Kali Vm Setup

Noisebridge infosec meetup 2017.08.31

Organizer: Kelly Albrink Topic: Kiopatrix 3 (kiopatrix 1.2)

VirtualBox

I installed vmware but I used VirtualBox because I am more familiar with it.

Network: `NatNetwork`

In virtualbox->preferences->network I added a new NatNetwork called PartyTime.

I attached both the attacker and kiopatrix1.2 virtual machines to the PartyTime network.

Both attacker and defender must be on the same VirtualBox NatNetwork. You can change this for machine in its settings->network.

Getting internet connectivity

After setting up the host-only network, the route might be messed up in the attacker machine. You have to fix your routing:

Run:
- dhclient eth0

Get ssh server up on attacker

So I can use my native terminal.

Attacker VM

The VM can be ssh'd into from the host. It's got a DHCP IP on 192.168.56.0/24.

Setting up the attacker vm for native terminal (no virtualbox window)

Install sshd and set it up.
Make sure root can login with a password
From host: ssh root@192.168.1.<D>
- you should just have to accept the host key and give the password: toor

I set up kali linux light .ova file as my attacker machine. It seems to work just like an ovm machine (you import it as an appliance in VirtualBox.

username: root
password: toor

Defender VM

I set up the Kiopatrix vmdk file as my defender by making a new vm and adding the VMDK as the attached drive. I specified ubuntu but it didn't seem to take that setting. I assume I could have set anything and it would just use the VMDK and do nothing. Weird.

Kiopatrix says: set up your /etc/hosts in your attacker VM:

<kiopatrix ip> kioptrix3.com
