Why BeEF is it harmful?
BeEF is not a harmful tool for users who are using it in a Linux environment. If you are using this tool in windows based Linux emulator make sure you have to uninstall the antivirus security software, don't compromise with security. If you really want to be an ethical hacker, start with Ubuntu. Here you will learn the debugging and resolution things. Once you feel comfortable with Ubuntu to feel free to move on Kali Linux or Parrot os. So BeEF is a secure platform for those how are using this in there Linux operating system rather than Linux based emulator.What are the requirements to install BeEF?
BeEF requires Ruby 2.5 or newer versions. If your operating system package manager no longer supports Ruby 2.5 (or newer), you can add the bright box PPA repository to get the latest version of Ruby. Use the command below if your system doesn't support Ruby 2.5 or above. sudo apt-add-repository -y ppa:brightbox/ruby-ng
Some other requirements should be there in your system listed below.
gem install bundler
sudo apt-get install git
sudo apt-get install curl

credentials:

passwd: "@_0000000000"
./beef (run beef)Now we will look we are going to know how to use hook.js once after BeEF gets started. All you have to do is create a simple HTML page or you can cone a website by using the command
wget HTTP://yahoo.com (you can clone any webpage)
this command will create a index.html file. Simply open a terminal and type commandgedit index.html
search for <head> and paste the script provided below the <head> section.
Note: IF YOU WANT TO USE THE COMMAND FOR ANDROID (TARGETED DEVICE) PLACE THE CODE UNDER <BODY> TAG FOR PC OR LINUX(TARGETED DEVICE) YOU CAN PLACE THE CODE UNDER <HEAD> TAG.
Now create localhost using same fine index.html to do that you can simply run a command
PHP -S localhost:8080 (and hit enter you can change the port number according to your need). If you want to know more about the localhost you can watch our video.
