ascii-in-the-box Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 What about targeted attacks with the Pineapple? Say that I want to try and “hack” one client in particular (say my neighbour). He has a client connected via WPA2 encrypted WIFI to HOME-NETWORK. But he also has a connect-to-list on his client for his WIFI connections that looks like this: HOME-NETWORK (WPA2) ITCAFE-NETWORK (no encryption) As far as I understand the pineapple will not work when the client asks for the WPA2 encrypted AP connection. But would it be possible for me to place the pineapple say on the outside wall on his house near the targets computer (and also asuming near the router) and first do a deauth for his client (connected to HOME-NETOWRK) and at the same time do a denial of service-attack against the HOME-NETWORK access point to force his client to connect to number two in the list, ITCAFE-NETWORK? Or will the client keep trying to connect to number one in the list? Any other ideas on hot to target a specific client? Thanks in advance. /H.H.

Foxtrot Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 It is not illegal. Gaining access to equipment without the owners permission is illegal. Why would your neighbors allow you to do this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alienbaby Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Why not, setup a machine and wifi router as your neighbour has, and try it out without hacking your neghbour? Edited August 6, 2013 by alienbaby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr-Protocol Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 It is not illegal. Unless you have consent, yes it is illegal. In general, let's avoid discussions of illegal activities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ascii-in-the-box Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 It might be illegal where you live. Anyway I found out how to use the pineapple when WPA2 is involved. Of course I respect the admins of this forum and I will stop the discussion now. Sorry if I talked about the "wrong side" of using the pineapple. I'll continue the discussion underground.
