This article shares with you what are the contents of WiFi attack methods. Xiaobian thinks it is quite practical, so share it with everyone for reference. Let's follow Xiaobian and have a look.

1. Forged MAC address

In many cases, open network authentication is often achieved through the MAC address of the Internet device together with the Internet credentials. But because the MAC addresses of devices are easy to modify, including smartphones and laptops, this authentication method has no security at all. Hackers can use ARP scanning technology to find other clients that have already connected to the network, so that they can get a complete APR table containing the IP address and MAC address of all connected devices. Hackers can then try to detect whether these devices generate Internet traffic, and if so, it is very easy to obtain WiFi usage rights through network authentication portal authentication.

2. Fake authentication page

This approach is similar to phishing, when a fake authentication page is created to force normal users to log in to the page for authentication, and hackers can then steal their Internet credentials. After all, all traffic on an open wifi network is unencrypted plaintext data, so hackers can easily intercept and tamper with network traffic to achieve whatever they want.

3. Forgot password method

In fact, this way is very simple, is to seize the identity of the WiFi to be verified when forgetting the password can provide reset password service, this service often needs to be connected to the mobile phone number to implement, need to be able to fill in the mobile phone number to send the relevant new password, and even many times need to send a new password through email; in this case will allow connection to the client's TMAP/POP mail server, which means that hackers can easily obtain the password.
