| // Example below is with mitm6 (https://github.com/fox-it/mitm6/) | |
| // Note: Adding the '--add-binary' option here is specific to mitm6, not required in all cases. | |
| # pip install pyinstaller | |
| # pyinstaller --clean -F --add-binary="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython2.7.so.1.0:." ./mitm6.py | |
| // The step above will create a single binary in the ./dist/ directory called mitm6 | |
| // Install staticx and dependencies | |
| # apt update && apt install binutils patchelf | |
| # pip install patchelf-wrapper | |
| # pip install scons | |
| # git clone https://github.com/JonathonReinhart/staticx | |
| # cd staticx | |
| # scons | |
| # python setup.py install | |
| // Now create the statically linked binary using staticx and the output from PyInstaller | |
| # staticx /opt/tools/mitm6/mitm6/dist/mitm6 /tmp/mitm6.static | |
| # file /tmp/mitm6.static | |
| /tmp/mitm6.static: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (GNU/Linux), statically linked, BuildID[sha1]=bc235534bcd37c68e25822e87e19cac99377d865, for GNU/Linux 3.2.0, not stripped |
python >=3.5 , you can just pip install staticx
Ah good to know, thank you
