# 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 hydra package on slackbuilds.org refers to version 9.4 and doesn't build anymore on Slackware64-current (as of today 17/03/2026), so I have reported here the build scripts with the updated source for version 9.6
