Great idea Andrew! I put this plug idea together a couple months ago for HOPE and folks have been coming up with all sorts of "creative" applications (my favorite so far is the GSM backdoor). You could certainly plug an ALFA into the USB port and run this as an evil AP. It pulls about 2 watts idle (low enough for battery power!), and the form factor is great for pentests -- it could easily pass for a printer surge box, carbon monoxide detector, etc.
I am working a guruplug-based version that has built-in wireless (not sure about the chipset yet) as well as 2 ethernet, 2 USB, and eSATA. I have a handful on order but the US distributor is a nightmare (4-6 weeks delivery, if they don't lose your order). -- Dave [grep8000] http://www.rocketbearlabs.com/pwn-plug.html ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Andrew Johnson Sent: Wednesday, August 25, 2010 3:20 PM To: PaulDotCom Security Weekly Mailing List Subject: Re: [Pauldotcom] Rogue AP Placement: evil + 1 Have you seen this? http://grep8000.blogspot.com/2010/07/introducing-pwn-plug.html <http://grep8000.blogspot.com/2010/07/introducing-pwn-plug.html>-A On Wed, Aug 25, 2010 at 10:54 AM, Chris Merkel <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Question directed to fellow pen-test / red-teaming ninjas: Have a test coming up, and want to place a rogue AP. I fully expect that a vanilla AP/router will be detected. I'm thinking about dropping a Cisco PIX 501 with the rogue AP sitting on the other side of the NAT gateway, and turning off all remote PIX management as well (if possible, it's been awhile since I admin'ed these.), maybe even turn off ICMP echo replies. My guess is that this isn't going to be detected... My question is: anyone gone to that level of evil to evade detection on a network? If so, could you share any tips or gotchas you encountered along the way? (BTW, you can get a PIX 501 on ebay for under 100 bucks... so well within the reach of an attacker...) -- - Chris Merkel _______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com ________________________________ NOTICE: The information contained in this e-mail and any attachments is intended solely for the recipient(s) named above, and may be confidential and legally privileged.
