Download Kali Linux Weekly Builds
We generate weekly Kali images so you can always get a fresh ISO whenever you need it. The ISOs will be generated each Sunday and will be versioned as “-W”.
Once all builds are generated, they will be available via cdimage.kali.org/kali-images/kali-weekly. Each weekly release will have it’s own SHA256SUM file which will be available at cdimage.kali.org/kali-weekly/SHA256SUMS
