* Package name : cowpatty * URL : https://github.com/joswr1ght/cowpatty * License : BSD-3-clause Programming Lang: C Description : Implementation of an offline dictionary attack against WPA/WPA2 networks using PSK-based authentication (e.g. WPA-Personal). Many enterprise networks deploy PSK-based authentication mechanisms for WPA/WPA2 since it is much easier than establishing the necessary RADIUS, supplicant and certificate authority architecture needed for WPA-Enterprise authentication. Cowpatty can implement an accelerated attack if a precomputed PMK file is available for the SSID that is being assessed. I intend to maintain this package under the pkg-security team. -- Samuel Henrique <samueloph>
