In light of “Hacker Summer Camp 2022” (BlackHat USA, BSides LV, and DEFCON) occurring right now, we wanted to push out Kali Linux 2022.3 as a nice surprise for everyone to enjoy! With the publishing of this blog post, we have the download links ready for immediate .
The highlights for Kali’s 2022.3’s release:
- - Quickly create a test bed to learn, practice, and benchmark tools and compare their results
- - We are looking for a Go developer to help us on an open-source project
- - New VirtualBox image format, weekly images, and build-scripts to build your own
- .
Kali is on Discord
We have started up a new discord server, that OffSec has to offer).
This is a community server, all with common interests. We do not have the goal to get as many users as possible, instead, we are growing a place for each other to help one another. We are focusing on quality not quantity.
Please bear in mind, if you are looking for help, first search for your problem, ask questions, then wait for the community support from your peers. Remember no one is under obligation to help you, and you are more likely to get assistance if you are polite and show you have put some effort into solving your own issue.
Speaking of “real-time chatting”, we are going to be starting a new tradition. We will be doing an hour long session after every Kali release where various Kali developers will come and voice chat on Discord, answer questions about Kali and its direction, take your input, and so on. We will be sure to add details about this in every blog post release going forwards.
The first one is on Tuesday, 16th August 2022 16:00 -> 17:00 , using open-source solutions to match does make sense.
But we are not trying to be a trend setter - we are going with the crowd. We believe the key to a successful community is the community itself. We are not wanting to reinvent the wheel, we are not wanting people to sign up once again to another service, using another chat application, another thing that’s giving you notifications. If people are already there, we are going with them.
Lastly, we do not want to be focusing on running and maintaining infrastructure of a self-hosted solution for a real-time chat, as that takes us away from developing an OS with everything that goes with it.
What happened to IRC? In short, it’s still there. We are still using it from a Kali development perspective. The network may have changed (from Freenode to Libera Chat), but - Damn Vulnerable Web Application
- to get them all!
This list will be growing in the upcoming Kali releases!
At times, you may be running codes that are designed to be vulnerable. Please take the necessary steps to secure your environment.
Practice tools, sharpen skills, and benchmark alternatives
If you put all your trust into something without understanding it, there could be complications…
and . For this release, there’s been a few changes worth noting.
We now distribute the VirtualBox image as a VDI disk and a
.vboxmetadata file, or to say it short: the native format for VirtualBox images. It should be a bit faster to download, as those images have a better compression ratio compared to the OVA images that we used to provide. It should also be a bit more straightforward to use it, you just need to unpack the image in your VirtualBox folder and run it. In case you need help, refer to our documentation: . These images are built from the . If you need to build custom Kali VM images, this is the place to go!
Help Wanted
Do you know Go? The Kali team is looking for some help! Bonus points if you know Redis as well!
This work would be going into an already existing Open-Source project, . If you have any previous work to showcase, even better.
Why are you guys not doing it? Our development team has a maxed out roadmap and we don’t want to be waiting until items are closed out before this goes into production.
Other Kali updates
- For people who use Xrdp (like - Network Analysis Tool
- - Stealth post-exploitation framework
- - Password spraying attacks against Lync/S4B, OWA and O365
There have been numerous packages updates as well.
Kali NetHunter Updates
Full Android 12 support is getting closer to being a reality with 6 new kernels in our . It is still not for the fainthearted as a little tinkering is required to install all the components individually but we’re getting closer to releasing the first OnePlus image soon.
For the meantime, we have updated the apps in our ? We’d love to see you around!
Kali ARM Updates
- All Raspberry Pi devices have had their kernel upgraded to 5.15.
- Created (very similar to has had the broken sleep modes removed, so it should no longer go to sleep and be unable to wake up.
Kali Tools Documentation
A little off-topic, but also worth mentioning. Kali-docs is our documentation of Kali as an operating system. Kali-tools is our documentation for the tools inside of Kali.
We have also opened up the is our preferred option for videos rather than Vimeo/YouTube).
Please note, if there is too much “self-promotion”, submissions will be declined.

- for helping with Azure (Yes, it’s coming back soon…)
- for helping get a QEMU Vagrant image building - go ! And, in case you didn’t know, you can always follow how Kali is going by checking out the already!
Seasoned Kali Linux users are already aware of this, but for the ones who are not, we do also produce . But we gladly take :

You should now be on Kali Linux 2022.3 We can do a quick check by doing:
