roguehostapd

Roguehostapd is a fork of hostapd, the famous user space software access point. It provides Python ctypes bindings and a number of additional attack features. It was primarily developed for use in the Wifiphisher project.

Build

To build the latest development version type the following commands:

git clone https://github.com/wifiphisher/roguehostapd.git # Download the latest version
cd roguehostapd # Switch to the roguehostapd directory
python setup.py install # Build the shared library of hostapd

Usage


python run.py -i wlan0 -ssid haha

Use wlan0 for spawning the OPEN rogue AP on channel 6 and the ssid is haha.


python run.py -i wlan0 -ssid haha -pK 12345678

Use wlan0 for spawning the WPA2/WPA rogue AP with passhrase 12345678


python run.py -i wlan0 -ssid haha -kA

Use wlan0 for spawning the OPEN rogue AP supporting the KARMA attack.


HOSTAPD_CONFIG_DICT = {
    'ssid': 'haha',
    'interface': 'wlan0',
    'karma_enable': 1}
HOSTAPD_OPTION_DICT = {
    'debug_level': hostapd_constants.HOSTAPD_DEBUG_OFF
}
HOSTAPD_OBJ = Hostapd()
HOSTAPD_OBJ.start(HOSTAPD_CONFIG_DICT, HOSTAPD_OPTION_DICT)

The above configuration will perform the KARMA attack.

Following are all the options along with their descriptions (also available with python run.py -h)
