Users documentation

Deploy

Download the binary on the vuln-box

You can download the latest resease from here.

Usage

Warning: The cerbero binary needs root privileges to run.

Run with config file

The binary can get the configuration from a json file (see config.json as an example).

cerbero file <path_to_config> [...options]

The file mode is more suited for development/debugging.

Run with socket

When used in conjunction with cerbero-web, you must run the binary in socket mode and specify the correct socket address:port pair.

cerbero socket <socket_address:socket_port> [...options]

For example, if in cerbero-web (deployed on the same machine as the binary) you decided to run the TCP socket server on port 1234 (specified in the .env file by the SOCKET_PORT variable) this command will do the job:

cerbero socket localhost:1234

The socket mode is the preferred way to run cerbero in an A/D CTF.

Help
