Pyrit setup
Pyrit is a tool used to pre-compute all possible SSID:PASSWORD combinations to generate a list of PMK tokens.
Pre-requisite
Pyrit version 0.3.0 and up depend on Scapy2 (package inspection) and SQLAlchemy 0.5.6 (database interface).
Scapy: On a Debian bases distribution, get the package using aptitude. Backtrack 4 final include the Scapy2.
aptitude update aptitude install python-scapy scapy2
SQLAlchemy: As of writing, Backtrack 4 pwnsource, does only include version 0.4.5. Version 0.5.6 or later is required for pyrit 0.3.0.
Get the latest stable release, extract, build and install.
wget http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/sqlalchemy/sqlalchemy/0.5.8/SQLAlchemy-0.5.8.tar.gz tar zxvf SQLAlchemy-0.5.8.tar.gz cd SQLAlchemy-0.5.8 sudo python easy_install SQLAlchemy
Install
Download the latest pyrit from pyrit.googlecode.com.
wget http://pyrit.googlecode.com/files/pyrit-0.3.0.tar.gz
Extract, build and install the package.
tar zxvf pyrit-0.3.0.tar.gz cd pyrit-0.3.0 python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install
Test to verify the core modules work.
pyrit eval pyrit list_cores pyrit -e linksys create_essid
Now, to install the GPU accelerated modules.
Not tested for now
Nvidia CUDA: Make sure the Nvidia graphics drivers work with the graphics card. Next install the CUDA-Toolkit to get the required Nvidia compiler.
To install the pyrit CUDA module.
wget http://pyrit.googlecode.com/files/cpyrit-cuda-0.3.0.tar.gz tar zxvf cpyrit-cuda-0.3.0 python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install
Test to verify the new module is ready.
pyrit list_cores
OpenCL (Nvidia/AMD/Cell): Install the Nvidia OpenCL SDK or the ATI Stream SDK. Check the included instructions.
And for the pyrit OpenCL module.
wget http://pyrit.googlecode.com/files/cpyrit-opencl-0.3.0.tar.gz tar zxvf cpyrit-opencl-0.3.0 python setup.py build sudo python setup.py install
Test to verify the new module is ready.
