Portable WAPT Pre-built VM set up


In the last post I described VMware host-only networking and the IP address’s to be assigned to each guest in the WAPT. This post will cover setting up the Samurai WTF and OWASP Broken Web Application VM’s. Since the Hacme VM will require an OS install, it will be covered in the next post.

First we must download the VM’s. Click the following links to download the VM’s:

            Samurai WTF
            OWASP Broken Web Applications

Once the VM’s have downloaded copy the download files to the portable hard drive.  

Samurai WTF is a Ubuntu based Linux distribution project focused on Web Application Testing, originally written by Kevin Johnson (securideas). At this time, the current version is 0.9.9, with version 2.0 in release candidate state.

Samurai WTF version 0.9.9 is an iso image. You can download the ISO from sourceforge. Once the ISO is downloaded, create a new VM using VMware virtualization software. Each VMware product has minor differences, but select the hardware options (memory, processor, storage, etc.) based on the resources in the system(s) this will be used on.

Samurai WTF version 2.0 is an iso image as well. You can download the zip file from sourceforge. Once the ISO is downloaded, create a new VM using VMware virtualization software. Each VMware product has minor differences, but select the hardware options (memory, processor, storage, etc.) based on the resources in the system(s) this will be used on.

Once Samurai is started, login, click here for the username and password. After login set the IP address to 172.16.254.250. For reference on setting static IP address in Ubuntu based Samurai, click here.

With Samurai setup, next set up OWASP Broken Web Applications (OBWA). You can downloaded the latest version here. Once the download is complete, extract the file to the portable hard drive. Using VMware, either import or open, depending on the VMware version being used, to use the prebuilt VM.

Once OBWA is started, login using root:owaspbwa. After login set the IP address to 172.16.254.200. OBWA is Ubuntu based, so setting the IP address is identical to setting the IP for Samurai.

With the IP’s set, a quick ping to Samurai and OBWA from each system will ensure that networking is set up on both hosts.

In the next post, I will discussing building the Hacme host. The Hacme host will have Windows XP SP 3 as the installed OS.  I will cover installing Hacme Bank, Hacme Books, Hacme Casino, Hacme Shipping, and Hacme Travel.
