Now you will be wondering why do I need LIN
UX apps?
LINUX has a history of being a programmer centric so the purpose of TERMUX app is to help Cyber Security professionals in monitoring systems and Cyber Security practices like Penetration Testing through Mobile Networks.
Before we continue, a simple line explanation on its UI: its UI is command line interface based.
Think MS-DOS and all those computers of yesteryears which came before Windows and MacOS and you will know what I am talking about. No shiny icons or instructions. Just you and your skills.
Termux hacks : 2018
TERMUX apps like HYDRA and NMAP are easy to use and install. They are also platform independent and their Android versions are also identical to their LINUX versions.TERMUX’s uniqueness lies in its non-rooting installation facility. Rooting means having privileged facility over applications installed.
This feature makes it easy for users to install complex software like NMAP and HYDRA.
Termux Tools
NMAP is an open source Network mapper written by Gordon Lyon (also known as Fyodor Vaskovich). As the above suggests, its purpose is to scan for hosts and networks in a particular area through sending specially crafted data packets and analysing their responses. In the hands of Cyber Security experts, it is considered as an effective tool of Network Audit, performing Security Scans and for conducting other similar Network Security Activities.‘NMAP’ can be installed in TERMUX by typing the following: “pkg install nmap”. The installation is fast and swift. After that you can use ‘NMAP’ by typing out its name in the terminal.
HYDRA is another command line based computer program capable of performing dictionary attacks on exposed protocols and networks.
Termux Guide
Termux is available on Google PlayStore and F-Droid. Its free download and easy to use. One must also download its plugins which help the app interface with Android API.Pro Tip :
Also download Hacker Keyboard which has CTRL and ESC buttons in it. You’ll be needing it while working in the app. Better get it from F-Droid.
Let’s set it up now that we have downloaded the app. Since it’s a command line app like DOS, you have to rely on your memorising skills to master the app. Type the command: “pkg upgrade” to update all the built in packages then run “touch.hushlogin”. This helps unlock all the packages which you will require for your work.
For Example, a certain Mr. Konrad had after downloading the app acquired the following packages: Python, Ruby, NodeJS, GO and C Programming through the following magical code:
pkg install python cmakenodejs ruby golang
Moving on to setting workspace. TERMUX provides the following as default save location for all
your files:
/data/data/com.termux/files/home
But you can also change location by using the following example code:
mkdir notes gh homework temp
Next is configuring the dotfiles. Following is an example:
cd gh && git clone https://github.com/konradit/dotfiles.git && cp dotfiles/bashrc ~/.bashrc
Now install the basic packages using the following example and then Type exit to exit and enter the terminal again. The code is:
pkg install coreutilstermux-apitermux-exec termux-tools grep tree ncurses-utilsopensshgpg
Now you got a wicked terminal. Shorthand commands are:
n: cd $HOME/notes
nn: cd $HOME/notes && vim
t: cd $HOME/temp
gh: cd $HOME/gh
hh: cd $HOME/homework
Additionally you can just type the name of the directory and cd to it.If you want to have tmux run automatically when you enter the shell:
echo “tmux” >> ~/.bashrc
Pro tip: long press to copy/paste, change color scheme and change font!
The uses of TERMUX are limitless. There are people who host servers using it, some download youtube videos using it as sort of incognito mode methods plus there are also you-know “research” stuff done by certain individuals.
Given it’s a software, its list of useful commands are also limitless. Below is a list of sample commands provided by my friends used in TERMUX acquired by me due to sheer lack of proper resource material available for this paper. Here are the codes with their descriptions:
pip install youtube-dl | For installing Youtube-dl | ||
Packages install python | Installs Python | ||
termux-setup-storage | Gives TERMUX access to your file system | ||
mkdir ‘dir-name | For creating directory | ||
cd “dir-name” | For changing directory | ||
cat “file-name” | For reading any file | ||
mv /path/file /path where file is moved | For moving files from one path to another. | ||
cp /path/file /path where to copy file | For copying files from one path to other | ||
rm filename.file-extension | For removing mentioned file from a certain directory. | ||
ping “website URL” | Helps verify IP level connectivity | ||
toilet -f mono12 -F gay “your text” | Presents text in a specified format. | ||
apt show (app-name) | Gives a short but detailed summary on mentioned name of desired app. | ||
