Updating Mutillidae on Metasploitable -2

[Skorpinok Rover]

Hi,

This is regarding how to update mutillidae on metasploitable -2 to the latest version OWASP Mutillidae II 2.5.18, metasploitable-2 comes preinstalled with old version of mutilliade 2.1.19. OWASP Mutillidae II is a free, open source, deliberately vulnerable web-application with 35 vulnerablities and challenges, the latest version is rock solid.

my credits & thanks to author Jeremy Druin (webpwnized) creator of mutillidae for his suggestion in updating mutillidae on metasploitable -2.

here is what i did

1. set virtual box network adapter to NAT

2. fire up metasploitable -2

3. this requires root so use sudo from msfadmin first.

4. cd /var/www

5 .ls

6. here you will see mutillidae folder,change the name of the existing folder to preserve the contents

mv /var/www/mutillidae /var/www/mutillidae.bak

7. then use SVN to install the replacement, go to sourceforge site svn subversion tab

type the code

svn checkout http://svn.code.sf.n...dae/mutillidae/ mutillidae-mutillidae /var/www

8. the downloaded version will be in folder mutillidae

9. you can delete the previous installation if you wish.

Thats all, when you go to localhost click reset database

Regards

skorpinok.
