Fluxion – Remake Of Linset By VK496 With Less Bugs & Enhanced Functionality

Fluxion is the future of MITM WPA attacks. Fluxion is a security auditing and social-engineering research tool. It is a remake of linset by vk496 with (hopefully) less bugs and more functionality. The script attempts to retrieve the WPA/WPA2 key from a target access point by means of a social engineering (phishing) attack. It’s compatible with the latest release of Kali (rolling). Fluxion’s attacks’ setup is mostly manual, but experimental auto-mode handles some of the attacks’ setup parameters. Read the FAQ before requesting issues.

Fluxion Installation

Download the latest revision

git clone --recursive git@github.com:FluxionNetwork/fluxion.git 

Switch to tool’s directory

cd fluxion 

Run fluxion (missing dependencies will be auto-installed)

./fluxion.sh

Fluxion is also available in arch

cd bin/arch
makepkg

or using the blackarch repo

pacman -S fluxion

How it works

  • Scan for a target wireless network.
  • Launch the Handshake Snooper attack.
  • Capture a handshake (necessary for password verification).
  • Launch Captive Portal attack.
  • Spawns a rogue (fake) AP, imitating the original access point.
  • Spawns a DNS server, redirecting all requests to the attacker’s host running the captive portal.
  • Spawns a web server, serving the captive portal which prompts users for their WPA/WPA2 key.
  • Spawns a jammer, deauthenticating all clients from original AP and lureing them to the rogue AP.
  • All authentication attempts at the captive portal are checked against the handshake file captured earlier.
  • The attack will automatically terminate once a correct key has been submitted.
  • The key will be logged and clients will be allowed to reconnect to the target access point.
