In my Cryptography & Network Security course, my professor mentioned that you can "knock off" a station of a network by abusing the timings of the exponential off algorithm used in CSMA/CD and CSMA/CA. He explains that the at… Continue reading Can exponential back-off be abused to "knock off" a station off a network?
I came across these attacks, but every explanation I come across lacks clarity
Random Frame-Stress Attack:
A large number of packets is generated, randomly varying several
fields within each packet and leaving only the source and destinat… Continue reading Switch security – Multicast brute force attack and random frame attack
I am working on an open source project, and am currently stumped.
Let’s say I have a client connect to a wireless WPA network I am not authenticated to the wireless network I just have a wireless card in monitor mode. Is there a way Is the… Continue reading Force A Reply WPA/WPA2
I am reading on https://tryhackme.com/room/introtonetworking, it is talking about OSI model.
It said that Data Link layer trailer can increase security as the data can’t be intercepted and tampered. How can it do it?. If it is because of t… Continue reading How Data Link layer trailer prevents data from being intercepted and tampers
I was wondering if it would be possible to create some sort of ethernet passthrough device, but this device also functions as a layer 2 mac address spoofer, which can be used with any device without the need for a software mac address spoo… Continue reading Would it be possible to create an external mac address spoofer?
Let’s imagine a data link layer level MITM attack. Is it possible to fulfill all of the following points?
you completely hide your identity by forging your own MAC address
you create malformed packets, so the router doesn’t even know you … Continue reading Is the perfect MITM attack possible?
I know that WEP has been replaced by TKIP. TKIP still uses RC4, but in it the Initialization Vector (IV) is longer and it’s used with the MAC of the sender and a hardcoded WEP key to generate the key used in RC4. I also read … Continue reading Algorithm that change keys in TKIP
for a secure network, I now have the requirement to encrypt the network traffic between two locations (within a building, connected via one ethernet cable) so that no man-in-the-middle attacks are possible at the management l… Continue reading Encrypt L2 traffic between two buildings via network cable [on hold]
At home I have two laptops (running on Windows). With one laptop (attacking laptop) I try to get in the middle of the connection of other laptop (victim laptop).
To do this is run Kali Linux in a virtual environment using Vi… Continue reading MITM using ARP spoofing with Kali Linux running on VirtualBox with bridged wifi network adapter
