Use botbrew to simplify life of developers

[MuradMathematics]

Hello csploit base.

Today I found a app called "BotBrew" which claims to be able to run linux apps right from Android.
I found a guy on Google Plus who uploaded some pix:

BotBrew includes ruby so technically you can get Metasploit.

Seems to be an interesting app. If anyone could take a closer look at this, I would be very grateful for this.

Thanks in advance, MuradTroll

Yesterday it worked but now the botbrew repo is down (Http 502 error) and I cant test it. Will test it when the server is running again.

oh guys... what a shining stone you found...
I cannot believe that this project were around when I started working on the native part of dSploit.
I wasted entire weeks ... thank you so much for this suggestion, I'll switch to use botbrew as we close some high-priority issues.

thank you @MuradTroll or this precious suggestion.

@developpsoft thanks for the manual!

For shared libraries, we have the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable, but it is not very reliable. To remedy that, we use create symbolic links directly within /system/lib. ldimport does this for us, creating new links and removing dangling links without overwriting.

so botbrew is very invasive if the system linker do not honor the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. but I think that is acceptable for having our executable compiled with shared references instead of statically.

we have to test it out on lollipop, where shared libraries are painful due to the required -fPIE -pie compiler flags.

will see 😉

@tux-mind
Had to do long search to find it but was worth it. Even tough I didnt manage to install the whole gems (because I had to install so many .opkg files I just left it over), the ruby for android can be installed easily. Hope this helps you :)

It is similar to the KBOX project, which I found a while ago too (http://kevinboone.net/kbox2.html).

But all in all it seems to be a bit outdated, even tough it should work pretty good.
