How to use Kali Linux on Android devices
Now that you have Kali Linux installed on your Android device, you can start using all of the amazing security tools that it has to offer. In this section, we will show you how to use some of the most popular Kali Linux tools. How to use NMAP
Nmap is a network exploration and security auditing tool. It can be used to scan for vulnerable open ports on systems. To use NMAP on your Android device, simply open the terminal and type in the following command: nmap 10.0.0.1
This will scan the IP address 10.0.0.1 for any open ports. How to use Metasploit
Metasploit is a powerful exploitation framework that can be used to exploit vulnerabilities on systems. To use Metasploit on your Android device, you first need to start the Meterpreter server by typing in the following command: msfconsole
Once the server is started, you can then use the run command to start an exploit. For example, to start the exploit for the vulnerability CVE-2015-7547, you would type in the following command: run exploit/multi/browser/chrome_sandbox_escape
You can then use the show targets command to see a list of all the available targets for the exploit. To select a target, you can use the set target command. For example, to set the target to Windows 7, you would type in the following command: set target 1
Once the target is set, you can then use the run command to start the exploit.
