Title: wpa 2 cracking
Post by: Cyber.spirit on June 18, 2012, 01:28:44 AM
hi guys,
I have a question about cracking wpa2. I know its really hard to crack wpa2 but its possible so i want to know is it possible to do it without dictionary attack? Because in the middle east countries people dosent use english language so we cant use worldlists in the internet. Can we use some other attacks?

Of course you can use wordlists..just use or create one for the appropriate language.

If the router has WPS enabled, you have another attack vector to look for.

You realize that you don't have to type in the corresponding word to your language one by one, right? Just use a translator and then manually read through it to make minor adjustments that the translator goofed.

The WPS vector can be exploited with reaver

I was going to suggest reaver as cd1zz suggested, as that's currently the easiest way if it's enabed  ;D The Apple Airport Extreme doesn't seem to have this vulnerability or have it enabled by default though.
