Tune up your Kali Linux!

Ok, I know nowadays people are begin to switch from Backtrack to Kali Linux, here I just wanna share a new tricks before you start using it. After that, you might wanna run an update and upgrade.

Let's start with open up a new Terminal, go to "/etc/apt/sources.list" you can use any text editor you like gedit, nano, vi or vim. I'm using nano my personal favorite. 

Edit the source.list file before running update and upgrade
Here are the list of that you need to add to :

deb http://http.kali.org/ /kali main contrib non-free
deb http://http.kali.org/ /wheezy main contrib non-free
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-dev main contrib non-free
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali-dev main/debian-installer
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali-dev main contrib non-free
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali main contrib non-free
deb http://http.kali.org/kali kali main/debian-installer
deb-src http://http.kali.org/kali kali main contrib non-free
deb http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free
deb-src http://security.kali.org/kali-security kali/updates main contrib non-free
deb http://repo.kali.org/kali kali-bleeding-edge main

After you had done insert all those, save and quit. And now, you can run update and upgrade to your Kali Linux.

Then start launching msfconsole and see how the different!

Metasploit before update and upgrade
Metasploit after update and upgrade
It might take times to complete the update and upgrade but it's depends on your internet connection speed. This took me for 1 hour 45 minute (roughly) to complete the downloading and installing the updates to be completed. 

That's all for now! May the source be with you!

iOS - Convert .app to .ipa

While doing a iOS Security Testing, I wondered how do we convert .app into .ipa. So basically here are the structure of .ipa files. 1. First, SSH in your iPhone (Jailbroken). 2. Download the .app folder via scp  3. Copy the .app folder into a folder called Payload. 4. Compress it with .zip extension using any compression software. 5. Change the extension from file.zip to file.ipa. That’s it. Now you can use these .ipa files to install the app into your iPhone.

SQLiiiii

This is an re-post from an old archive ... From MySQL documentation : "The SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE 'file_name' form of SELECT writes the selected rows to a file. The file is created on the server host, so you must have the FILE privilege to use this syntax. file_name cannot be an existing file, which among other things prevents files such as /etc/passwd and database tables from being destroyed. As of MySQL 5.0.19, the character_set_filesystem system variable controls the interpretation of the filename." The INTO OUTFILE operator can be used during sql injection exploiting to write php shell on remote host. Unfortunately (fortunately?) this is only possible in some (very) race conditions : mysql user must have the FILE privilege; the operator requires a "quoted" file pathname, so the web application should not escape/filter them; httpd and mysql should be installed on the same machine, or (if you can) the file will be written on the dbms machi...
