Conventional WPA2 attacks work by listening for a handshake between client and Access Point. This full fourway handshake is then used in a dictonary attack. This tool is a Proof of Concept to show it is not necessary to have the Access Point present. A person can simply listen for WPA2 probes from any client withen range, and then throw up an Access Point with that SSID. Though the authentication will fail, there is enough information in the failed handshake to run a dictionary attack against the failed handshake.
Installation
Sample CodeCode:Select Allsudo python setup.py install
Command FlagsCode:Select All$ python halfHandshake.py -r sampleHalfHandshake.cap -m 48d224f0d128 -s "no place like 127.0.0.1"
Capture Half Handshakes
- -r Where to read input pcap file with half handshake (works with full handshakes too)
- -m AP mac address (From the 'fake' access point that was used during the capture)
- -s AP SSID
- -d (optional) Where to read dictionary from
You should begin to see device probes with BSSID set as (not associated) appearing at the bottom. If WPA2 SSIDs pop up for these probes, these devices can be targetedCode:Select Allsudo airmon-ng start wlan0 sudo airodump-ng mon0
Setup a WPA2 wifi network with an SSID the same as the desired device probe. The passphrase can be anything
In ubuntu this can be done here
http://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/2014/09/3-ways-create-wifi-hotspot-ubuntu/
Capture traffic on this interface.
In linux this can be achived with TCPdump
(optional) Deauthenticate clients from nearby WiFi networks to increase probesCode:Select Allsudo tcpdump -i wlan0 -s 65535 -w file.cap
If there are not enough unassociated clients, the aircrack suite can be used to deauthenticate clients off nearby networks http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=deauthentication
WPA2 HalfHandshake Crack 1.0
Capture enough of a handshake with a user from a fake AP to crack a WPA2 network without 4way
