Metasploit is an open-source penetration testing framework used to find and exploit vulnerabilities in computer systems, networks, and applications. It allows security professionals to simulate real-world attacks and test the security posture of their organization.
Metasploit provides a set of tools, modules, and exploits that can be used to automate the process of scanning, testing, and exploiting vulnerabilities in a target system. It also provides a graphical user interface (GUI) and a command-line interface (CLI) to interact with the framework.
1. Open a terminal window on Ubuntu
2. Install the necessary dependencies by running the following command:
sudo apt-get install build-essential zlib1g zlib1g-dev libxml2 libxml2-dev libxslt-dev locate libreadline6-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev git-core autoconf curl postgresql postgresql-contrib libpq-dev libapr1 libaprutil1 libsvn1 libpcap-dev
3. Download the Metasploit framework from the official website using git:
git clone https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework.git
4. Change into the Metasploit directory:
cd metasploit-framework
5. Run the following command to install Metasploit:
sudo bash -c 'for MSF in $(ls msf*); do ln -s /usr/local/src/metasploit-framework/$MSF /usr/local/bin/$MSF;done'
6. Update the Metasploit database:
sudo service postgresql start
sudo msfdb init
7. Verify that Metasploit is installed correctly by running the following command:
msfconsole
This will launch the Metasploit console, where you can start using the framework to test the security of your systems.
Note: The installation process may vary depending on your Ubuntu version and system configuration. Please refer to the official Metasploit documentation for detailed instructions.
