Linux Smart Enumeration is a tool for pentesting and CTFs with verbosity levels. This script will show relevant information about the security of the local Linux system.
It has 3 levels of verbosity so you can control how much information you see.
In the default level you should see the highly important security flaws in the system. The level 1 (./lse.sh -l1) shows interesting information that should help you to privesc. The level 2 (./lse.sh -l2) will just dump all the information it gathers about the system.
By default it will ask you some questions: mainly the current user password (if you know it 😉 so it can do some additional tests.
How to use it?
The idea is to get the information gradually.
First you should execute it just like ./lse.sh. If you see some green yes!, you probably have already some good stuff to work with.
If not, you should try the level 1 verbosity with ./lse.sh -l1 and you will see some more information that can be interesting.
If that does not help, level 2 will just dump everything you can gather about the service using ./lse.sh -l2. In this case you might find useful to use ./lse.sh -l2 | less -r.
You can also select what tests to execute by passing the -s parameter. With it you can select specific tests or sections to be executed. For example ./lse.sh -l2 -s usr010,net,pro will execute the test usr010 and all the tests in the sections netand pro.

Ubuntu 26.04 LTS "Resolute Raccoon" was released on April 23, 2026 with Linux kernel 7.0, GNOME desktop, and standard security support until April 2031. A clean install gives you a known-good starting point on new hardware, when replacing another operating system, or when an upgrade path is not practical. This guide walks through how to install Ubuntu 26.04: downloading and verifying the ISO, writing a bootable USB drive, completing the installer, and doing the initial setup after the first boot. Before you start: You need a USB drive with at least 12 GB of free space. Back up any existing data on the target machine — the installer can erase the entire disk.

The correct timezone affects more than the clock on your screen. It drives cron job scheduling, systemd timer execution, log file timestamps, database record timing, and SSL certificate validity checks. A mismatched timezone can cause scheduled jobs to fire at the wrong hour and make log timestamps impossible to match with real-world events. This guide shows how to change timezone on Ubuntu using the timedatectl command (the recommended approach for servers and remote machines) and through the graphical Date & Time settings on desktop systems. The steps apply to all current Ubuntu releases including 24.04 and 26.04. <strong>Prerequisite:</strong> Only the root user or a user with sudo access can change the system timezone. Check the Current Timezone Before You Change It Run timedatectl with no arguments to see the active timezone and clock status: bashtimedatectl Sample output: Local…
