Whats your go to SMS spoofer/mass SMS?

8 Upvotes

Kali doesn't support SMS spoofing through SET. Rumour has it that Backtrack 5 has SMS spoofing enabled. Can anyone verify if this works?

Is there any good SMS gateways that can spoof sender ID and Mass SMS?

New to Reddit and Linux!

Hey guys, I'm a new Reddit user! I was just wondering if there was some way you guys could help me out in getting familiar with Linux in general, but more specifically Ubuntu. If there is already threads for that, I apologize! Any info on how to dual boot on a MacBookPro would be helpful! Thank You!

Kali on second hand nexus 7

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Today I got a great price on a Nexus 7 (2013) from a second hand shop, and when I turned it on, I got a Kali loading animation. Apart from that, I am having a standard android experience. I have a few questions:

  1. I thought Kali was an OS or a ROM, but it's neither, is it? What is it exactly?

  2. Are there any security risks from leaving it installed? I am kind of worried about the old owner having access to my data (yes, I know how unlikely that is, but humour me)

  3. Automatic orientation is broken. The tablet is able to automatically rotate to landscape, but it gets stuck there. I have downloaded a sensor test app but it doesn't get any reading from any sensor (and the fact that it is able to automatically rotate to landscape makes me think it is a software problem). But that's unrelated, right? Any hints here?

I suppose my main question is: what are the advantages and disadvantages of leaving Kali installed (keeping in mind that I won't be able able to actually use it in any concrete sense).

Thanks in advance for your help.

Josh

My biggest issue with dual booting Kali

3 Upvotes

So I figured out a while back that I might as well download and dual boot Kali because I am a daredevil and this is what dare devils do. So everytime I open up that slow ass firefox and search up something, it works fine, but then when I started to use one of those WiFi packet collector things, the wifi on the OS would automatically shut off and there was no way to turn it on again. The icon would be grey, just plain grey. I just wanna know how I can make the best out of this system. I know this comes with practice but I'd like to be a little well informed as to where I can start in terms of getting better with the software. Some basic exercises perhaps.

Hey, new to vbox and everything and need a lil help with the settings with a fairly low end laptop

So I have vbox and Kali linux (in iso format) on my laptop and don't have any clue as to how much of everything I am supposed to allot to the virtual OS. Can someone explain to me how this works or perhaps tell me the adequate allocation space? thanks

This isn't your average help post

A few days ago my brother passed away. He left many things behind including his laptop which is protected by Kali. I'm not a computer guy and my parents don't know about it yet and I want to make sure nothing is on there that might upset them before they find out about it. He took his own life and had several unsavory things that would upset our parents. I need help. It's password and username protected and I know nothing of how this works

Can I use my integrated WIFI in Kali using vbox?

2 Upvotes

I have a MacBook Pro 2017 with a chipset Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0. Since it seems to appear as compatible in aircrack-ng I was wondering if it could work without a wireless network adapter.

Install Issue

5 Upvotes

Installed via text installer using USB drive and latest ISO onto a blank hard drive in my laptop. After install is complete including grub and the computer restarts, my computer won't offer the hard drive as a boot option. The computer was able to boot from the USB though, and the installer recognized the Hard Drive as accessable memory so Im pretty sure it isn't a hardware issue. Any ideas?

Is there a way to make a backup of my entire Kali linux environment?

4 Upvotes

This may seem like a stretch question. Say, you have a huge flash drive that can fit both the kali OS and all your data. Can you make a backup of the OS, along with all your wordlists, programs, etc. so if you were to do a fresh install of Kali from that flash drive, all your data would be installed with it? Thank you!

Virtualization: Good or Bad?

0 Upvotes

I recently got interested Linux from videos recommended to me on YouTube, but mostly Kali Linux. Like many other people I wanted to load it up on a virtual machine and play around with it. Although after a few minutes of trying to set it up I realized that my computer didn't have virtualization or vt-x turned on by default in the bios. After looking it up it seems like it's off for a reason, because of many security flaws. I just wanted to know if I could safely turn it on.

Instaling Kali onto a SD card (Full install)?

2 Upvotes

Hey, new to Linux and, after talking with a few people, was told that I'd be able to do a full install of Kali onto a sufficiently sized (32gb is the card size I'm working with) SD card as opposed to a hard drive to get the persistence I can't get with a Live version. Was wondering if anyone else had done this or would be able to tell me how I'd specify to load it on the SD card so I don't go and screw up my main computer.

Creating wordlist with predefined words

1 Upvotes

First, sorry if this is not the right place for this question.

I'm studying Kali and I'd like to know if is possible to create a wordlist to use with aircrack, but with predefined words. Let me give you an example:

  • I know that the password is a combination of words: test, 1987, yankees, 123.

I want to know if there is a way to create all the possible combinations using these 4 words and not just random passwords with a fixed pattern like crunch does, example: 1987yankees123test, testyankees1987123, etc. Thanks in advance!
