Aircrack-ng is a network software suite consisting of a detector, packet sniffer, WEP and WPA/WPA2-PSK cracker and analysis tool for 802.11 wireless LANs. It works with any wireless network interface controller whose driver supports raw monitoring mode (for a list, visit the website of the project or [1]) and can sniff 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g traffic. The program runs under Linux and Windows; the Linux version has been ported to the Zaurus and Maemo platforms, and a proof-of-concept port has been made to the iPhone.
In April 2007 a team at the Darmstadt University of Technology in Germany developed a new attack method based on a paper released on the RC4 cypher by Adi Shamir. This new attack, named 'PTW', decreases the number of initialization vectors or IVs needed to decrypt a WEP key and has been included in the aircrack-ng suite since the 0.9 release.
Aircrack-ng is a fork of the original Aircrack project.
Features
The aircrack-ng software suite includes:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| aircrack-ng | Cracks WEP and WPA (Dictionary attack) keys. |
| airdecap-ng | Decrypts WEP or WPA encrypted capture files with known key. |
| airmon-ng | Placing different cards in monitor mode. |
| aireplay-ng | Packet injector (Linux, and Windows [with Commview drivers]). |
| airodump-ng | Packet sniffer: Places air traffic into PCAP or IVS files and shows information about networks. |
| airtun-ng | Virtual tunnel interface creator. |
| airolib-ng | Stores and manages ESSID and password lists; Increases the KPS of WPA attacks |
| packetforge-ng | Create encrypted packets for injection. |
| Tools | Tools to merge and convert. |
| airbase-ng | Incorporates techniques for attacking client, as opposed to Access Points |
| airdecloak-ng | removes WEP cloaking from pcap files |
| airdriver-ng | Tools for managing wireless drivers |
| airolib-ng | stores and manages ESSID and password lists and compute Pairwise Master Keys |
| airserv-ng | allows you to access the wireless card from other computers. |
| buddy-ng | the helper server for easside-ng, run on a remote computer |
| easside-ng | a tool for communicating to an access point, without the WEP key |
| tkiptun-ng | WPA/TKIP attack |
| wesside-ng | automatic tool for recovering wep key. |
