Collaborate Disseminate
On wireless network running under WPA2 protocol, the communication between a client and the AP is encrypted using a session key (calling it that way, but if there’s a more exact term I’d be glad to edit it) that is exchanged … Continue reading Why don’t we need a WPA handshake on a ARP spoofing MiTM attack?

Rapid7 has disclosed nine vulnerabilities in Orsam Lightify Pro and Home smart lighting products, some of which can be used as a pivot point for remote attacks. Continue reading Unpatched Smart Lighting Flaws Pose IoT Risk to Businesses
I have read several articles that discuss the differences between WEP and WPA but I haven’t seen an answer to my question, which is :
How is the authentication used in WPA different from that used in WEP from a user’s persp… Continue reading Authentication in WPA from a user’s perspective

I’m trying aircrack-ng attack like below:
crunch 1 2 -f /usr/local/Cellar/crunch/3.6/share/charset.lst mixalpha-numeric|aircrack-ng -b 90:F6:52:80:B9:E2 -w - ~/DumpLog*
⋮
Crunch will now generate the following number of lines: 221918520426688
⋮
and it can’t finish. I see that it should go through Petabytes in relatively small amount of time (here’s example of 10 letter pwd cracked in 30mins: Cracking WPA key with crunch | aircrack)
I’ve tried simply
crunch 1 2 -f /usr/local/Cellar/crunch/3.6/share/charset.lst mixalpha-numeric|aircrack-ng -b 90:F6:52:80:B9:E2 -w - ~/DumpLog*
Crunch will now generate the following amount of data: 11656 bytes
0 MB
0 GB
0 TB
0 PB
Crunch will now generate the following number of lines: 3906

Let’s say we have a WPA2-PSK secured AP and there are several clients like smartphones and notebooks that automatically connect to it.
Now if someone was to create another AP that looked completely the same from the outside (same channel, … Continue reading How does WPA2-PSK prevent evil twin password phishing?
I’ve read on a few sites that it’s possible to conduct MITM attacks over WPA2-secured connections. So for example I could replace the content of a site a user tries to access over HTTP. Is this true? If so, how? My understand… Continue reading MITM over WPA2 (e.g. with ettercap)
from what I’m reading online it seems that one can land attacks and successfully crack a WPA2-PSK wifi network, is that true and if it is, how home users can secure their networks? I seen an application on android that can re… Continue reading If WPA2-PSK is insecure, what other options do home users have?
