A Python script for auditing wireless networks


Do you know Wifite
It’s a great wifi auditing tool, designed for use with pentesting distributions of Linux, such as Kali Linux, Pentoo, BackBox and any Linux distributions with wireless drivers patched for injection (so the script appears to also operate with Ubuntu 11/10, Debian 6, and Fedora 16).

The developer, Derv82, has recently released a new version of the tool, Wifite 2, designed entirely for the latest version of Kali Rolling release, with the support for the latest versions of Aircrack-ng suite, wash, reaver, tshark and cowpatty.


The new tool maintains the same interface and command line argument of the previous, but introduces a lot of changes:

  • Lots of files instead of “one big script”.
  • Cleaner process management — No longer leaves processes running in the background.
  • UX: Target access points are refreshed every second instead of every 5 seconds.
  • UX: Displays realtime Power level (in db) of currently-attacked target

So, the updated feature list is:

  • Reaver Pixie-Dust attack (--pixie)
    (The attack works by exploiting weaknesses in the generation of the E-S1 and E-S2 nonces which are used to produce the enrollee hash)
  • Reaver WPS PIN attack (--reaver)
    (A brute force attack against WPS registrar PINs in order to recover WPA/WPA2 passphrases)
  • WPA handshake capture (--no-reaver)
  • Validates handshakes against pyrit, tshark, cowpatty, and aircrack-ng
  • Various WEP attacks (replay, chopchop, fragment, etc)
  • 5Ghz support for wireless cards that support 5ghz (use -5 option)
  • Stores cracked passwords and handshakes to the current directory, with metadata about the access point (via --crackedcommand).
  • Decloaks hidden access points when channel is fixed (use -c <channel> option)
  • Provides commands to crack captured WPA handshakes (via --crack command)

Installation

As usual, installation is very simple:

git clone https://github.com/derv82/wifite2.git
cd wifite2
./Wifite.py
