I use kali-rolling on a virutal machine and I try to set up a fake access point using airbase-ng, but my devices won’t connect to it whatsoever. My steps are:
I put my wirless adapter in monitor mode with airmon-ng and then … Continue reading Can’t connect to fake AP with airbase-ng
Assuming a network which has absolutely no support for SSL/TLS, as rationalised by this blog post, is it possible guarantee the security of privileged operator connections?

Wireshark shows all the usual source/destination packet info. Nothing out of the ordinary is showing up for the most part. However, I’m seeing packets sent to my routers MAC address, but there are several packets that are bei… Continue reading IP Address outside of DHCP scope and reservations showing up in WireShark output

Google’s Project Zero team dubs a new WPAD-related attack as an “aPAColypse Now” that allows a local attacker to compromise a targeted and fully patched Windows 10 PC. Continue reading Project Zero Chains Bugs for ‘aPAColypse Now’ Attack on Windows 10
My Current Background on the topic
DHCP Spoofing is done by a rogue DHCP server on the network which replies to DHCP requests from hosts(Attacker can run a DHCP starvation attack on the legitimate DHCP server to stop it from handing away IP addresses).
The rogue server can spoof the gateway & DNS servers therefor all DNS & Traffic going away from local subnet will start to flow to the attacker. The attacker then forward the received traffic accordingly so the hosts won’t notice any disruption in connectivity and effectively pulling off a MITM attack.
In ARP Poisoning, attacker send spoofed arp messages to the network and arp cache of the switch will have wrong information so the switch starts to send traffic to the attacker (which should originally go to another host or default gateway)
DHCPDISCOVER, DHCPOFFER, DHCPREQUEST & DHCPACK are broadcast messages so typically all hosts in the local subnet will receive all this messages anyway. Even if the attacker has already done some ARP poisoning on the local subnet it won’t affect the process of DHCP.
ARP is used for resolving Internet layer addresses into link layer addresses.Since ahost does not have an IP address until DHCP process is completed ARP attacks seems useless on DHCP
My Question
As per my understanding These two attacks are two different ways that can be used to achieve same results. But I need to clarify this without any doubt.
Is there any way you can pull off a DHCP Spoofing attack by using ARP poisoning?

A domain name system server implementation is at risk of remote code execution, information exposure and denial-of-service attacks after a seven vulnerability were disclosed by Google and patched by the maintainers of Dnsmasq. Continue reading Google Warns of DoS and RCE Bugs in Dnsmasq
I have to give a demo in my class on installation and configuration of isc-dhcp-server. Now this is quite easy, so I thought that I should show something interesting to incite interest.

The client and the DHCP server exchange four messages (Discover, Offer, Request and Acknowledge) before reaching agreement on leasing a certain IP address for a certain time. On the other hand, the attack consists of spoofing… Continue reading DHCP Starvation attack
I’ve installed DHCP server in VirtualBox host-only network type. Other clients in VirtualBox can get their IP addresses successfully from my DHCP server.
