Download Kali Linux Images
We generate fresh Kali Linux image files every few months, which we make available for download. This page provides the links to download Kali Linux in its latest official release. For a release history, check our Kali Linux Releases page. Please note: You can find unofficial, untested weekly releases at http://cdimage.kali.org/kali-weekly/. Downloads are rate limited to 5 concurrent connections.
Are you looking for Kali Linux ARM images? The good folks at Offensive Security (who are also the funders, founders, and developers of Kali Linux) have generated alternate flavors of Kali using the same build infrastructure as the official Kali releases. ARM architecture Kali images produced by Offensive Security can be found on the Official Offensive Security Kali Linux ARM Images page.
Download Kali Linux Images Securely
When you download an image, be sure to download the SHA256SUMS and SHA256SUMS.gpg files that are next to the downloaded image (i.e. in the same directory on the Kali Linux Download Server). Before verifying the checksums of the image, you must ensure that the SHA256SUMS file is the one generated by Kali. That’s why the file is signed by Kali’s official key with a detached signature in SHA256SUMS.gpg. Kali’s official key can be downloaded like so:
# or...
$ gpg --keyserver hkp://keys.gnupg.net --recv-key 44C6513A8E4FB3D30875F758ED444FF07D8D0BF6
# ...and verify that the displayed fingerprint matches the one below
$ gpg --fingerprint 7D8D0BF6
pub rsa4096 2012-03-05 [SC][expires: 2021-02-03]
44C6 513A 8E4F B3D3 0875 F758 ED44 4FF0 7D8D 0BF6
uid [ unknown] Kali Linux Repository <devel@kali.org>
sub rsa4096 2012-03-05 [E][expires: 2021-02-03]
Once you have downloaded both SHA256SUMS and SHA256SUMS.gpg, you can verify the signature as follows:
gpg: Signature made Tue 13 Feb 2018 03:33:53 AM EST
gpg: using RSA key 44C6513A8E4FB3D30875F758ED444FF07D8D0BF6
gpg: Good signature from "Kali Linux Repository <devel@kali.org>"[unknown]
gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature!
gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
Primary key fingerprint: 44C6 513A 8E4F B3D3 0875 F758 ED44 4FF0 7D8D 0BF6
If you don’t get that “Good signature” message or if the key ID doesn’t match, then you should stop the process and review whether you downloaded the images from a legitimate Kali mirror.
