The only part of this I didn’t immediately realize is the wifi pineapples default IP range.
From now on, I’m going to set that as my clients default public IP range to troll anyone who knows.
Public WiFi is just PvP enabled
[x] Client isolation on
This is now a safe zone
thank you lain
also omw to set up my dhcpv4 server to use that network whenever I create a hotspot
Thank you Lain.
Does this matter if the traffic is encrypted, such as an https website instead of http? Like, really how often is internet traffic unencrypted?
Yes, back when I was playing around with my WiFi pineapple there were a wide variety of tricks to break SSL authentication without it being obvious to users. Easiest was to terminate the SSL connection on the pineapple and re-encrypt it with a new SSL cert from there to the users browser, so to the user it looked like everything was secure but in reality their traffic was only encrypted from them to the pineapple, then decrypted, sniffed and re-encrypted to pass along to the target websites with normal SSL.
Man in the middle attacks really do give the attacker tons of options
That kind of ssl interception would normally be quite visible without your client device having the pineapples cert in your devices trust store, or am I wrong?
I’m sure a lot has changed in 10 years ago so this won’t be relevant today, but back when I was last playing with this, sslstrip was the tool I was using on the pineapple to enable SSL mitm attacks - https://github.com/moxie0/sslstrip
I’d imagine there are new techniques to counteract new defenses - this stuff is always cat & mouse
Not often. For web browsing - and the majority of apps - your session is encrypted and certified. Breaking SSL is possible but you’ll know about it due to the lack of certs.
Thank you, Lain
Thank you lain.
Thank you lain
neither is that range pineapple exclusive nor should ppl use public wifi without a proper vpn.
so the meme makes no sense. if you recognize the pineapple default range but yet dont use a vpn…then you re a dumbass.
Thank you lain.
Thank you Lain!
Thank you Lain.
This is why I force my browser to warn me when SSL isn’t available. Makes me at least a little safer when I have to use public wifi
Does that anime still hold up today? I’ve thought of watching it at times.
if you’re looking for something ambient and trippy, i’d say it’s worth the watch
My ass, Lain.
