WinFiHack - A Windows Wifi Brute Forcing Utility Which Is An Extremely Old Method But Still Works Without The Requirement Of External Dependencies


WinFiHack is a recreational attempt by me to rewrite my previous project Brute-Hacking-Framework's main wifi hacking script that uses netsh and native Windows scripts to create a wifi bruteforcer. This is in no way a fast script nor a superior way of doing the same hack but it needs no external libraries and just Python and python scripts.


Installation

The packages are minimal or nearly none 😅. The package install command is:

pip install rich pyfiglet

Thats it.


Features

So listing the features:

  • Overall Features:
  • We can use custom interfaces or non-default interfaces to run the attack.
  • Well-defined way of using netsh and listing and utilizing targets.
  • Upgradeability
  • Code-Wise Features:
  • Interactive menu-driven system with rich.
  • versatility in using interface, targets, and password files.

How it works

So this is how the bruteforcer works:

  • Provide Interface:

  • The user is required to provide the network interface for the tool to use.

  • By default, the interface is set to Wi-Fi.

  • Search and Set Target:

  • The user must search for and select the target network.

  • During this process, the tool performs the following sub-steps:

    • Disconnects all active network connections for the selected interface.
    • Searches for all available networks within range.
  • Input Password File:

  • The user inputs the path to the password file.

  • The default path for the password file is ./wordlist/default.txt.

  • Run the Attack:

  • With the target set and the password file ready, the tool is now prepared to initiate the attack.

  • Attack Procedure:

  • The attack involves iterating through each password in the provided file.
  • For each password, the following steps are taken:
    • A custom XML configuration for the connection attempt is generated and stored.
    • The tool attempts to connect to the target network using the generated XML and the current password.
    • To verify the success of the connection attempt, the tool performs a "1 packet ping" to Google.
    • If the ping is unsuccessful, the connection attempt is considered failed, and the tool proceeds to the next password in the list.
    • This loop continues until a successful ping response is received, indicating a successful connection attempt.

How to run this

After installing all the packages just run python main.py rest is history 👍 make sure you run this on Windows cause this won't work on any other OS. The interface looks like this:
