H4Rpy : Automated WPA/WPA2 PSK Attack Tool

H4Rpy is an automated WPA/WPA2 PSK attack tool, wrapper of aircrack-ng framework. H4Rpy provides clean interface for automated cracking of WPA/WPA2 PSK networks.

It enables monitor mode on selected wireless interface, scans the wireless space for access points, tries to capture WPA/WPA2 4-way handshake for the acess point, and starts a dictionary attack on the handshake.

It is also possible to send disassociate packets to clients associated with access point.

Installation

Installation consists of cloning the repo, running a script that will install dependencies (aircrack-ng framework and Terminator are required in order to run h4rpy), and making h4rpy executable. Script only works with apt package manager (Debian based distributions).

# git clone https://github.com/MS-WEB-BN/h4rpy/
# cd h4rpy
# sudo bash config.sh
# sudo chmod +x h4rpy

Usage

  • To run h4rpy:

# sudo ./h4rpy

  • Top-left: Enabling monitor mode, scanning for access points (packet capturing of raw 802.11 frames);
  • Top-right: Packet capturing on selected wireless network, capturing the WPA/WPA2 4-way handshake;
  • Bottom-left: Sends disassocate packets to clients which are currently associated with a selected access point;
  • Bottom-right: Dictionary attack on the captured WPA/WPA2 4-way handshake.
