wi-Fi hardware

Wifislax is an open source Linux operating system based and inspired by the Slackware Linux distribution. It’s main goal is to support the latest Wi-Fi technologies. The system provides out-of-the-box support for a wide range of wireless and wired network cards. In addition, it contains a large number of security and forensics tools, which transforms it into a pentesting (penetration testing) distro.

Wifislax 4.10 changelog :

• Much of the development has been dedicated to creating scripts "updaters / installers", with which anyone can update parts of the system, including the kernel, or install software that will be interesting for various types, "libraries" "office" "pentest "" audit "" multimedia "... there is a little bit of everything.

Distributed as a dual-arch Live CD

It is distributed as a single Live CD ISO image that can run on both 64-bit and 32-bit CPUs. It integrates various unofficial network drivers, directly into the Linux kernel provided by the Slackware project.

Boot options

The boot menu is quite different from the ones used in other Linux distributions. For example, it includes two entries for running the live environment with a normal or PAE kernel (useful if you have more than 4GB of RAM), a hardware detection tool, a memory testing tool, and support for qwerty keyboards.

When pressing on one of the two kernel options for running the live environment, users will be presented with many other options, including Wifislax with KDE (persistent or not), Wifislax with Xfce (persistent or not), text mode, copy to RAM, safe graphics mode, and ACPI Off.

Uses the KDE Plasma desktop environment

Booting into the KDE environment, with persistent mode enabled to save your session, seams to be the best choice for the new Wifislax user. It provides a familiar user interface, with popular open source applications, such as the Mozilla Firefox web browser, ISO Master, XMMS audio player, and SMPlayer video player.

Since the system carries scripts to install / upgrade almost everything, put only the fatter modules or that do not have an install script.

I will not elaborate much, category, name and download.
