no just hasnt been updated to use the new version of aircrack-ng. Recommend you use this modified version also includes pixie dust attack https://github.com/aanarchyy/wifite-mod-pixiewps
hmm... i am not sure how that version differs...
Well it looks like your issues is fixed since the author just update aircrack and the modified wifite includes the pixie dust attack to crack wps in just a few minutes.
Have you tried the latest version of Wifite? It seems to work for the new aircrack-ng suite (airmon-ng
). If you're still seeing issues, please run iwconfig
and airmon-ng
(no arguments) and paste the output.
i think i identified the problem here, and it is freaking network manager... :/ i believe it was reseting the mode of the interfaces after wifite!
maybe checking with airmon-ng if there is hostile software running would be a good idea to workaround this problem...
Use sudo airmon-ng check wlan0
instead wlan0 use any other interface you want and try kill all applications in that output...
i know, this is exactly what i was saying: it would be a good idea for wifite to do that automatically.
Hi there anarcat, could you explain what did you do? I'm stuked there, and as a neophyte in this linux world I cannot fix it. Thanks
@losttale i turned off network manager, by right-clicking on the network icon in my task bar and disabling the wifi. you could also do:
sudo service network-manager stop
hahahaha, that worked!!! The more simple the more effective! Thanks @anarcat!
I have the same probleme than the OP, maybe a more precise error message in the software could be useful.
I also have the same problem on Linux Mint, I tryid to stop network manager and it did not help. I have been installing everything updated and new, but still did not help.
I managed to get around the problem by manually setting my wireless card to monitor mode first and then launching wifite:
ifconfig wlan1 down iwconfig wlan1 mode monitor ifconfig wlan1 up wifite
Hope this helps!
hi! i am trying to use this software but i get stuck on:
select number of device to put into monitor mode
Choosing a device just duplicates it!
weird... am i doing something wrong?
