Collaborate Disseminate
With regular WPA2-PSK there’s the fact that every device shares the same PSK, hence it’s possible to impersonate the AP by setting up an Evil Twin and watching the traffic. This isn’t possible without knowing the PSK, so for a setup where … Continue reading What kinds of attacks are eliminated in WPA2-PSK if for each device there’s a different (secret) PSK?
I have this line of code in a client server project:
sslContext.init(null, new TrustManager[]{new TrustAnyManager()}, null);
A security guy pointed out that this is skipping the validation of the certificate, but I don’t understand the se… Continue reading What is the security impact of disabling certificate check [duplicate]
Authentication alone will not stop a MITHM from intercepting and modifying plaintext exchanges, since he can let the authentication occur, then begin modifying the exchange data and neither end will sense anything wrong.
What am I missing … Continue reading In TLS, how are the Diffie-Hellman exchange parameters protected from a MITM attack? [duplicate]
Recently, I read news about Facebook acquired the Onavo VPN company to monitor Snapchat users’ traffic. It seems they executed a Man-in-the-Middle attack by replacing the certificate. But could they have executed the same attack if Snapcha… Continue reading Can a VPN company perform a MiTM attack if SSL Pinning is in place?
When I start MitM attack using bettercap, my target loses connectivity. When I search something in my target device, it shows that it is connected to Wi-Fi but has no internet access.
Continue reading Error in Bettercap when performing MitM [closed]
Could a Man-in-the-Middle (MITM) attack compromise the integrity of user-initiated transactions over HTTPS? Specifically, if a user selects an amount to donate on a website, is it possible for a hacker to intercept and modify the donation … Continue reading Preventing Data Tampering in HTTPS Requests: Safeguarding User-Initiated Donations
I recently encountered a scenario where Mobile Application is generating CSR request, call a POST API request and in response, Ask Server for certificate. Server will respond with the temporary certificate and Mobile Application will use t… Continue reading How to Capture Mobile API Requests in burp when Server side pinning is implemented
OS is Debian. Imagine I have my own apt repo set up inside a private network.
This repo is set up to provide a single package to other servers on this network.
I can easily create a signing key for my repo, but this scenario got me thinkin… Continue reading Is a MITM attack possible for my apt repo?
Would it be possible to create a fake twin access-point for a router with a custom DNS-configuration in a way to fool mobile apps like for example Instagram to send authentication requests to my own server instead of the Instagram servers?… Continue reading Fake access-point + custom DNS-server to intercept mobile app credentials?
I am wondering if there is a practical way to establish a secure, encrypted network connection through an MITM proxy given the ability to communicate secrets out-of-band with a second, external proxy. Let’s say the MITM is part of a corpo… Continue reading securely tunneling through a MITM proxy
