WEAKERTH4N is one of the awesome pentesting distros I have ever tried. It’s still in its BETA release but the developer has done a good job for this project that some cool pentesting tools included in this distro. It is built from Debian Squeeze and uses Fluxbox as it Desktop environment. You can install this live pentesting distro using Custom Remastersys Installer. It has a lot of wireless tools unlike BackTrack 5.It has the old Android Hacking features.

These are the radios I have working and tested fully for WT3.6 (if your’s is not here you may need some extra configuration to get them injecting / installed. Most of them should work out of the box, no problem, even if not show in picture below, thanks to the great work my BETA testers did!:
How to’s New!

WT3.6 FAQ’s
What’s the login passwd for root?
- Same as always: weaknet This passwd is used for everything including services, so if you perform a hard disk installation, you may want to change them!
How do I get my BCM433224 Working with WT3.6
- This driver should be working out of the box, if you are still having issues (missing in
iwconfigcommand) try re-installing the firmware / modules by following this guide here.
Airmon-ng locks up when I use it!
- The Intel Centrino N series adapters have a problem with VAP’s and
iw. You can still use monitor mode and inject just fine, you simply have to use “iwconfig wlan0 mode monitor” beforehand. Check the video posted above!
How do I update Metasploit???
- Directly from the Desktop menu! Right click anywhere on the Desktop menu and navigate to Pentest->Exploiting->Metasploit Framework->Update Framework – and make sure you have an internet connection!
How do change the screen resolution?
- Follow this guide to changing your desktop resolution, if you are not using intel or NVIDIA graphics cards. You may need to install the specific driver for your machine!

when i try to install
WEAKERTHAN Linux 3.6 beta
Could be a disk issue. I would try installing it on a clean set of partitions, or maybe doing some simple research on the Debian User Forums, like this one: http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=49323 :)
Well worth the wait! Installed fine and all seems to work flawlessly, ath5k and AWUS036NH right out of the box. Excellent job trevelyn! Even got a kick out of the ThankYou menu entry!
Thank you soooo much!! :D
Running live as we speak. Thank you very much!
You’re welcome! If you are using it on a laptop, please test the volume control buttons for me!
:)
Volume control great on Thinkpad T42 and HP DV7. Will Scroogle, stunnel, unrar, xarchiever, make it to the final? This really is a awesome release. BT pales in your shadow.
Wow, your input is highly valued, and to see you say that is awesome. <3 Yes I will add those into the final release. Thank you JJumpz.
install problem in first 2 times but at end its done ,
nice and fast system (Android Hacking nice add),but i had problem with reboot,shutdown ….
so i did from terminal
Nice work
Hrrm, try running the application from the terminal and see what the output is. try “wtpower.pl” then click the buttons, it will tell you what went wrong in the terminal (2>/dev/stderr). It has worked okay on all the systems I have tested it on.
GRUB 2 does not seem to work with the old laptop I use a compaq nw 8000 I’ll try to see the links you give me.
Thank you for the time you spend we …
I installed the first
With the program I made three partitions gparted and formate
/dev/sda1/ext4…………64 gb
dev/sd2/extended……….1.57gb
/dev/sda5/swap………….1.57 gb

For my work 100% the installer.

What I’m trying to fix is not updating SET framework and also fast-track.
But the problem there is that Douglas does so, it is very difficult
to change because you do not have all the root privilege.
.
Uhh, you should be UID0 (root) all the time in WT3.6 The root passwd is “weaknet” if you are using another username. New features of SET were just added yesterday (command shell, etc) you should consider keeping it up to date.
with the terminal / pwnt/Expl0it/fasttrack #. / fast-track.py-i
and when you try to put everything up to date says that the directories are false
scripts as fast and set the configuration only know
/ pentest / exploits et blab, blab blab perhaps open to modify the script to recognize all.
Today I am a bit angry because I made yesterday’s work .. the world is mired in an economic crisis ..

When I installed, and configured, it I set the directories right. I only tested the web gui part. You can update it using svn. “cd /pwnt/Expl0it/fasttrack && svn update” should do it.
The truth is that Douglas has done a good job with this distribution.
Well even if the horse does not look like a superhero horse.
It seems like he does not give enough to eat
Just kidding ……… but do something to it.
How will we know the Europeans know much about horses .
LOL! I put the WeakNet Logo on the Knight’s shield though!
best distro :-)
now me and my students uses it as priority distro and secondary BT
thank you for nice work.
can u add W3AF in final ? it will be a nice addition to the distro.
Sure, I will make note of that! can you email me a link to the software? Thanks!
I created new directories pending a solution of the master and is so >>>>>
/pentest/exploits# ls
archive.tar.bz2 fasttrack framework3 SET
archive.tar.bz2.1 files.csv platforms update_exploitdb
the trouble is that not even pass the menu code, I mean shortcuts.
I have done cd / pwnt/Expl0it/fasttrack & & svn update “and now works at 100 thanks Sir.
why not ride a school on line with diploma or certificate at the end ,gaining a bit you could have thousands of people at one online and that’s not a lot of work
Good! And I would like to do that, which certifications, but I think you need a degree to be recognized. I am purely self-taught. :)
Can you please add the promised link to the Guide?
“How do change the screen resolution?”
Thanks, you rock! :)
Install your GPU driver first, then follow this guide: http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php?title=Change_resolution
Volume control buttons are working fine on my Presario F750US! Sweet!
Also added W3af (http://w3af.sourceforge.net/) Just follow their install instructions for python-nltk and all works fine.
I will definitely, thank you!
would have to ask ,also have a diploma from last year’s Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH)
Excellent work travelyn! but still get “uknown error 132″ for my rtl8187l drivers
any suggestions?
thanks!
When do you get that error? I’ve never seen that and I use RTL8187L for everything, even development.
I did a Google search and found this: “rfkill unblock all” try that command.
website for W3AF “http://w3af.sourceforge.net/”
and please can you remove h4x0r language from directory structure ?
aaawe, but I like it. :)
Keept it in then. ^_^ I like it too.
I found a little script ,i execute it with “rfkill commands”and i have
result “wireless radio is on”it works perfectly..
thank you very much travelyn!
cool! I love you guys! I guess I should add that to the final ISO.
ok that was because of the inconvenience of spelling a directory via shell.thank you for distro.
and can you add BeEF(browser exploitation framework)- “http://www.bindshell.net/tools/beef/” ?
and Wxf(web exploitation framework)- “http://www.owasp.org/index.php/WXf:_Web_Exploitation_Framework” ?
OMG I totally will! Thank you so much! :D
Looking great. Except, when i try to run Xorg -configure i get an error with i915.ko and in dmesg it says i915 unknown parameter ‘blacklist’ . I cant get a proper xorg.conf with my native resolution (1440×900) working for my laptop :( Thinkpad t410
Sorry, the Xorg -configure error is number of created screens does not match number of detected
I don’t think I blacklisted i915, but it does cause lots of issues with my development equipment. try to re-install it with
apt-get update && apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-intelStill a no go. I have even tried going back to kernel 2.6.32 and completely removed and reinstalled Xorg.
Okay, it’s blacklisted by Grub2. In the file:
/etc/default/grubyou will see'i915.blacklist=true'simply remove that from Grub andupdate-grubThan you should be able tomodprobe i915. Sorry, but that particular driver conflicts with my development machines.hi can not get to all protocols in proxy sector WEAKERTHAN.I would like to make an unauthorized test utiliy all available tools.is difficult because not all the tools we use to make distributions test protocols use the same connection
You woul have to simply change the configuration files (most likely in /etc) for each proxy you plan to use and choose different ports.
Magically disappeared from grub2 for no reason…
Yeah everyone seems to have a problem with Grub2 :/ that sucks. You may have to mount the drive using the live DVD and chroot the / partition, then run
update-initramfs -uI have ventured to make up and luxury upgrade.I do not get is configure the proxy in each test utility
I think it’s because the amount of beer I do take these people that I have in my house
and speak English like a Spanish cow
Hi everyone, can I upgrade from Weaknet 2 to Weaknet 3.6, because when I install Weaknet 3.6 next to other OS after installation went successful showing me only Weaknet distro in grub – I am using MBR for grub…Thanks in advance for your help.
Ven
Update grub. After config/reboot it should detect the other OS.
psywolf is right, do
update-grub[...] WEAKERTHAN Linux 3.6 BETA [...]
Hi could someone make a tutorial of how to configure tor for all WEAKERTHAN3 tools.

[...] WEAKERTHAN Linux 3.6 BETA [...]
Yeah, BT5 is an ugly piece of crap IMO. Weakerthan is far superior, especially in the looks department. Quite a few don’t like the missing wireless tools. l think their trying to push the Gerix cracker [which is their own creation, l believe]. A few complained at backtrack-linux and that so-called super mod by name of Archangel told them all the previous tools were just garbage for ‘skid stains’. He’s always been an arrogant clown with a God-Complex.
l don’t think tools like spoonwep and grimwepa are garbage myself. Wifite.py is a great tool [also missing from their arsenal]. There is a new one called FERN wifi cracker which looks good.
Good work guys, thanks.
Yeah, that’s unfortunate. I met the founder of OffSec at Shmoocon in 2009 and he told me he was trying to weed out a lot of people from their forums who were assholes. I still never returned. /fuckem
To be honest, this shit from Back|Track is the reason I started looking for another distro in the first place – and luckily found this! I cannot stand their arrogance in the forums. Ask a legitimate question and they tell you either you’re too dumb and shouldn’t be messing with it in the first place, or to Google search it – however, they say they use their own kernel so not to follow other instructions that aren’t from them! Arrogant bastards. Here we have a guy who loves his community and is willing to help them as much as he humanly can. Many, many thanks from your community.
I love weakerthan linux! I have tried many different pentesting distros (backtrack, blackbuntu, gnacktrack, etc.) and weakerthan has been the most fun & wifi friendly distro I’ve used. Thank you and please, keep up the good work!
Thank you!! :D That means a lot to me!
Good work on wpa.
Thank you :)
live usb install using http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ running off it now, long story on the dvd burner and me being cheap nice distro btw havnt had time to play with everything but looks good
Another damn good release from WeakNet Labs. Keep up the good work man. Still following your work. ^_^
can i get a complete list of tools installed in this release….
sure, when i get around to it, I’ll post it as a txt file.

Any word on when the final will be released?
Curious because I’m using Sabayon right now, and don’t want to switch until the final is out – it seems to be my luck that whenever I install a “beta” the final comes out a week later.
I’d say not for a least another few months. I have a lot going and I am actually going through the process of moving on August first. My things are all still in boxes from my divorce a few months ago and I left my CUDA servers in her basement so would have to obtain those soon too. Sorry about that! I’d say install it and I will most liekly keep the same kernel for the OS since it works well with AUFS and the discs and the mac80211 stack. I can simply code an updater script that those people who which to have akl the new features can run.

hi, i cant download weakerthan directly. where can i find torrent link for this..?
I don’t know of one (couldn’t find one in my short search anyhow) – what exactly is your issue you’re having? Works fine on this end. Have you tried using wget?
"wget http://weaknetlabs.com/weaknet/download/weakerthan/releases/Weakerthan_3.15.11-BETA-1.ISO"Should work nicely…

Hello I try to install it on a Parallel desktop WM but even if I try and retry I did not succed.
It seem that grub is not installed on MBR.
So I install it with grub – instal from live cd but it canot load root.
Also I cannot do a update-grub after grub-install and it’ s very strange.
In any case with grub-install it boot and it stops at the GRUB> prompt.
here I cannot do nothing as it see sda1 as a ext2 partition and not an ext4 partition.
Best regards
Guido
[...] I’ve been lucky enough to BETA test the new pCrack Suite (which will be included in WeakerThan 4) coded by Douglas, founder of WeakNet Laboratories. Here is a short video demonstration – [...]
its awesome….. im wanna try weakerthan
this live cd is the only distro that i can take full advantage of my crappy old onboard gfx, and turn my resolution up to 1360×768. thats awesome. but i’d love to copy the xorg info so i could try to paste it into my chakra or mint installs and use this resolution on those too. i’m getting a max of 1024×768 with every other distro and WeakerThan may perhaps be my problem solver! but i cant find the xorg file with the resolution stuff i need to copy over. any help would be greatly appreciated!!! thank you in advance!
The xorg.conf file is no longer needed by default like it used to be. You can try the “nvidia-xconfig” command so it creates an xorg.conf in /etc/X11/, BUT! be warned, it will try to use the nVidia drivers – so change it accordingly before reboot or you won’t be able to see your screen (unless you actually have an nVidia card). Hope this helps some.
Alternatively, you may try “Xorg -configure” after killing any X sessions (i.e.: gdm, kdm, xdm, etc.) which should generate a new xorg.conf based on the hardware it recognizes. Possibly “dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg” could be another solution (although is may change from the way things were originally set)?
Good job sir.
Thanks s1acker <3
seems to be no more versions of WEAKERTHAN
it’s a shame *–*
WT4 is in development. Not sure the status other than that – trevelyn will have more information. But WT distro is not dead! More to come. Taking some time cause he’s also working on new tools for it.
Hello, is that this distribution is still downloading?
If so, how found?
