Reaver performs a brute force attack against an access point’s WiFi Protected Setup pin number. Once the WPS pin is found, the WPA PSK can be recovered and alternately the AP’s wireless settings can be reconfigured. Requires linux wget http://reaver-wps.googlecode.com/files/reaver-1.2.tar.gz tar -xzvf reaver-1.2.tar.gz cd reaver-1.2/src/ ./configure make make install airmon-ng wlan0 reaver -i mon0 -b -vv Doesn’t work against my Belkin N300
Ok another WEP cracking guide because I just felt there wasn’t enough out there already I am going to crack my wireless access point with a Macbook pro running Backtrack 5 as a virtual machine. To do this in a virtual machine you must use a usb wifi adapter, built in hardware will NOT WORK in a VM. Watch the video to see it in action and then read the post full the break down My setup is as follows Backtrack 5 R1 VM USB Alfa AWUS036H (100mW) wifi adapter with 5dB arial (Very cheap off eBay and a lot [ Read More ]
This will give you a quick run down on how to brute force your router if it uses HTTP BASIC AUTH using THC-HYDRA If you receive a popup window when you try to access your router, then this method should work for you. Read the article then watch the movie
Aircrack would not play nice on Ubuntu with a Intel Wireless iwl3945 wifi adapter It would always say “mon0 is on channel -1, but the AP uses channel x” Solution: You need to patch the compact-wireless package and rebuild Copy and paste the below commands into a terminal Install your kernel headers if you don’t already have them, if you do skip the first command Code: sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) wget http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-3.0-stable/v3.0/compat-wireless-3.0-2.tar.bz2 tar -jxf compat-wireless-3.0-2.tar.bz2 cd compat-wireless-3.0-2 wget http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/channel-negative-one-maxim.patch sudo apt-get install patch patch ./net/wireless/chan.c channel-negative-one-maxim.patch make sudo make install sudo make unload sudo reboot
