Rogue DHCP Server Detection

Following up with last week’s discussion on Rogue DHCP Servers I found it fitting to mention Tim Ashley’s Rogue DHCP Server Detector as found on the Hak5 forums.

Free Application Sandbox Challenge

In an effort to discover whether free application sandboxing solutions from Comodo and Sandboxie can save a (L)user from themselves, Darren takes three Internet Explorer 6 Virtual Machines around the Internets famous red light district in a set of challenges put forth by the fine folks at irc.hak5.org.

The Top “Ultra” Windows Warez

Perplexed by software titles claiming to be the most elite thing since ascii art Shannon set off to round up the top “Ultra” software for Windows and see there is any merit fo their titles. The round up includes:

While Matt’s away on business Eighty of Dual Core fills in with an awesome segment on extracting Windows executables from packet captures using tcpxtract.

Darren’s features some of the Gmail Badges from our recent Code Challenge.

Plus we’ve got a walk-through on winning the Easter Egg Hunt. Only *four* of over 300 submissions completed the puzzle. We’ve learned a bunch of lessons from this first hunt and will be sure to put together an even more in-depth hunt next time.

Twilight Hack

Wii Homebrew

You need a few things:

wii
wii mote controller
computer
internet access
small sd card formatted as FAT.
Zelda Twilight Princess for Wii

The Wii Brew Wiki
Homebrew Channel

How to install the Wii Homebrew Channel on your Wii using the Twilight Hack.

Download the Twilight Hack. There are two versions, one for Wii system 3.3, and one for 3.4. I haven’t updated mine, so I’m still on 3.3.

Download the Homebrew Channel zip file.

Also, if you want, go ahead and download some apps from the HackMii website. I suggest the Homebrew Browser so you dont have to copy apps to the SD card every time you wanna download something new.

You’ll need a small SD card 2 gig or smaller. Make sure to format your SD card as FAT. Do to this, right click on the SD card, and choose format. Simple!

Put the SD card in your Wii, then turn it on. Go to the Wii Options–>Data management–>Save Data–>Wii section of the menu. Find your Zelda: Twilight Princess saved file, and copy it. If you havent played it yet, you might not have a saved file, so go ahead and play a bit. Put your SD card in your computer and copy the “Private” folder from the card to your comp, just in case you may need it in the future.

Move the homebrew executable that you extract from the zip file to your SD card root directory and save it as boot.dol or boot.elf.

Also, save the Twilight Hack Private folder from the extracted zip file to your SD card.

Now, check out your Twilight Princess game CD. It should have some hard to read serial numbers inscribed on the inner circle. Match this serial with the corresponding “Save slot”.

Region	Inner circle text	File	Save slot
Europe/Australia	RVL-RZDP-0A-0 JPN	/private/wii/title/rzdp/data.bin	Twilight Hack
Asia (JPN)	RVL-RZDJ-0A-0 JPN	/private/wii/title/rzdj/data.bin	Twilight Hack
America (USA)
America (USA)
America (USA)

Inside the private–>wii–>title folder are 3 folders with letters corresponding to the serials. Delete the two that don’t match your cd.

Put your SD card back in the Wii. Go to Wii Options–>Data management–>Save Data–>Wii and erase the Zelda save now. Open the SD card menu and choose Twilight Hack. Copy to the Wii.

Stick your game CD in your Wii and boot up Zelda! Choose the save slot that corresponds with your serial. Mine was TwilightHack0. Go ahead and skip the intro, it doesn’t hurt the hack. Once you see Link as a playable character, either walk backwards or talk to the guy in front of you. This will start up the hack install process, so just choose “Agree” to everything.

You’re done! Now you can play on the homebrew channel. Yay!

Get the homebrew browser so you can download apps straight from the channel instead of shuffling your SD card around.

To do that, simply stick the sd in your computer and create a folder called apps. Copy the homebrew browser folder and its contents over to the sd and back it goes to your wii!

If you have some cool homebrew for the Wii, tell me about it or ask me any questions at Snubs@hak5.org.

Don’t forget to submit your questions@hak5.org and feedback@hak5.org and thanks for your contributions.

Episode 505 – Introducing Interceptor: The network tap and rogue wireless access point

Darren — Wed, 18 Mar 2009 18:13:15 +0000

The perfect primate for pen testers is none other than network monkey. Introducing Robin Wood’s Interceptor — on this episode we hack the Fon+ and turn it into a network tap and rogue wireless access point.

Our friend digininja is at it again. On this episode we feature Robin Wood’s latest hack based on none other than the Fon+ wireless router.

Interceptor is a wireless wired network tap. Simply put you place it in line on an ethernet cable, then connect to it via a special wireless access point. Once connected and running the Interceptor scripts you’ll be able to sniff all of the traffic passing across the wire.

Interceptor doesn’t affect TTL and adds minimal latency to packets. It doesn’t associate to the target network so discovering an active Interceptor on your LAN isn’t trivial.

This tool is perfect for pen testers. The device inexpensive, based on the Fon+ router and using open source software. It is small enough to fit behind a network wall plate, inside a plush monkey, or even inside a network switch or other gear.

In this episode we demonstrate the usage, illustrate the installation and speak with the developer Robin Wood.

You can download the software and play with it yourself from digininja.org/interceptor and find support and discussion at the Hak5 Interceptor Forum.

Thanks for watching, subscribing, and most of all supporting the show. On a related note custom commissioned WiFi Pineapples running Jasager are now available.

We return next week with a regular format show. Don’t forget to submit your questions@hak5.org and feedback@hak5.org and trust your technolust!

Matt Lestock turns any windows application into a service using instsrv and srvany and demonstrates how we use this technique, coupled with Panel Daemon to delegate game server administration at the Hak5 playground.

Chris Gerling shows us some packet filtering techniques using the network analyzer Wireshark. He covers capture filters, display filters, colors and statistics. Read more on packet sniffing on his blog at ChrisGerling.com

Darren Kitchen talks about parallel computing. He touches on grid computing and massively parallel processors though he mainly focuses on clustering. Darren demonstrates simple windows password cracking techniques using an openMosix based image and discusses the theory behind setup. Darren has a lot of further reading for you to check out on his blog and would like to hear your feedback about building the Hak5 beowulf cluster!

And on a production note: We’ve switched over from a standard-def composite based video mixing solution to a high-def HDMI based system. Unfortunately until we get a Mac Pro and switch to Final Cut Pro for editing we’re unable to release a 720p version of Hak5. But we’re well on our way to bringing you guys truly high def technolust thanks to everyone who has continued to support this cause. Thanks!

Chris Gerling dives into the structure of IP and TCP headers in part two of his three part series on packet sniffing. He covers everything from source ports to checksums and everything inbetween offering insight into TCP packets in plain English. Then in part three he covers basic Wireshark usage and advanced techniques. Read more on packet sniffing on his blog at ChrisGerling.com

Shannon Morse shares with us DosBox, the free and open source IBM PC emulator that allows you to break out those old floppies and play your DOS games once again. While we wait for DNF, anyone for a Duke Nukem 3D deathmatch?

Christine Bourquin demos Alice, an innovative 3D programming language that makes it easy to teach programming using a simple drag-and-drop interface. Perfect for the next generation of computer scientists.

Darren Kitchen brings us his review of Day-Con with photos courtesy of the security twits. He also talks about Jasager batteries both big and small.

And on a production note: We’ve switched over from a standard-def composite based video mixing solution to a high-def HDMI based system. We’re not ready to release the full 720p quite yet as we’re ironing out (read: developing on the fly) the post production process but in the mean time we’ve got damn good looking 480p and we’re looking for your feedback. Thanks a million to everyone who has donated and helped make this happen!
