SilverStrike is a security scanner tool that can be used to detect vulnerabilities in web applications. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing SilverStrike on FreeBSD Latest.
Before installing SilverStrike, you need to ensure that the following prerequisites are met:
Before installing SilverStrike, we need to update the package repository to ensure that we have the latest packages available. To do this, simply run the following command in your terminal:
pkg update
To install SilverStrike, we need to first install its dependencies. To install the dependencies, run the following command:
pkg install git zlib sqlite3 p5-Digest-SHA1 p5-Crypt-Simple
Next, we need to clone the SilverStrike repository. To do this, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/silvershack/silverstrike.git
Once the repository is cloned, navigate to the silverstrike directory and run the following command:
perl install.pl
This will install SilverStrike on your system.
After installing SilverStrike, we need to configure it before we can start using it. To do this, navigate to the /usr/local/www/silverstrike directory and edit the configuration file using your preferred text editor:
nano config.inc.sample
In the configuration file, you can set the database name, database username, and database password. You can also set the maximum number of concurrent scans and the timeout for each scan.
Save the changes and rename the configuration file to config.inc.php:
mv config.inc.sample config.inc.php
To start SilverStrike, navigate to the /usr/local/www/silverstrike directory and run the following command:
perl server.pl
SilverStrike will now start running and you can access it by opening your web browser and navigating to http://localhost:8080/.
