Go for wifi… and leave trasquilado

As we saw in a previous post, the Palm is ideal for practising wardriving or warwalking (search wifi open wireless networks, connect to "loan"). However, although most open networks (ie, that do not require user name and password) are so well because they have been left intentionally, or because whoever has installed ignores the most basic respect to security in wifi networks, there are also times when the cause is another, and the person behind this network knows what it does. And might actually knows what he does.

This is true of this wasp (not to call him otherwise), which has decided to laughing a bit of its neighbours, who are using its wireless network to surf the Internet. The process is simple but effective:

  • First divides its network into two ", configuring the DHCP server for that of their teams (known as MAC address) of an IP" good part "because all other one of the" bad side ".

/ etc / dhcpd.conf

ddns-updates off; ddns-update-style interim; authoritative; shared-network local subnet *.*.*.* netmask 255.255.255.0 ((range *.*.*.* *.*.*.*; option routers *.*.*.*;-Option subnet mask 255.255.255.0; option domain-name "XXXXX"; option domain-name-servers *.*.*.*; deny unknown-clients; host trusted1 (hardware ethernet *: *:*:*:*:*; Fixed-address *.*.*.*;)) subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 (range 192.168.0.2 192.168.0.10; option routers 192.168.0.1; option subnet mask - 255.255.255.0; option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.1; allow unknown-clients;))

  • Once this is done, there are many ways to have fun. The first is through Iptables (a module packet filtering, including in the Linux kernel), making all traffic coming / refer to a team of "bad network" always be redirected to another machine that we decide. The result is that when our neighbours surf the Internet, go to the page you will always end up in being in the right direction we have chosen. I leave it to readers to think about what page will be more fun to do something like that. So we could make one ourselves, for example with a warning from the CIA, informing them that they will be investigated by the road "dangerous".

/ sbin / iptables-A PREROUTING-s-p tcp 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0-j DNAT - to-destination 64.111.96.38

  • But this man has it happened another way to "have fun", even more original. He has installed Squid on your computer, a web proxy that is used in many networks as an intermediary between users and the Internet, and has combined with mogrify, a script of the package of image processing ImageMagik, which permits from the command line, perform operations on images, such as resize, rotate, etc.. In fact, he has used vertically to give back all the images that are downloaded from the Internet. Then the trick before, has redirected the navigation of its neighbours towards this proxy. The process is transparent to those who browse, and the result is extremely curious:

Script to "retouch" images

#! / usr / bin / perl $ | = 1; $ count = 0; pid = $ $ $; while (<>) (chomp $ _; if ($ _ = ~ / (.* \. jpg) / i ) ($ Url = $ 1; system ( "/ usr / bin / wget", "-q", "-O", "/ space / WebPages / images / $-$ count.jpg pid", "$ url") ; System ( "/ usr / bin / mogrify", "-flip", "/ space / WebPages / images / pid $-$ count.jpg"); print "http://127.0.0.1/images/ $ pid - $ count.jpg \ n ";) elsif ($ _ = ~ / (.* \. gif) / i) ($ url = $ 1; system (" / usr / bin / wget ","-q "," -- Or "," / space / WebPages / images / $-$ count.gif pid "," $ url "); system (" / usr / bin / mogrify ","-flip "," / space / WebPages / images / $-$ pid count.gif "); print" pid http://127.0.0.1/images/ $-$ count.gif \ n ";) else (print" $ _ \ n ";) $ count ;)

  • By changing the parameters of mogrify, also can make all the images that their neighbors unloaded from the Internet are feathered, to achieve what he calls the Internet blurred.

In short, when you get to use the wireless network's neighbor, taking into account not only the veis you, but he also he sees you, and may end up being the target of his jokes. So do not desespoir focus on the monitor image, because you can see everything that is blurred by other cause ...
