"coWPAtty is designed to audit the pre-shared key (PSK) selection for WPA networks based on the TKIP protocol." - Joshua Wright.
Kali Linux 1.0.3, which includes coWPAtty 4.3.
The latest version of coWPAtty 4.6.
When doing Offsec WiFu 3.0 course, the guide uses coWPAtty to brute-force the handshake. However for this to work, coWPAtty needs nonstrict mode. This is not supported in version 4.3.
If upgraded to the latest version, it would fix this issue. |
