Wifite v2

[Nytro]

Wifite v2 is now available

What's new in this version:

• support for cracking WPS-encrypted networks (via reaver)
  
• 2 new WEP attacks
  
• more accurate WPA handshake capture
  
• various bug fixes
  

Version 2 does not include a GUI, so everything must be done at the command-line.

mention in the New York Times

Wifite was mentioned in the New York Times' article "New Hacking Tools Pose Bigger Threats to Wi-Fi Users" from February 16, 2011. Here is a link to the article.

introduction

Designed and tested on Linux; works with Backtrack 5, BlackBuntu, BackBox, and Pentoo! Linux only; no windows or OSX support (but you're welcome to try).

purpose

To attack multiple WEP, WPA, and WPS encrypted networks in a row. This tool is customizable to be automated with only a few arguments. Wifite aims to be the "set it and forget it" wireless auditing tool.

features

• sorts targets by signal strength (in dB); cracks closest access points first
  
• automatically de-authenticates clients of hidden networks to reveal SSIDs
  
• numerous filters to specify exactly what to attack (wep/wpa/both, above certain signal strengths, channels, etc)
  
• customizable settings (timeouts, packets/sec, etc)
  
• "anonymous" feature; changes MAC to a random address before attacking, then changes back when attacks are complete
  
• all captured WPA handshakes are backed up to wifite.py's current directory
  
• smart WPA de-authentication; cycles between all clients and broadcast deauths
  
• stop any attack with Ctrl+C, with options to continue, move onto next target, skip to cracking, or exit
  
• displays session summary at exit; shows any cracked keys
  
• all passwords saved to cracked.txt
  
• built-in updater: ./wifite.py -upgrade
  

requirements

• linux operating system (confirmed working on Backtrack 5, BackBox, BlackBuntu, Pentoo, Ubuntu 8.10 (BT4R1), Ubuntu 10.04, Debian 6, Fedora 16)
  
• tested working with python 2.6.x, and python 2.7.x,
  
• wireless drivers patched for monitor mode and injection. Most security distributions (Backtrack, BlackBuntu, etc) come with wireless drivers pre-patched,
  
• aircrack-ng (v1.1) suite: available via apt: apt-get install aircrack-ng or at the aircrack-ng website,
  

suggested applications

• reaver, for attacking WPS-encrypted networks
  
• pyrit, cowpatty, tshark: not required, but help verify WPA handshake captures

examples

the program contains lots of interactivity (waits for user input). these command-line options are meant to make the program 100% automated -- no supervision required.

to crack all WEP access points:

./wifite.py -all -wepto crack all WPS access points with signal strength greater than (or equal to) 50dB:

./wifite.py -p 50 -wpsto attack all access points, use 'darkc0de.lst' for cracking WPA handshakes:

./wifite.py -all --dict /pentest/passwords/wordlists/darkc0de.lstto attack all WPA access points, but do not try to crack -- any captured handshakes are saved automatically:

./wifite.py -all -wpa --dict noneto crack all WEP access points greater than 50dB in strength, giving 5 minutes for each WEP attack method, and send packets at 600 packets/sec:

./wifite.py --pow 50 -wept 300 -pps 600to attempt to crack WEP-encrypted access point "2WIRE752" endlessly -- program will not stop until key is cracked or user interrrupts with ctrl+C):

./wifite.py -e "2WIRE752" -wept 0

donations

If you wish to donate to this project, I ask that you donate instead to the aircrack-ng team or you could buy something from Tactical Network Solutions. These are the teams which produced the awesome open-source software that wifite depends on. Wifite would not exist if not for these amazing tools.
