Background "What is Armitage?""Armitage exists to help security professionals better understand the hacking process and appreciate what's possible with the powerful Metasploit framework. Security professionals who understand hacking will make better decisions to protect you and your information." I copy that paragraph from Fast and Easy Hacking FAQ, but in a simple way to explain what is Armitage, in my opinion it's tools that make you learning about Netowork Security, Metasploit, and NMap more easier because this tools make all of that tools(Metasploit, NMap) in visual way not a command line. Just a few click and you will know the flow of an attack happen in the network. FYI : Read here for latest Backtrack 5 Armitage tutorial.

Step By Step :If you still unfamiliar with Backtrack, you can read my previous post about 5 useful things in Backtrack Linux. 1. I assume you have already installing Armitage by using database to the latest version. v4L@bt:~# /pentest/exploits/framework3/msfupdate

apt-get install armitage . The next step is

update your metasploit to the latest version by using msfupdate command. This is needed to update our exploit

buy me a cup of tea

2. The next step is enabling RPC Daemon for metasploit, in this case we will use SSL to interact with metasploit. v4L@bt:~# /pentest/exploits/framework3/msfrpcd -f -U msf -P test -t Basic

7. The next step we need to add host(s). We also can use NMap to scan whole network or specific IP Address. In this case I will use "Quick Scan(OS Detect)" using NMap to find alive hosts in my network.

My network address is 192.168.1.0/24 class C.

Follow this blog

You need to wait until the tasks completed. Usually it depends on scanning type, if you use intense scan will take more time than quick scan. Below is the picture when it finish doing the task.

If the tools found alive hosts it will be shown like the picture below(also the OS).

8. From the previous image it shows that we need to find some attacks available for the listed hosts.

You can use automated attack finder from armitage who will find the most suitable attacks for the hosts listed. you can choose both "by Port" or "by Vulnerability". If attack analysis has finished the application will inform you like the picture below.

9. In this example I will try the MS08_067 vulnerability in Windows.

The next step is the same when you use metasploit framework. If you confused in this steps, you can use automated exploitation (leave all the options default), then click LAUNCH and wait .

10. If the targeted hosts is vulnerable with the attack, the color will be changed into red, that's mean that we can breach into the computer.

The next step is right click the hosts and as you can see on the above picture, I choose the command shell to interact with the victim. I think you should know what happen next when I click that option.PWNED. I hope this tutorial is useful for you, especially for you who want to tests your personal network from security

CB Says:I follow these instructions and when I connect waiting for the Armitage window, nothing happens except a box that says "java.io.IOException: authication error" January 4th, 2011 a progress bar moves across the screen, then the box disappears. Armitage never opens.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

v4L Says:#CB there's 2 possibility about this error : 1. have you start your MySQL service? /etc/init.d/mysql start 2. what version is your backtrack?if your BT box under 4r2, then you should use postgreSQL, if your BT box is == 4r2 then you use MySQL

CB Says:I have BT4 running on Sun Virtual Box.

January 4th, 2011

I got another java exception error when I tried postgresql."method.db.status missing or wrong number of parameters." ./postgresql-8.3 start ./armitage.sh Then I connected selecting Postgresql instead of mySql and got the error above when pushing connect.

v4L Says:#CB I still didnt know about your backtrack version. In my tutorial Im use backtrack January 4th, 2011 4R2, but if you use another version that perhaps use postgreSQL, you can refer to this tutorial http://www.kalenarndt.com/security/backtrack-4-r1-db_autopwnwith-postgres-sql/ how to configure backtrack 4R1 in postgreSQL. Hope it helps

CB Says:Sorry I am kind of a newbie. appreciate the help though.

I have BT4.0. I used apt-get update and apt-get dist-upgrade to try and get to January 4th, 2011 version r2, I get low disk space errors after this is done and it errors out. I have 100GB allocated for my Virtual Box, so I think it may be because I am not running a persistent version.any help is greatly appreciated as I am trying to just get up

Matthias Buchner Says:I posted a video tutorial for Armitage on my blog here: http://codebazaar.blogspot.com/2011/06/introduction-to-metasploit-andJuly 2nd, 2011 armitage.html

I am running it on Windows 7 and hacking Metasploitable and a Linux Mint box. Enjoy:D

v4L Says:#Matthias Buchner Nice tutorial mate July 2nd, 2011

Tosin Says:Great Tutorial. It worked exactly as prescribed for BT 4R2. However, I was unable to perform the same action in BT5. Using Mysql: it says invalid driver specified then unable to connect to database. Before all these, mysql was running and the MSFRPCD was running too. I also noticed a port number added to the DB Host (127.0.0.1:7175). The result was d same both when removed and when added. Thanks for a great work!

showed services and Hosts. Attack and Meterpreter are not shown at all. Why?

Tosin Says:Matthias, your video promises to be a great lesson tutorial. Only that you chose to leave July 22nd, 2011 out the audio in the most important places. You expect viewers to just follow ur mouse movementswell, it was visible but not comprehensible. Thanks for the effort, anyway.

v4L Says:#Tosin youve already resolve your first question isnt it? July 24th, 2011 when you right clicked and it didnt show up attack and meterpreter, maybe it was not vulnerable or victim already patch or put firewall on their machine, maybe you can update your armitage database first to find up the new vulnerability.

v4L Says:#Tosin Btw if you want to give a try exploiting using Armitage, try download July 28th, 2011 Metasploitable Virtual Machine http://blog.metasploit.com/2010/05/introducing-metasploitable.html
