InstallGoOffensive

A bash script for security professionals and penetration testers to automatically install the latest version of Go and a curated collection of offensive security tools written in Go.

Overview

This script automates the installation of:

1. The latest version of Go (with architecture detection for both AMD64 and ARM64)
2. A comprehensive set of Go-based security tools commonly used in penetration testing and bug bounty hunting

Supported Operating Systems

• Debian-based systems (Ubuntu, Kali Linux, etc.)
• Arch-based systems (Arch Linux, BlackArch, etc.)

Prerequisites

The script will automatically install the necessary dependencies:

• For Debian-based systems: build-essential, libpcap-dev
• For Arch-based systems: base-devel

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/solidshadw/installgoofensive.git
cd installgoofensive

2. Make the script executable:

chmod +x install-tool.sh

3. Run the script:

./install-tool.sh

Features

• Architecture Detection: Automatically detects and installs the appropriate Go version for your system architecture (AMD64 or ARM64)
• Path Management: Adds Go to your PATH automatically
• Tool Installation: Installs tools to both $HOME/go/bin and /usr/local/bin for system-wide availability
• Error Handling: Provides clear feedback on which tools were successfully installed and which failed
• Idempotent: Can be run multiple times without duplicating installations

Caveats and Troubleshooting

• Shell Restart: After installation, you may need to restart your shell or source your shell configuration file to use Go:

  source ~/.bashrc  # or ~/.zshrc if using zsh

• Permission Issues: If you encounter permission errors, ensure you have sudo privileges.

• Tool-Specific Issues:

  • Some tools may require additional configuration after installation
  • For amass, the script uses the @master version tag instead of @latest due to specific requirements

Customization

You can easily add more tools to the script by adding additional install_go_tool lines with the appropriate parameters:

install_go_tool "tool_name" "github.com/author/repo" "binary_name"
