Review the complete exam objectives at. Cracking a WiFi connection is a essential part of wardriving but for a and a ethical hacker WiFi or network security is an important part. Also Read: Step 2 Enable XTerms Click on any blank spot in fern a popup will appear check Enable XTerms and choose OK. After successful 4-way Handshake is captured, Fern will automate brute force with the help of Dictionary file. Оговорюсь сразу, тем кто хочет понимать и разобраться как взламывать wi-fi сети и использовать для этого утилиты типа , данная статья не подходит. Could you tell me please, how much time does Fern WIFI Cracker takes if I bruteforce WPA encryption with WPS flaw in condition of processing power 2. Once Fern has captured the handshake it will start the bruteforce attack. In this tutorial, you will learn how to use fern WiFi cracker which is an easy to use graphical WiFi cracking tool which comes pre-installed with Kali Linux. What tools are you going to use? One nice feature is to check the Enable XTerms option which will have Fern open up the Terminal windows during its usage to see what the program is doing in the background. On Ferns home screen the networks being detected will start populating next to the WiFi WEP or WiFi WPA buttons. Choose the access point you want to get the password and upload a dictionary file by clicking on the Browse button.

I will be using the Fern WiFi Cracker open source wireless security tool included in the Kali Linux and Backtrack 5 r3 security distros. Before attempting to use Fern or any other utility in Kali or Backtrack please make sure to read the help and MAN pages for a complete description of the program options and switches. This demo is for wireless pentesting educational purposes and to emphasize the insecurities of using a weak or common dictionary word for wireless network authentication and encryption security key or passphrase. Fern Wi-fi Cracker can crack WEP, WPA, and WPA2 secured wireless networks. Fern basically takes the command line utilities to crack these networks and puts them in a GUI. Very simple to use… scary easy! Fern also provides some extra functionality for hijacking sessions and locating a computers geolocation via its Mac address, but I have not tested with these features. For this demo I will be using Backtrack 5 r3 running in VMware Workstation on a Win 7 host. Originally I was using Fern in Kali and ran into some issues with my wireless adapter and with the program freezing or not opening after updating it. I have the fixes I discovered in another for anyone else that may have these same problems. On occasions I have had to bring the wireless adapter interface up using the following command. If your wireless interface does not show in the list hit the Refresh button and try again. Before starting the scan double-click on any blank area of the Fern home screen to bring up the Access Point Scan Preferences screen. You can set the channel option to scan a single channel or leave it at the default All Channels. One nice feature is to check the Enable XTerms option which will have Fern open up the Terminal windows during its usage to see what the program is doing in the background. Click OK when done. Back on the Fern home screen click the Scan for Access points button. Two Terminal windows will open; one showing the WEP enabled networks no screen shot , and another showing the WPA enabled networks. The top part of the WPA Scan Terminal window shows the networks being found, and the lower part shows any connected client devices. For a WPA attack to work it requires a connected client. The most important part of the attack will kick the client off the wireless network and capture the 4-way handshake when the client device re-authenticates to the network. If the network you want to pentest has no connected client your out of luck! On Ferns home screen the networks being detected will start populating next to the WiFi WEP or WiFi WPA buttons. I have been seeing less and less WEP enabled networks, so that is a good thing! Clicking on the WiFi WEP or WiFi WPA button will bring up the Attack screen and the top pane will list the networks found. I will use the Regular Attack option, but there is a WPS Attack option and I believe Fern uses the Reaver utility to launch the WPS attack. You can read more about Reaver by clicking. With the Regular Attack and the wordlist selected hit the Attack button. Fern will start the attack and on the left side of the screen the attack steps will turn yellow as Fern works through the various steps. The most important step is capturing the 4-way handshake and Fern will open an aireplay-ng Terminal window showing the progress of deauthentication if XTerms is checked in the preferences of the connected client. It may take several attempts to deauth a client and capture the 4-way handshake. Once Fern has captured the handshake it will start the bruteforce attack. If the WPA key is in the wordlist being used it will display the found key in Red. As I mentioned I setup a passphrase I knew would be found quickly, and from start to finish this attack took under 4 minutes! Back on the Fern main screen is a Key Database button and it now shows one entry. Clicking the Key Database button will display the found keys. Conclusion Using a common dictionary word for a WPA or WPA2 passphrase makes it easier to hack with utilities like Fern. The Fern utility is free to download and simple to use, and not everyone is going to use it for legit wireless pentesting purposes. With possession of the WPA key a person can associate to network and have a gateway to the internet, or they could launch other attacks. For example, with possession of the WPA key the attack could be expanded to include decryption of the data traffic of the legitimate clients on the wireless network. Thanks for reading and stay wireless secure! It has been years since I have done any wireless pentesting and used some of these tools… some of these tools can be very temperamental, and a generic message of something is not working does not give me much to go on to provide any assistance. If there is a specific error message or behavior that is happening you can Google that for clues… Google was my best friend in similar instances when I would run into issues! I do believe there is a utility in Backtrack called genpmk that can create WPA hash tables or word lists, but I have not messed with it. This might be a topic I can try to write about in the future, but in the meantime you can Google search and see if anyone else may all ready have instructions on genpmk. Sorry I could not give you a better answer. Could you tell me please, how much time does Fern WIFI Cracker takes if I bruteforce WPA encryption with WPS flaw in condition of processing power 2. While I was cracking WPA with dictionary attack on Airocrack-ng it shows 500 words per second. Can I guess same indications on Fern Cracker or is it cracks less combinations because my microprocessor is generating them? Do you have some articles about WPS cracks and How it works on Fern WIFI Cracker? Fern is a GUI interface and uses the Reaver utility to crack the WPS flaw. I used the Reaver utility and usually run into issues as most APs notice the repeated tries of pins and stop answering the requests. There are settings to control asking a new pin less frequently to trick the AP, but many successful attacks with Reaver take hours, and I look at other attacks before Reaver since I get impatient with Reaver! Fern and some of the other WiFi tools can be a challenge at times to get to work! I went through a lot of issues with Fern, and the power of Google is your friend to research any issue! It could be anything from your WiFi adapter is not able to do all the functions, or the install may be corrupt, or a config setting may be set wrong. Please post any error messages or more details of your issue and I can try to help diagnose what the issue is.
