* Metasploit Framework Linux Installer *
|
||
|
|
****************************************
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The Metasploit installer for Linux provides a self-contained execution
|
||
|
|
environment for the Metasploit Framework. This includes the Ruby interpreter,
|
||
|
|
the RubyGems package, SQLite3, and Subversion. The package also includes
|
||
|
|
binary copies of the libraries needed to support these tools.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The installer is built using binaries from Ubuntu 6.06 Server. This old
|
||
|
|
version is necessary for the compiled tools to be compatible with older versions
|
||
|
|
of the GLIBC library.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The following applications/libraries are built from source:
|
||
|
|
- Ruby 1.9.1
|
||
|
|
- RubyGems
|
||
|
|
- SQLite3-Ruby
|
||
|
|
- Subversion
|
||
|
|
- Lorcon2
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The following libraries are taken from Ubuntu:
|
||
|
|
- libssl.so.0.9.8
|
||
|
|
- libutil-2.3.6.so
|
||
|
|
- libcrypto.so.0.9.8
|
||
|
|
- libncursesw.so.5.5
|
||
|
|
- libsqlite3.so.0.8.6
|
||
|
|
- libncurses.so.5.5
|
||
|
|
- libz.so.1.2.3
|
||
|
|
- libaprutil-1.so.0.3.9
|
||
|
|
- libserf-0.so.0.0.0
|
||
|
|
- libapr-1.so.0.3.8
|
||
|
|
- libdb-4.3.so
|
||
|
|
- libpcap.so.0.9.4
|
||
|
|
- libexpat.so.1.0.0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
While the source code for each of these applications and libraries are easily
|
||
|
|
available from the upstream repository, we will make them available directly
|
||
|
|
from the Metasploit server on demand.
|
||
|
|
|

|
The installer itself is created with makeself
