Can a similar, simpler method be used to steal WEP/WPA passwords?
Set up a wireless AP broadcasting an existing SSID. Some existing clients connect to it passing the keyphrase. Verify against the actual AP.
Would this work?
- bnchdrff 16y agoin WEP's case, your AP would receive an auth response encrypted with the keyphrase... you'd have to get quite a few of these to deduce the password, in general. people find it easier to just sniff traffic and deduce the key from all the traffic generated from someone downloading crap. i don't think this is at all realistic with wpa. you could just set up an open network with an equivalent essid, but that's nothing new is it? :)
