Background

For an excellent explaination, see the Airolib-ng manual.

Tools

  • pyrit blog Reference manual
    • Like coWPatty and Airolib-ng
    • Pre-compute PMK keys
    • Internal SQLite3 database over precomputed ESSID and PMK combinations
    • Can export to *.cow (coWPAtty) and *.db (Airolib-ng)
    • GPGPU acceleration
  • coWPAtty Main page coWPAtty project page Readme
    • Like Pyrite and Airolib-ng
    • WPA-PSK attack on specific ESSID and captured 4-way handshake dump
    • Passthrough from Pyrite possible (GPGPU acceleration)
    • Pre-computed PMK tables supported
    • genpmk:
      • Generate "Pairwise Master Key" table for a specific ESSID, PMK tables
      • Table-file name usually ends with *.cow
  • Airolib-nb
    • Like coWPatty and Pyrit
    • Precompute TMK keys and attack WPA/WPA2 handshake captures
    • Internal SQLite3 database
    • Can export and import coWPAtty files
