Kali Linux Wireless Penetration Testing Beginner???s Guide

Chapter 2. WLAN and Its Inherent Insecurities

 

"The loftier the building, the deeper the foundation must be laid."

 
 --Thomas Kempis

Nothing great can be built on a weak foundation, and in our context, nothing secure can be built on something that is inherently insecure.

WLANs, by design, have certain insecurities that are relatively easy to exploit, for example, by packet spoofing, packet injection, and sniffing (this could even happen from far away). We will explore these flaws in this chapter.

In this chapter, we shall look at the following:

  • Revisiting WLAN frames
  • Different frame types and subtypes
  • Using Wireshark to sniff management, control, and data frames
  • Sniffing data packets for a given wireless network
  • Injecting packets into a given wireless network

Let's get started!

Revisiting WLAN frames

As this book deals with the security aspects of wireless, we will assume that you already have a basic understanding of the protocol and the packet headers. If not, or if it's been some time since you worked on wireless, this would be a good time to revisit this topic again.

Let's now quickly review some basic concepts of WLANs that most of you may already be aware of. In WLANs, communication happens over frames. A frame would have the following header structure:

Revisiting WLAN frames

The Frame Control field itself has a more complex structure:

Revisiting WLAN frames

The Type field defines three types of WLAN frame:

  • Management frames: Management frames are responsible for maintaining communication between access points and wireless clients. Management frames can have the following subtypes:
    • Authentication
    • Deauthentication
    • Association request
    • Association response
    • Reassociation request
    • Reassociation response
    • Disassociation
    • Beacon
    • Probe request
    • Probe response
  • Control frames: Control frames are responsible for ensuring...

Time for action – creating a monitor mode interface

Let's now set our wireless adapter to monitor mode.

Follow these instructions to get started:

  1. Boot Kali with your adapter connected. Once you are within the console, enter iwconfig to confirm that your card has been detected and the driver has been loaded properly:
    Time for action – creating a monitor mode interface
  2. Use the ifconfig wlan0 up command to bring the card up (where wlan0 is your adapter). Verify whether the card is up by running ifconfig wlan0. You should see the word UP in the first line of the output as shown in the following screenshot:
    Time for action – creating a monitor mode interface
  3. To put our card into monitor mode, we will use the airmon-ng utility that is available by default on Kali. First run the airmon-ng command to verify whether it detects the available cards. You should see the wlan0 or wlan1 interface listed in the output:
    Time for action – creating a monitor mode interface
  4. Now enter the airmon-ng start wlan0 command to create a monitor mode interface corresponding to the wlan0 device. This new monitor mode interface will be named wlan0mon. (You can verify...

Time for action – sniffing wireless packets

Follow the following instructions to begin sniffing packets:

  1. Power up the access point Wireless Lab that we configured in Chapter 1, Wireless Lab Setup.
  2. Start Wireshark by typing Wireshark & in the console. Once Wireshark is running, navigate to Capture | Options:
    Time for action – sniffing wireless packets
  3. Select packet capture from the wlan0mon interface by clicking on the Start button at the bottom right of the interface as shown in the previous screenshot. Wireshark will begin the capture, and now you should see packets within the Wireshark window.
    Time for action – sniffing wireless packets
  4. These are wireless packets that your wireless adapter is sniffing off the air. In order to view any packet, select it in the top window and the entire packet will be displayed in the middle window.
    Time for action – sniffing wireless packets

    Click on the triangle in front of IEEE 802.11 Wireless LAN management frame to expand and view additional information.

Look at the different header fields in the packet and correlate them with the WLAN frame types and subtypes you learned...

Time for action – viewing management, control, and data frames

Now we will learn how to apply filters in Wireshark to look at management, control, and data frames.

Please follow these instructions step by step:

  1. To view all the management frames in the packets being captured, enter the filter wlan.fc.type == 0 into the filter window and hit Enter. You can stop the packet capture if you want to prevent the packets from scrolling down too fast.
    Time for action – viewing management, control, and data frames
  2. To view control frames, modify the filter expression to read wlan.fc.type == 1:
    Time for action – viewing management, control, and data frames
  3. To view data frames, modify the filter expression to wlan.fc.type == 2:
    Time for action – viewing management, control, and data frames
  4. To additionally select a subtype, use the wlan.fc.subtype filter. For example, to view all the beacon frames among all management frames, use the following filter:
    (wlan.fc.type == 0) && (wlan.fc.subtype == 8)
    Time for action – viewing management, control, and data frames
  5. Alternatively, you can right-click on any of the header fields in the middle window and then select Apply as Filter | Selected to add it as a filter:
    Time for action – viewing management, control, and data frames
  6. This will automatically add the correct...

Time for action – sniffing data packets for our network

In this exercise, we will learn how to sniff data packets for a given wireless network. For the sake of simplicity, we will look at packets without any encryption.

Follow these instructions to get started:

  1. Switch on the access point we named Wireless Lab. Let it remain configured to use no encryption.
  2. We will first need to find the channel on which the Wireless Lab access point is running. To do this, open a terminal and run airodump-ng --bssid <mac> wlan0mon, where <mac> is the MAC address of our access point. Let the program run, and shortly you should see your access point shown on the screen along with the channel it is running on.
  3. We can see from the preceding screenshot that our access point Wireless Lab is running on channel 11. Note that this may be different for your access point.

    In order to sniff data packets going to and from this access point, we need to lock our wireless card on the same channel, that is...

Time for action – packet injection

We will be using the aireplay-ng tool, which is available in Kali, for this exercise.

Follow these instructions carefully:

  1. In order to do an injection test, first start Wireshark and the filter expression (wlan.bssid == <mac>) && !(wlan.fc.type_subtype == 0x08). This will ensure that we only see non-beacon packets for our lab network.
  2. Now run the aireplay-ng -9 -e Wireless Lab -a <mac> wlan0mon command in a terminal.
  3. Go back to Wireshark and you should see a lot of packets on the screen now. Some of these packets have been sent by aireplay-ng, which we launched, and others are from the access point Wireless Lab in response to the injected packets.

What just happened?

We just successfully injected packets into our test lab network using aireplay-ng. It is important to note that our card injected these arbitrary packets into the network without being actually connected to the access point Wireless Lab.

Have a go hero – installing...

Important note on WLAN sniffing and injection

WLANs typically operate within three different frequency ranges—2.4 GHz, 3.6 GHz, and 4.9/5.0 GHz. Not all Wi-Fi cards support all these ranges and associated bands. For instance, older Alfa cards only support IEEE 802.11b/g. This would mean that these cards cannot operate in 802.11a/n. The key here is to sniff or inject packets in a particular band; your Wi-Fi card will need to support it.

Another interesting aspect of Wi-Fi is that, in each of these bands, there are multiple channels. It is important to note that your Wi-Fi card can only be on one channel at any given moment. It is not possible to tune into multiple channels at the same time. The best analogy I can give you is your car radio. You can tune it to only one of the available channels at any given time. If you want to hear something else, you will have to change the channel. The same principle applies to WLAN sniffing. This brings us to an important conclusion—we cannot...

Revisiting WLAN frames

Wenn man sein Kali schon am Laufen hat und den passenden Wirelessadapter hat (z.B. von Alfa) dann kann es losgehen. Man sollte nicht erwarten, dass man alle Netzwerke in der Nachbarschaft mitlesen kann. Aber man bekommt eine gute Anleitung, was man sehen kann und was andere sehen könn(t)en.
