Airsnort on windows is limited. You need a card that can be put into monitor mode under windows to capture the WEP packets. Linux drivers make this much easier. As for other tools, the package wep-tools contains a utility for brute forcing ASCII based WEP keys. These keys are generated using a simple algorithm that is unfortunately flawed. It essentially reduces the keylength of WEP from 64/128 down to around 21 bits in length. Given just a couple of encrypted data packets, an offline exhaustive brute-force attack can be done in about 10-15 seconds on such keys. - Aaron -----Original Message----- From: Max [mailto:mmo () remote-exploit org] Sent: Thursday, May 20, 2004 1:51 PM To: securityfocus () arkam it Cc: pen-test () securityfocus com Subject: Re: Wireless wep crackin on windows Well, there is a possibility to do airsnort on windows. But i would like to use a cd distro for that, but centrino wlan is not well supported. Anyway, i just posted a minute ago about my own new life distro focused on pentesting and wireless. Difference between knoppix-std and mine is usability card autodetection by kismet etc etc. Most known attack methods etc. i just copy my other post quickly below. Greetings Max _ Auditor security collection released Just like to inform, that i have released my penetration test distro right now on my companys website under the gpl. The main difference between phlack, fire and knoppix-std is, that it is focused on usability. As you know remote-exploit.org was focused in the past on wireless stuff, so you can bet that all the wireless stuff is included. No hassle to configure kismet etc, just plug in the card, start the scanner and go. But don't missunderstand, it is not focused on wireless, check the short description below or go to my companys website to see details and download links. Short description: The Swiss Army Knife for security assessments. A Linux-based, unified platform focused on penetration tests. The robust power of Open-Source tools without the hassles of configuring hardware or installing any additional software. This powerful toolset is started directly from the CD-ROM without any local installation. Independent of system hardware, Auditor security collection provides the user with over 300 powerful analysis tools for troubleshooting and securing networks and systems. Delivering powerful, functional tools in a user-friendly environment while eliminating complex configuration was our goal when enhancing knoppix and designing Auditor security collection. No other commercial or freely available analysis platform offers an equivalent level of usability with automatic configuration and focus on penetration testing.

Hi all, one of my clients want to see how secure is his wireless network, so had asked me to try to enter his wlan. I've never done wireless pentesting before, so I'm here to ask ^_______^ I'm basically using a windows machine, and i've already used netstumbler with my centrino wireless card to enumerate wlan networks, and with a gps receiver I can locate them on a map. I know there are many tools on linux for wep cracking, just like airsnort and others, but since I have little experience with linux OS, and I've to do this work in a few days, I'm searching for a wep cracker that can run on windows xp. Is there any one? Google did not help me ^_______^ Thanks in advance, -- Luca Dell'Oca CISSP Certified OPSA certified Analyst BS7799 Lead Auditor Arkam snc Via al Lago 68 21026 Gavirate (VA)
