Kali Nethunter

From the creators of Kali Linux comes Kali Nethunter!

Kali NetHunter is a free & open-source Mobile Penetration Testing Platform for Android devices, based on Kali Linux.

Kali Nethunter can be installed in two different ways:

• NetHunter Rootless

• NetHunter Lite

• NetHunter

Kali Nethunter has many versions available, unofficially. This can be done with Nethunter-in-Termux, Kali Load, Kali Termux, etc.

There are a lot of different repositories and tutorials available.

Termux

A different way to install rootless kali is to use Termux - a terminal emulator for Android that allows for running a Linux environment on an android device. In addition, various Linux software can be installed through the application's package manager. Termux installs a minimal base system automatically, and additional packages are available using a package manager. (Wikipedia)

The Termux application is no longer available on the Play Store, but it is available in F-Droid. Simply go to the website and download the latest version or download F-Droid for having support and new updates installed automatically.

Once the application is installed, there are a series of packages that should be installed as follows.

#!/bin/sh

# chmod +x to run
# In all prompts, yes

echo "Updating necessary packages..."
pkg update -y
pkg upgrade -y

echo "Allowing storage access"
termux-setup-storage

echo "Installing necessary packages..."
pkg install python -y
pkg install python2 -y
pkg install php -y
pkg install nano -y
pkg install figlet -y
pkg install curl -y
pkg install ruby -y
pkg install wget -y
pkg install git -y
pkg up -y

Kali Nethunter

Here comes Kali!

Now, as mentioned before, Kali NetHunter can be installed in different ways, officially and unofficially.

NetHunter Rootless Edition

Kali NetHunter can be installed on any unrooted Android device without voiding the warranty.

1. Install the Nethunter-Store app from [here.](https://store.nethunter.com)

2. From the store, install Termux, NetHunter-KeX client, and Hacker's keyboard.

3. In Termux, do:

termux-setup-storage

# Install wget
pkg install wget

# Retrieve the script from the Offensive Security server
wget -O install-nethunter-termux https://offs.ec/2MceZWr

# Give execution permission
chmod +x install-nethunter-termux

# Run the installation script
./install-nethunter-termux

NetHunter Rootless is now installed!

For the first use, there are a series of commands that can be typed into the CLI, e.g., nethunter for the normal Kali NetHunter start, nethunter -r for starting Kali NetHunter as root.

Check more ways to start the Kali NetHunter command line interface in the documentation page.

Note: For any issue look through teh Kali NetHunter Rootless documentation here.

Nethunter In Termux

One of the ways to install NetHunter is to download it from one of the many repositories available online. This one is developed by Hax4us and is shown as the one to download by many sources.

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/Hax4us/Nethunter-In-Termux

# Enter the local repository 
cd NetHunter-In-Termux

# Give execution permission
chmod +x kalinethunter

# Run the installation script
./kalinethunter

NetHunter is now installed, but only as a CLI within Termux.

To start Kali NetHunter, open the Termux application and run startkali on the CLI.

Note: Some applications will not work completely as they should.

Termux Kali

Another option to install Kali NetHunter is to use the Termux Kali repository by techpanther22. This one is quite similar from the previous, NetHunter In Termux, but while NetHunter In Termux downloads the tar file from the official web server, Termux Kali downloads an already uploaded image from EXALAB 's resources repository.

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/techpanther22/Termux-Kali

# Enter the local repository 
cd Termux-Kali

# Give execution permission
chmod +x installkali.sh

# Run the installation script
./installkali.sh

For the first tile use.

cd ..
./start-kali.sh

To start Kali Linux, open the Termux application and run ./start-kali.sh.

More Tools

There are a lot of tools available in different repositories to play with - Tool-X, T-Bomb, Vaim SMS Bomb, MNS Tools, etc.

Tool-X

Tool-X is a Kali Linux hacking tools installer for Termux and linux system. Tool-X was developed for Termux and other android terminals. Using Tool-X, you can install almost 370+ hacking tools in Termux (android) and other Linux based distributions. Now Tool-X is available for Ubuntu, Debian etc (Github).

Tool-X is relatively easy to install once certain steps have been done during the installation of Termux.

git clone https://github.com/jackind424/Tool-X.git
cd Tool-X
chmod +x install.aex
./install.aex

Tool-X will now be installed. Once the setup is complete, run it with Tool-X or toolx from anywhere in the terminal.
