This repo provides an easy way to deploy a clean pentesting environment with Kali linux using vagrant and virtualbox.

Getting started

To get started with pentest-env, clone this repository and run vagrant up inside the directory. This will download and run the Kali instance.

You can customize, add targets, create new targets etc.. inside pentest-env. Some examples are available in the examples/ directory, to use one simply set the PENTESTRC environment variable:

> PENTESTRC=examples/ctf.pentestrc vagrant status
Current machine states:

kali                      running (virtualbox)
metasploitable2           not created (virtualbox)
primer                    not created (virtualbox)

This environment represents multiple VMs. The VMs are all listed
above with their current state. For more information about a specific
VM, run `vagrant status NAME`.

About Security

verify checksums

It's recommended to check downloaded box files with provided checksums (SHA256): http://box.hackbbs.org/checksums.txt

sshd is running

Provided boxes run the sshd service. So if you plan to run the Kali linux with a Bridged interface, default setup can be dangerous!

• root password of kali is toor.
• SSH private key is not private! Anyone can use this key to connect to your instance.
• The Kali linux 1.0 box added a vagrant user with password tnargav and is in sudoers with no password required.
