Installing packages are easy in kali linux, but however some application requires you to type in some commands to execute, so this could get frustrating sometimes. So in-order to get rid of this fuss we could use ALACARTE and setup a Kali menu item. This can be done on anything from initializing Openvpn to loading Burpsuite pro. Lets see how?!

So for today we will take Burpsuite pro as an example and we would try adding it to the menu.

As you can see there is no menu item for burpsuite professional. So lets jump right into setting up one.

Step 1: Download Burpsuite Pro

Download Burpsuite pro from here.

Step 2: Unzip the downloaded burpsuite folder.

unzip ‘burpsuite pro creacked.zip’

Step 3: Run the extracted file.

java -jar burploader.jar

Step 4: Creating the license

This would load a license key generator, it would look like this

Now you can change the license name from the license text field. Once done click “Run”.

Step 5: Activating the Burp

Paste the License key on the pop up.
Click on the Manual activation button.

Copy the activation request to the keygen. To get athe activation response.

paste the activation response to finish the setup.

Now go accept those Terms and conditions and you are good to go.

Now you Burpsuite pro is setup and ready to Burpp.

Step 6 : Creating a Bash Script.

Now we need to create a script to execute our Burpsuite pro.

For that openup a terminal and enter the following.

“ nano Burp.sh”

Then enter these lines of code and make changes accordingly.

And give that file executable permission

notice how the listing of “Burp.sh” has changed to a bold font. It shows that your script now has executable permission.

Step 7: Open Alacarte

Step 8: Add an Item

now enter the following details

Note: Edit the command field with the script that you have created

Step 9: Done!

The Item is added to the menu list
