Have you heard of an application that can do many things with the help of an android smartphone? If not, we will discuss it this time, to get to know the Termux application more closely.
Introducing, This Application Named Termux
Termux is an android terminal emulator which is also a Linux environment. This application can be run directly without requiring rooting on an android smartphone first. So it's quite easy, just plug and play.
As a terminal emulator for Android, Termux has a difference compared to other emulaotr terminals. That is the difference where he has his own package that has so many uses. And yes, some of them are operating Linux on Android and can even hack or defacing a website.
For those who do not know the term terminal, terminal is a term used for electronic or electromechanical devices used to enter data, display or print data from a computer or computer system. Previously, a terminal had a large enough size like DEC VT100, or IBM 2741. Now by using Termux it becomes more simple and handy because it can be run through a smartphone. The application that has been developed so far has also opened opportunities for you, developers to join in it.
This termux application was made by Fredrik Fornwall, an android developer. He has created many Android applications besides Termux. He began creating these applications since 2010. And in Google's ranking, Fredrik Fornwall appeared in the ranking of 100 applications in more than 5 countries.
The best known copyright application is Termux, which has more than 1 million installs. Not only termux, but also the React! Application, SMS reader, and Deltafx also have a high download rate.
How to use Termux
Domainesians simply download this application on Google Play Store and can directly install it. But to be able to run, this application must get permission from the user. You can set it by going to settings> then select apps> Termux> and select permissions. After that run run termux-setup-storage in the Termux application. The Termux application can also only be operated on Android with OS 5.0 or Android Lollipop.
However, it should be understood that this Termux can only be installed in internal memory. Because External memory usually has FAT32 or exFAT format. Which means it doesn't support to allow unix (unix permissions) and some special files such as sockets or symlinks. In addition, the Android system forces the use of noexec mount for user storage which means users cannot run binaries.
Termux for Hacking?
Can this Termux application be used for hacking a website? Yes, can! Termux can be used to hack a website using several additional tools on Andoroid and Chrome, including Hydra, Metasploit Framework, Nmap, Bettercap, Slowloris, and Sqlmap.
However, in this review we will not discuss how to hack a website. Or how to deface a website.
These 5 Packages Must Be in Your Termux
The package in this application functions like an addition or playstore, by giving us access to be able to see, add, delete or update a program. No less than more than 100 packages can be added to your Termux. With a total size of about 3 Gigabytes. And of that amount, there are at least 5 packages that "must" be added to the Termux application.
However, before you can enter the following command pkg upgrade && pkg upgrade, the purpose of this command is to update all packages that have been installed on Termux to the latest version.
Aria2C
Aria2C is a package that can help users to put downloaded files to the desired places. Usually users have difficulty putting the file they downloaded, either in internal memory or external memory. Simply put, Aria2C functions like Internet Download Manager on a PC.
And to install Aria2C you can use the aria2 pkg install. And how to use Aria2C is quite easy by entering the URL you want to download and Aria2C will show the download process of the desired file. And if you want to download many files at once, you can put a URL on each line.
To run the download, you can use this command aria2c -i links.txt --file-allocation = none -c --auto-file-renaming = false. With this command Aria2C will download the file with the url that already exists in the links.txt file. And the storage location can be checked using the pwd command.
Tree
Often have trouble finding files on Android storage? A Termux package named Tree will help find it. This application can show the location of files tucked in a hidden folder for example. To see the actual location of this file you can by giving the tree command, while to install it you can install the tree pkg.
Unrar
Not only the two pakcage above can be used, but also a unrar package to solve the problem of unrar files on storage media. So now the user has other options besides the android application which usually has lots of ads inside. And to run the unrar package, users can use pkg install unzip && pkg install unrar.
AG
AG is a package that can be used to search for files or even phrases (sentences) contained in a file. This package can be integrated with other packages such as Vim 8 or Neovim. AG is a very good package because it can work to find a file in a folder that has a lot of sub folders. To use it is also easy to enter the url in ag-i "url". And to search for files or keywords contained in the file, you can enter ag-i "url" file.txt.
NeoVim
Neovim is a package that is useful as a file editor. NeoVim is one of the many file editors starting from Nano, Vim, or Vi. But NeoVim is a better file editor because it is simpler and easier to use. NeoVim can be used to open a file via SFTP and FTP, so that it can edit files that are placed on the hosting without having to install the others. But make sure you have installed python 2 or 3 before. To use this package, simply enter nvim foo.bar by changing the name of the file opened in the foo.bar section.
Conclusion
Termux is an application that is multifunctional and can be used for various purposes. Not only needs to optimize the use of smartphones, but also can be used for hacking a website. This is what makes a lot of hackers and penetrators use this application to do evil, maybe one of your websites. Want to have the most secure hosting and domain services?
