Damn Vulnerable Linux (Paperback)


Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Damn Vulnerable Linux is a distribution of GNU/Linux geared toward computer security students. It functions as a tool for observing and studying vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel and popular user space software. It is available as a live DVD, and may be run through a virtual machine within any host operating system. Damn Vulnerable Linux is a Slackware and Slax-based live DVD. The distribution, purposefully stuffed with broken, ill-configured, outdated and exploitable software, began life as a training system used during the author's university lectures. Its primary goal is to design a Linux system that is as vulnerable as possible -- in order to teach and demonstrate a variety of security topics, including reverse code engineering, buffer overflows, shell code development, web exploitation, and SQL injection.
