Wireless Best Practices
Enable WEP - Wired equivalent privacy

Key rotation when equipment supports it
Disable broadcast of ESSID
Block null ESSID connection
Restrict access by MAC address
Use VPN technology
Use strong mutual authentication

Practical Attacks
WEP – Can be cracked passively
Masked ESSID – Can be passively observed
in management frames during association
Block null ESSID connects – Same problem
Install VPN – Weakly authenticated VPN is
susceptible to active attack (MITM)
Strong mutual authentication - ?

Black Hat 2002, Las Vegas NV
The Bottom Layers
Manipulating the bottom 2 layers of the
OSI

Data Link (Layer 2)
 Media Access Control (MAC) – Access to medium
 Logical Link Control (LLC) – Frame sync, flow
control

Physical (Layer 1)
 Radio bit stream

Is the ESSID a shared secret?
If I mask the ESSID from the AP
beacons then unauthorized users will
not be able to associate with my AP?
Discover Masked ESSID


7/31/2002
Send a deauthenticate frame to the
broadcast address.
Obtain ESSID contained in client probe
request or AP probe response.

MITM Attack


Taking over connections at layer 1 and 2
Insert attack machine between victim and
access point
Management frames

Deauthenticate victim from real AP
 Send deauthenticate frames to the victim using
the access point’s MAC address as the source
7/31/2002
Black Hat 2002, Las Vegas NV
Attack Scenarios – Monkey-Jack


Victim’s 802.11 card scans channels to search
for new AP
Victim’s 802.11 card associates with fake AP
on the attack machine
 Fake AP is on a different channel than the real one
 Attack machine’s fake AP is duplicating MAC
address and ESSID of real AP
7/31/2002
Black Hat 2002, Las Vegas NV
Attack Scenarios – Monkey-Jack


Dangers of wireless MITM



Wireless networks are more vulnerable to
MITM attacks than wired networks.
Many security solutions are implemented with
an assumption of a secure layer 1 and 2
Many VPN solutions are implemented with
inadequate authentication for protection
against wireless MITM attacks.

Attack Scenarios – Kracker-Jack
WAVEsec





securing wireless networks
Uses FreeS/WAN IPSEC implementation
Will thwart passive eavesdropping of
wireless network communications.

Attack Scenarios – Kracker-Jack
Authenticating with WAVEsec gateway




7/31/2002
Client sends modified DHCP request with
client’s public key
WAVEsec gateway inserts client’s public
key into DNS record
Client obtains WAVEsec gateway’s public
key by requesting it from the DNS server
IPSEC tunnel setup
Black Hat 2002, Las Vegas NV
Attack Scenarios – Kracker-Jack
Using Kracker-Jack



KJ inserts to 802.11 layer (like monkey-jack)
KJ, using a DNS request, gets victims public
key from DNS server
KJ, using the victims MAC address sends DHCP
request with its own key to replace the victim’s
key in the DNS server
7/31/2002
Black Hat 2002, Las Vegas NV
Attack Scenarios – Kracker-Jack





KJ initiates ISAKMP main mode SA with the
WAVEsec server
KJ initiates ISAKMP main mode SA with victim
Victim gets new server key by DNS request
serviced by KJ
Two separate IPSEC tunnels are now setup
All traffic passes through KJ unencrypted
