A collection of hopefully useful Linux Commands for pen testers, this is not a complete list but a collection of commonly used commands + syntax as a sort of “cheatsheet”, this content will be constantly updated as I discover new awesomeness.

Linux Penetration Testing Commands

The commands listed below are designed for local enumeration, typical commands a penetration tester would use during post exploitation or when performing command injection etc. See our pen test cheat sheet for an in depth list of pen testing tool commands and example usage.

Linux Network Commands
