Sl (hack) ware
a Slackware GNU/Linux Pentesting Suite
The aim of this project is to bring a curated collection of programs, tools, libraries and various utilities, ~~packaged~~ (some packages are way too big, sorry) and ready to be installed on Slackware.
Why Slackware
Because it's the best distro ever.
We have Kali and/or Parrot
Yes, but I prefer Slackware.

[!IMPORTANT]
The exploitdb package pulls also the binsploits which consists of 1.1Gb of exploits.
[!NOTE]
There's a metasploit package on slackbuilds.org but is an older version (last updated in 2022). I'll contact the mantainer and ask to transfer it to me and I'll update it.
The cadaver package is available on slackbuilds.org but it's for an older version. I've reported here the script and built the newest version. The slackbuild includes now a pull from the notroj/neon repository which is usually not allowed for SlackBuilds that are uploaded to slackbuilds.org
The Powershell package is available on slackbuilds.org without modifications necessary so I removed it.
