Interesting Projects

I'm keeping the list of tools as online bookmark here -

https://github.com/automayt/FlowPlotter

The list will grow from time to time so that I don't need to spawn another post.

The Regex Goodies

I came across this post and thinking it's very useful information. A lot of teaching points for people who love regular expression.

Argus 3: Debug & Testing

If you are testing argus 3, the best way is always compile argus source with debug mode on -

Argus -
shell>tar xvzf argus-3.0.5.tar.gz
shell>cd argus-3.0.7.5
shell>touch .devel .debug
shell>./configure --prefix=/usr/local/stow/argus-3.0.7.5
shell>sudo make && make install

Argus Clients -
shell>tar xvzf argus-clients-3.0.7.25.tar.gz
shell>cd argus-clients-3.0.7.25
shell>touch .devel .debug
shell>./configure --prefix=/usr/local/stow/argusc-3.0.7.25
shell>sudo make && make install

If argus or its client suite fails to run or behaves wrongly, you can just run them with -D 1-5 depending on the debug information you want. I'm just writing this as note to myself and hopefully it helps others who are using argus as well.

Cheers ;]

Ubuntu Linux: Argus 3 Installation

If you want to test the latest version of argus with all the features enabled on Ubuntu Linux, here's the fastest way, just follow the steps below -

I use stow to manage argus source -

shell>sudo apt-get install stow
shell>mkdir /usr/local/stow

Install mysql server -

shell>sudo apt-get install mysql-server

Install software dependencies for argus clients -

shell>sudo apt-get install flex bison libpcap-dev libmysqlclient-dev libncurses5-dev libreadline-dev libgeoip-dev libpcre3-dev

Now download argus and its client suite -

shell>wget http://qosient.com/argus/dev/argus-3.0.7.5.tar.gz
shell>wget http://qosient.com/argus/dev/argus-clients-3.0.7.23.tar.gz

Install argus -

shell>tar xvzf argus-3.0.7.5.tar.gz
shell>cd argus-3.0.7.5
shell>./configure --prefix=/usr/local/stow/argus-3.0.7.5
shell>sudo make && make install

Install argus client -

shell>tar xvzf argus-clients-3.0.7.23.tar.gz
shell>cd argus-clients-3.0.7.23
shell>./configure --with-libpcre --prefix=/usr/local/stow/argusc-3.0.7.23
shell>sudo make && make install

Now you can use stow to link them to default PATH(/usr/local/sbin and /usr/local/bin) so that you don't need to define full path when running argus -

shell>cd /usr/local/stow
shell>sudo stow argus-3.0.7.5
shell>sudo stow argusc-3.0.7.23

Done and you can start testing argus for fun!

Kali/Backbox Linux: Alfa AWUS036H

After migrating from Backtrack to Kali Linux, I encountered problem with WLAN cracking using Alfa awus036h wireless adapter. The initial probem was

shell>airodump-ng wlan0
ioctl(SIOCSIWMODE) failed: Device or resource busy

ARP linktype is set to 1 (Ethernet) - expected ARPHRD_IEEE80211,
ARPHRD_IEEE80211_FULL or ARPHRD_IEEE80211_PRISM instead.  Make
sure RFMON is enabled: run 'airmon-ng start wlan0 <#>'
Sysfs injection support was not found either.

So it states that I should run airmon-ng -

shell>airmon-ng start wlan0
airmon-ng start wlan0

Found 3 processes that could cause trouble.
If airodump-ng, aireplay-ng or airtun-ng stops working after
a short period of time, you may want to kill (some of) them!
-e
PID    Name
2625    dhclient
2722    NetworkManager
2971    wpa_supplicant


Interface    Chipset        Driver

mon0        Realtek RTL8187L    rtl8187 - [phy0]
wlan0        Realtek RTL8187L    rtl8187 - [phy0]
                (monitor mode enabled on mon0)

We used to be able to run airodump-ng on wlan0 if we are using Backtrack, however it's not the case here, what you need to do is running airodump-ng on mon0 pseudo interface instead -

shell>airodump-ng mon0

Now everything looks good, however there's minor bug that shows the channel -1, to get everything running smoothly without the error, I run the following command instead -

shell>airodump-ng --ignore-negative-one mon0

Now you can perform the wlan cracking routine(aireplay-ng,aircrack-ng to do packet injection and cracking), but remember to run the aircrack-ng suite with argument --ignore-negative-one and everything will be fine.

Cheers (;])

p/s: If you are using another Linux distribution - Backbox, the same applies to it as well.
