Damn Vulnerable Linux (DVL) – a live Linux distribution based on Slax, which is based on Slackware.
According to the project Web site: “Damn Vulnerable Linux (DVL) is everything a good Linux distribution isn’t. Its developers have spent hours stuffing it with broken, ill-configured, outdated, and exploitable software that makes it vulnerable to attacks.”
The idea behind this distribution is to train Linux admins.
