The document discusses a man-in-the-middle attack over a wireless network. It describes how a hacker can intercept traffic between a victim and the host they are communicating with by placing themselves in the middle. The hacker sets up a rogue wireless access point and uses tools like DNS spoofing and a delegated proxy server to redirect traffic and perform an SSL man-in-the-middle attack by presenting a fake certificate to the victim. A demonstration of this attack will be shown from the victim's perspective in the next video.

2. What is Man-in-the-Middle? It is an attack in which a Hacker places himself in between his potential victim and the host that victim communicates with He is able to see / manipulate all traffic sent between the two Because of the nature of the attack it has to happen at Layer 2

3. Tools of the Trade Atheros chipset based wireless card (preferred) Madwifi-NG drivers for setting card into AP mode Dnsspoof Utility to send spoofed DNS replies Delegated proxy server for performing SSL MITM

4. Attack Premise Victim Hacker Internet default I am the “default” AP DnsSpoof Delegated Hacker is connected to the Internet Hacker sets up a wireless Honeypot HONEYPOT

5. Attack Steps Victim Hacker Internet default DnsSpoof Delegated HONEYPOT DNS Request for mail.yahoo.com 192.168.1.1 192.168.1.2 DNS Reply mail.yahoo.com at 192.168.1.1 https://mail.yahoo.com Sends False Certificate Accepts Certificate Sends Authentication Data Forwards Data to the real Yahoo Server Forwards Reply from Yahoo back to Client

7. Demo We will recreate this entire setup and see the demo in the next video The video will feature the hack from a Victim’s perspective Basics of making the setup have been discussed in this video already Left as an exercise for the user to recreate the setup
