"Station" - refers to a wireless client on the BSS.Nonce - random number used for initiating an encrypted communication.ESSID or Extended Service Set Identifier, Network name, e.g.BSSID or Basic Service Set Identifier, MAC address of the AP radio.MAC Address - 6 byte, unique, network hardware address, e.g.It is often used as "MAC" for "Message Authentication Code" but since we already use MAC in computer communications to mean the hardware address of a radio, we use MIC. Message Integrity Code, or MIC - a checksum that is used to authenticate an encrypted message.Pairwise Master Key (PMK) - a string derived using the EAP framework which is used in the process of creating the PTK.EAP, or Extensible authentication Protocol - the actual protocol for transporting WPA2 encrypted data (not to be confused with other protocols, such as 802.11).

#ASSEMBLE WPA2 HASH CODE#
To use the code that I write, you will need a few Perl modules:

I will be using Wireshark for a few examples and I also have prepared my own 4-way+1 beacon packet capture file that you can download here. RequirementsA packet capture file containing a WPA2 4-way handshake, and a single beacon frame from the AP - This is for simply viewing the values using a binary to hex tool for network packets, such as Wireshark while coding your own tool with this article. How could we possibly begin to write an application to crack wpa2 if we have no idea how the protocol/authentication methods work? Also, I would like to note that I do realize that this is incredibly absurd to use the system administration tool Perl to do this, since it is quite slow in comparison to C programming for these heavy lifting tasks (we will see why later), but it is still a good exercise to get familiar with the actual WPA2 cracking process for those already familiar with Perl. I feel this is a very necessary step for this advanced subject. IntroductionBefore we begin, let's take a look at how the process of WPA2 encryption works.
