Overview of this book

This book starts with the basics of ethical hacking, how to practice hacking safely and legally, and how to install and interact with Kali Linux and the Linux terminal. You will explore network hacking, where you will see how to test the security of wired and wireless networks. You’ll also learn how to crack the password for any Wi-Fi network (whether it uses WEP, WPA, or WPA2) and spy on the connected devices. Moving on, you will discover how to gain access to remote computer systems using client-side and server-side attacks. You will also get the hang of post-exploitation techniques, including remotely controlling and interacting with the systems that you compromised. Towards the end of the book, you will be able to pick up web application hacking techniques. You'll see how to discover, exploit, and prevent a number of website vulnerabilities, such as XSS and SQL injections. The attacks covered are practical techniques that work against real systems and are purely for educational purposes. At the end of each section, you will learn how to detect, prevent, and secure systems from these attacks.

Discovering Vulnerabilities Automatically Using OWASP ZAP

ARP request replay

The AP now accepts packets that we send to it, because it's not going to ignore us now that we've successfully associated ourselves with it by using a fake authentication attack. We are now ready to inject packets into the AP and make the data increase very quickly, in order to decrypt the WEP key.

The first method of packet injection that we're going to talk about is ARP request replay. In this method, we're going to wait for an ARP packet, capture the packet, and inject it into the traffic. When we do this, the AP will be forced to create a new packet with a new IV; we'll capture the new packet, inject it back into the traffic again, and force the AP to create another packet with another IV. We will keep doing this until the amount of data is high enough to crack the WEP key.

Let's do this in Kali Linux. The first thing we&apos...
