After much request we’ve dedicated an episode to every hackers favorite framework, Metasploit. Room362.com’s very own Rob Fuller (aka Mubix) joins us in studio to show us the basics of exploiting and the power of auxiliary modules.
Darren demonstrates cracking Microsoft VPN tunnels using the MS-CHAPv2 authentication protocol using Joshua Wright’s tool ASLEAP and talks about the theory behind the attack.
The Zipit Z2 is an inexpensive wireless handheld instant messaging device by Zipit Wireless. It sports WiFi, a color 320×240 display, backlit keyboard and similar CPU and memory to that of a last-gen smart phone.
It’s also a prime candidate for some hacking. In this segment we’ll unlock the device and install Debian, X, and Pidgin. The Z2 also has potential for emulators, video streaming and more.
Nothing makes us happier than hacking an inexpensive gadget to run just about any Linux app — and that’s exactly what Shannon Morse is doing this week on Hak5. We’re also joined by Jason Appelbaum for a little Google Voice SMS scripting with Java or PHP libraries, and Darren Kitchen has gone googly for Chrome OS. Prepare the popcorn it’s technolust time!
Got a restrictive firewall blocking sites at school or work? Evade ‘em easily with your own private web proxy. Want to securely tunnel any port through an SSH session? Darren’s got just the trick. Wondering how to properly use Asleap to crack MS-CHAPv2 PPTP VPN handshakes & LM Hashes? Interested in trying out neat free enterprise applications but don’t feel like spending hours in a terminal? Try deploying a virtual appliance in minutes, the free and open source way.
Continuing with the VPN Series, Darren discusses the inherent weaknesses in Microsoft’s PPTP authentication protocol, MS-CHAPv2, and demos a Linux tool that exploits these weaknesses.
This time on the show Darren’s having a little man-in-the-middle fun with a demonstration os SSLStrip, an epic tool for removing that pesky encryption from your victims browsing session.
Adding a touch screen to a LCD is pretty straight forward and fairy inexpensive. There are a few different places to get the touch screen kit, we got ours from ebay for around 80 bucks + shipping. Dealextreme.com has a small selection of smaller touch screen kit perfect for netbooks, because they come with a controller made to connect internally instead of external usb. When buying a kit to make sure it comes with the matching controller to avoid any head aches.
This time on the show Jason Appelbaum joins with a touchscreen LCD mod that’s a lot easier than one might think. Then Darren and Matt pit their desktop virtualization platforms, Virtual Box and VMware Workstation, against eachother over a game of Halo.
This week Shannon taps into a hidden Kindle serial port using a inty bitsy ribbon cable, a USB to Serial TTL cable and some jumpers in an attempt to hack root and finds herself upon the bootloader and nearly at a bash prompt. Darren guides you through the installation of VPN servers on Windows XP, Windows Server and Linux so you can keep your traffic secure in an encrypted tunnel while on untrusted networks.
Engineering a mid size office network from the ground up. Matt shares with us tips on switch stacking and more. Palm centro security? Shannon shows us how to bypass SIM lockout. And Darren’s getting his grub2 on without borking his ubuntu box. All that and more on this episode of Hak5.
