Kali Linux 2023.4 released with GNOME 45 and 15 new tools

Kali Linux 2023.4, the fourth and final version of 2023, is now available for download, with fifteen new tools and the GNOME 45 desktop environment.
Kali Linux is a Linux distribution created for ethical hackers and cybersecurity professionals to perform penetration testing, security audits, and research against networks.
With this final release of 2023, the Kali Team says there are not many new features added to the core operating system, but they did bundle fifteen new tools, and the distro now ships with the GNOME 45 desktop environment.
We say it with every release, but it wouldn't be a new Kali Linux release without some new tools toys to play with.
Havoc - Modern and malleable post-exploitation command and control framework.
PassDetective - Scans shell command history to detect mistakenly written passwords, API keys, and secrets.
In addition to the new tools, Kali says they upgraded the Kernel version to 6.3.7.
If you prefer using GNOME over KDE, you will be happy to learn that Kali Linux now comes with GNOME 45.
The Kali Team has also created new builds and made them available on various platforms.
Starting with Kali Linux 2023.4, both Kali Linux AMD64 and ARM64 on Amazon AWS and Microsoft Azure marketplaces allowing you to easily deploy Kali to the cloud the way you want.
The Kali Team has also added support for deploying Kali Linux on Hyper-V using Vagrant.
Finally, you can now install Kali Linux on Raspberry Pi 5 through a new dedicated image or by building it yourself.
To start using Kali Linux 2023.4, you can upgrade your existing installation, select a platform, or directly download ISO images for new installs and live distributions.
For those updating from a previous version, you can use the following commands to upgrade to the latest version.
List sudo apt update && sudo apt -y full-upgrade cp -vrbi /etc/skel/.
&& sudo reboot -f. If you are running Kali on the Windows Subsystem for Linux, upgrade to WSL2 for a better experience, including the ability to use graphical apps.
You can check the WSL version used by Kali with the 'wsl -l -v' command in a Windows command prompt.
