AWPS (Automatic Wi-Fi Penetration System) Launcher Module

AWPS is a penetration software for effortlessly penetrating WiFi-enabled devices secured with WPA2. AWPS provides a way for user to attack nearby access point using an android device automatically or manually. It harnesses the robust capabilities of the ESP32 microcontroller to execute a vital operation in Wi-Fi network penetration. By capturing key data elements like the PMKID and MIC, AWPS allows users to conduct offline brute force attacks using hashcat to derive the PSK or the password of the target Wi-Fi device.

The Launcher Module executes attack based on serial inputs, it offers direct user commands or integration with a Command Launch module. The Launcher Module prioritizes simplicity so it requires pairing with an external Command Launch Module for swift and error free execution of attacks. The AWPS Command Launch Module is an Android app, which provides a user-friendly interface for easy interaction with the Launcher Module. It allows user to execute attack at a single press of a button, scan nearby access points, and data management for storing the result of the attack.

Features

PMKID Capture captures the PMKID from the first message of the 4-way hanshake
MIC Capture captures the MIC and the whole EAPOL authentication data from the second message of the 4-way handshake
Reconnaissance scans nearby AP and outputs the SSID, channel and RSSI of the AP.
Deauth injects deauthentication frames within the AP, effectively terminating the connection between the STA and the AP.

How to Hack Wi-Fi using AWPS and GPU

How to hack the Wi-Fi

Note: The android device presented in the story is the Command Launch Module, the Launcher Module is attached to the Command Launch Module. The actor in step 3 does not send an HTTP request to the Rest API server. The actor directly configures the GPU via a software by typing in the commands. Also the Rest API is only available as a local Rest API server in the LAN. Its primary role is to receive hash from the AWPS android app and store it in a database.

Software Components

This module consists of 4 main components, an application entrypoint and one auxiliary component. Here is the brief description of each component:

main The application's entry point initiates the spawning of the command input parser task.
cmd_parser It conducts a scan and parsing process of the user input, subsequently forwarding the parsed instruction code to the armament system.
armament It orchestrates the attack by controlling the Wi-Fi behavior and the data parser.
wifi_ctl An interface for the management of Wi-Fi capabilities such as enabling monitor mode and connecting to the access point.
frame_parser Analyzes incoming data frames received from the Wi-Fi controller to identify PMKID and MIC.
frame_bypasser An auxiliary component to allow the injection of arbitrary frames.

Hardware Components

In this project, three hardware components are employed: an Android device, USB OTG (On The Go), and the ESP32. While the project has been rigorously tested on the ESP32-WROOM-32D variant, it is expected to be compatible with any microcontroller based on the ESP32-WROOM-32 platform.

AWPS Hardware

[1] Android Phone Any android-powered device that can be use to install a Command Launch Module which is the interface that the user will use to control the operations.
[2] USB OTG (On The Go) Enables communication between the Command Launch Module and the Launcher Module. It also delivers power from the Command Launch Module to the Launcher Module.
[3] Micro USB Male to USB Male Establishes connection between the ESP32 device and a USB male port.
[4] ESP32-WROOM-32D This is where the Launcher Module Software is installed and it is use to execute attacks by receiving commands from the Command Launch Module.

How to crack the PMKID or MIC to determine the PSK

Neither the Command Launch Module nor the Launcher Module possesses the requisite capabilities to perform cryptographic cracking operations due to their limited computational power. For comprehensive information on optimizing the process of cracking, kindly refer to the crypto directory

Glossary

AP (Access Point or Authenticator) The wifi device that acts as a central hub or bridge to connect wireless devices to a wired network.
STA (Station or Supplicant) The device or the client device that is connected to the access point
BSSID (Basic Service Set Identifier) The mac address of the access point
SSID (Service Set Identifier) The SSID is a unique name assigned to a wireless network to identify it among other nearby wireless networks.
RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indicator) It is a measurement of the power level or strength of a received wireless signal, typically expressed in decibels (dBm).
PSK (Pre-Shared Key) PSK is a secret passphrase or shared password used to authenticate and secure wireless connections in a Wi-Fi network.
PMKID (Pairwise Master Key Identifier) The PMKID is used in Wi-Fi networks for fast and secure roaming. It allows a client device to quickly transition from one access point to another within the same network without going through the full authentication process again.
MIC (Message Integrity Code) The MIC is a security feature used to ensure the integrity and authenticity of data frames in a Wi-Fi network.
WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) WPA2 is a security protocol used in Wi-Fi networks to secure wireless communication. It was introduced as an improvement over the earlier WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) standard.
