This is a collection of setup scripts to create an install of various security research tools. Of course, this isn't a hard problem, but it's really nice to have them in one place that's easily deployable to new machines and so forth.
Installers for the following tools are included:

There are also some installers for non-CTF stuff to break the monotony!
Category | Tool | Description |
---|---|---|
game | Dwarf Fortress | Something to help you relax after a CTF! |
To use, do:
# set up the path
/path/to/ctf-tools/bin/manage-tools setup
source ~/.bashrc
# list the available tools
manage-tools list
# install gdb, allowing it to try to sudo install dependencies
manage-tools -s install gdb
# install pwntools, but don't let it sudo install dependencies
manage-tools install pwntools
# uninstall gdb
manage-tools uninstall gdb
# uninstall all tools
manage-tools uninstall all
# search for a tool
manage-tools search preload
Where possible, the tools keep the installs very self-contained (i.e., in to tool/ directory), and most uninstalls are just calls to git clean
(NOTE, this is NOT careful; everything under the tool directory, including whatever you were working on, is blown away during an uninstall).
To support python dependencies, however, make sure to create a virtualenv before installing and using tools (i.e., mkvirtualenv ctf
).
To add a tool (say, named toolname), do the following:
- Create a
toolname
directory. - Create an
install
script. - (optional) if special uninstall steps are reuired, create an
uninstall
script.
The install script will be run with $PWD
being toolname
. It should install the tool into this directory, in as contained a manner as possible.
Ideally, full uninstallation should be possible with a git clean
.
The install script should create a bin
directory and put its executables there.
These executables will be automatically linked into the main bin
directory for the repo.
They could be launched from any directory, so don't make assumptions about the location of $0
!
The individual tools are all licensed under their own licenses. As for ctf-tools itself, it is "starware". If you find it useful, star it on github (https://github.com/zardus/ctf-tools).
Good luck!
