In this tutorial, we will show you how to install Warpgate on Kali Linux, which is a tool for scanning web applications for vulnerabilities, built with Ruby on Rails.
Before installing Warpgate, please ensure that you have met the following requirements:
First, you need to clone the Warpgate repository from Github, using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/warp-tech/warpgate.git
Next, we need to install the dependencies required by Warpgate. We will use Bundler to install the dependencies, which is a package manager for Ruby.
Run the following command to install Bundler:
gem install bundler
After that, navigate to the Warpgate directory and run the following command to install the required dependencies:
bundle install
Now, we need to configure the database settings for Warpgate. Open the config/database.yml
file using your favorite text editor and update the following fields:
default: &default
adapter: postgresql
encoding: utf8
pool: <%= ENV.fetch("RAILS_MAX_THREADS") { 5 } %>
host: localhost
username: YOUR_POSTGRES_USERNAME
password: YOUR_POSTGRES_PASSWORD
database: warpgate_development
Replace YOUR_POSTGRES_USERNAME
and YOUR_POSTGRES_PASSWORD
with your PostgreSQL database username and password.
We need to create the Warpgate database and run the database migrations. Run the following commands to set up the database:
rake db:create
rake db:migrate
Warpgate can be started by running the following command:
rails server
The server will be accessible at http://localhost:3000
.
You can test if Warpgate is working by navigating to http://localhost:3000
in your web browser. If everything is working correctly, you should see the Warpgate web interface.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed Warpgate on Kali Linux Latest.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
