Re: Testing WEP Key on pcap dump

["Chris McNab" <chris.mcnab () trustmatta com>]

Hi,

WepAttack (wepattack.sourceforge.net) is a great tool for cracking PCAP
files by using a dictionary-attack. Upon compromising the key, you can use a
tool like wep_decrypt, which is part of Tim Newsham's wep_tools.tgz
(www.lava.net/~newsham/wlan/wep_tools.tgz).

I hope that helps, and for anyone that's going to InfoSecurity Europe next
week, you can visit Matta at stand 110 to play me at foosball for a free
signed copy of my book (while our stock of 150 lasts!!) - see
www.infosec.co.uk for registration details, and
www.oreilly.com/catalog/networksa/ for the book.
