Platforms: Linux · Last verified September 6, 2026

This package contains a Simple SSL Enabled HTTP server with the primary purpose of phishing credentials via Basic Authentication. The power of phishery is best demonstrated by setting a Word document’s template to a phishery URL. This causes Microsoft Word to make a request to the URL, resulting in an Authentication Dialog being shown to the end-user. The ability to inject any .docx file with a URL is possible using phishery’s -i [in docx], -o [out docx], and -u [url] options.

Only use this tool against systems you own or are explicitly authorized to test — see the disclaimer.

Getting started

Install on Kali Linux with `sudo apt install phishery`. See the official Kali tool page and upstream homepage linked above for full usage and configuration details.
