If I connect to my VPN and then run arp -a the MAC address of my router changes to 00:00:00:00:00:02. Is this normal behaviour? What is the reasoning behind this?
Furthermore a MAC address spoofing is only of real concern when there are mo… Continue reading MAC address of router changes when i connect to VPN
Like when you open the network manager(the wifi list ) in the attacked devices while the attack is on, you see different fake networks on each device which is normal as it responds on the devices saved SSIDs probs…The thing is when you c… Continue reading How does karma attack work on multiple devices in the same time?
Suppose that in some scenario using SSL, a hacker has succeeded in obtaining the MAC address, but not the encryption.
Can this be detected?
Also, suppose he changes the MAC address: what should he also change in the IP and TCP layers?
If person Y sticks his adapter device into a fixed computer, person Y will be able to bypass MAC related restrictions since the inserted device has an unknown MAC-address. How do we protect from this beside enforced policy?
Assuming the re… Continue reading How do we protect from the assignation of an unknown MAC-address to the network interface?
When a Wi-Fi device is switched on, it starts spewing out probe requests to try and find a familiar access point. These probe requests contain the device’s MAC address and the SSID of the hotspot it’s looking for, which can potentially be used to identify a specific device and where …read more

I’m specifically referring to the macof tool (part of the dsniff package).
As I understand it, MAC flooding is meant to overload a switch’s CAM table, which maps MAC addresses to switch ports.
Where does specifying IP addresses and/or TCP … Continue reading When MAC flooding, why would an attacker specify IP addresses and/or TCP ports?
For one of my student projects, users remotely control a raspberry pi device via an app. This allows them view camera feed and also send out commands remotely.This data needs to be kept secure, Currently, I am trying to setup mac address f… Continue reading How to securely connect and send data between a raspberry pi and an app?
For making an (until now, un-) educated guess about the necessity of spending the effort of including the "Bluetooth LE Privacy" feature in a consumer, embedded device’s BT software, I am seeking information about the "neces… Continue reading Benefits of "Bluetooth LE Privacy" feature?
I’m working on a project to implement SDN in a network. One of my flows is redirecting to the Suricata IDS and the flow works in layer 2 with MAC address.
Since I’ve read that Snort only works in layer 3, I would like to know if it’s possi… Continue reading Suricata and rules based on MAC address
Background
In a standard 48-bit MAC address, the 7th (most significant) bit specifies whether it is a universally-administered address (UAA) or a locally-administered address (LAA).
If it is 0, then the MAC address is a UAA and the first 2… Continue reading Are there security reasons for prohibiting universal mac address modification?
