bssid analyzer

When I connect to my home router it gives an under attack warning. Can anyone explain why??? Has my home network been compromised????

Thanks in advance
[Android Apps and Games] SecUpwN:
Which BSSID analysis type did you set? Use DEEP, not extreme. Also, grant ROOT access!
[Android Apps and Games] gurkedev:
Added FAQ to the OP. Working on new features like black/white lists.
[Android Apps and Games] RCALL:
Battery use minimal when using WiFi Protector.

I did not notice any appreciable battery use while running WiFi Protector, as a full-time app in the week I used to test for power consumption. I used Android Tuner to monitor battery usage and WiFi Protector came in using > .01% of total. I have had it trigger twice in the first week of use. I then prohibited that MAC address access to the network and have not had an issue since. So whatever the battery usage, it is well worth it, in my opinion.
[Android Apps and Games] Doctor. Who:
When I am under attack and I reboot my device or disconnect to Wifi network and reconnect Wifi Protector doesn't say me that I am under attacks and I don't have Wifi why ?
[Android Apps and Games] SecUpwN:
Awesome, can't wait! Maybe you should open-source it on GitHub? Other could help you.

Because WIFI Protector kills your WIFI connection. Set BSSID analysis level "Deep" in the settings, reboot, try again.
[Android Apps and Games] Doctor. Who:
I dit it but now it say that I am permanently under attack and when I want to use Countermeasures it says "Countermeasures error : Trusted gateway unknown
[Android Apps and Games] SecUpwN:
Good one. Did you grant ROOT?
[Android Apps and Games] Doctor. Who:
Yes I grant root access
[Android Apps and Games] SecUpwN:
Reset the App data, use analysis mode "Deep" and retry please.
[Android Apps and Games] Doctor. Who:
Same result
[Android Apps and Games] gurkedev:
Does this happen even with BSSID analysis switched off? Here are some words about the BSSID stuff, maybe this helps. If not, could you give us a screenshot of the expert perspective?
[Android Apps and Games] Doctor. Who:
No only when when I activate BSSID analysis it say that I am permanently under attack and I can't use Countermeasures

If you want I can record my screen when I activate it and show it to you ?
[Android Apps and Games] gurkedev:
If you get alerts with BSSID analysis enabled, go to Expert Perspective and compare the gateway MAC with the BSSID. You will probalby notice that the gateway MAC is completely different to the BSSID. This could be a network already under attack but it's more likely that you are connected to a virtualized wireless LAN. The concept of virtualization in wireless LANs is similar to wired networks. Relevant for you, as a Wifi Protector user, is that each participant in the network is assigned a dedicated virtual port and unique BSSID. Maybe you're lucky because the Access Point keeps the vendor ID (first 3 octets of the MAC) and changes only the last 3 octets, so you could keep BSSID analysis enabled and set the detection level to Light. But I'm afraid in most cases you will find yourself with 6 different octets. In such case you cannot use BSSID analysis.

Wifi Protector wont help you if attacker uses netcut software

Hi friends,

I am using Wifi protector on my Moto G 2014 but still the application like netcut can do ARP attack so better if anyone find some strong ARP anti spoofing app for android pls share it until for just name shake you can use wifi protector.
[Android Apps and Games] AndroTech:
Can you share any netcut app for android based on your experience?
[Android Apps and Games] glynnd:
I installed wifi protector but from the get go I keep getting under attack warnings when connected to my home wifi. Can anyone explain why this is happening. Here's a screenshot of it

The MAC ending 80 is for physical connections (only thing connected via ethernet. Is my WD my cloud) of my BT hub and 82 is the wireless connections of the hub
[Android Apps and Games] glynnd:
Here's the screenshot of the warning
[Android Apps and Games] dhilipkeyan:
Acutally netcut is the application for windows only. By using this you can do ARP spoofing and disconnect you from the network. i have installed netcut in my windows laptop and i have installed wifi protector on my mobile (moto g 2014) but still i am getting disconnected by netcut software. wifi protector is not saving me. Instead i have installed droid sheep guard on my mobile. This is protecting me from ARP Spoofing by using netcut.

Can you share any netcut app for android based on your experience?

Can't access the menu (settings) on Lollipop.

Can you please update the app for Lollipop users?

I have an LG G2 F320 (The korean version), and updatet to lollipop a month ago (Also got root).

When I installed the apk today, I saw that couldn't access the settings.

Installed the same apk on my brother's Galaxy S4 (Kit Kat), and I could access the menu (settings).

I think it has to do with the changes the Lollipop made for accesing the "option" button.

Is there a way to access the options being on lollipop?

Guys i have been using wifikill for a month... It works like charm.... But there is one problem.... I would like to explain.... I have a dlink router and a tplink wifi range extender(note pwd and SSID Is kept same in setup) ... Usually i connect to wifi using wifi range extender... Now whenever i use wifi kill... It cuts off the connections of the devices which i select to kill wifi... I dont even touch the ip or mac associated with the range extender.....how ever it also cuts off the connection of range extender... Thus resulting in cutting off my wifi connection.... Is there any way to prevent wifikill to cut offf the connection of that particular device?? Any help will be appreciated regarding why this problem occurs & whats the solution for it

Hi,

I don't understand the two downloads. It says that the most recent is 1.4.5, but the two files are 46 & 48. What do those numbers mean? It doesn't say.

Also, it says it can be gotten in the Google Play Store. You're probably already aware, but it's not available there any more.

Thank You.

Hi,

Please forgive my ignorance, but I would like to humbly request the answer to just one question, please.

I can see (OP) v1.4.5 mentioned as being released, but the two downloads are for "46" & "48", so I am a bit confused.

Which one should I download? Logic would say "48", but maybe that's a Beta or something?

I just didn't understand how the njmbers line up to what versions those two actually are, so if someone could tell me which one to grab (interested in the newest stable release) I'd appreciate it!

Thank You!!!

I tested this app today. Installed Wifi Protector, Hackuna and ARP Guard on my phone. Then i tred to hack from another phone using zAnti, cSploit and Netcut. Wifi Protector was the only app that detected all attempts of hacking from all three apps. The other 2 apps did not prevent or even detected anything was happening.

Great to see that this app still works. Keep In mind that I'm on Nougat.

[Android Apps and Games] ell3:
I uninstalled ver.1, installed new version, (had to reboot because it kept freezing or crashing) and:

If I dont check the "analyze 802.11 BSSID" it works fine and detect the attack.

But when I check it, I'm not alerted when I get the attack. Might it be something due to the fact that (in Expert) I get:

Gateway MAC: Auth required or P-t-P (should be same as mac below, I think)

802.11 BSSID : 00.16.01.XX.XX.XX

And this is also suspicious

Wifi/Network state: DISCONNECTED/CONNECTED

but I'm connected and I can browse the net.

Then I disconnect from wifi (by turning off in phone settings) and rejoin... The app crashes and restarts, but it's not reporting attacks correctly.

Any other had the same issue ? Maybe it's a problem with my network setup but I can actually make arp spoofing and let it pass unrecognized...

Many thanks to OP for putting his effort on this project, it's really useful !!!!!!!!

Keep it real !!!!
[Android Apps and Games] avgjoemomma:
Having some FC issues with this version? When the app tries to start upon a connection change.

Edit : looks like it FCs when WiFi is disabled. I have Juicedefender set up to automatically enable and disable WiFi and Data. It's not a big deal but the app will FC 3 or 4 times in a row before giving up.
[Android Apps and Games] gurkedev:
Should be but I wouldn't rely on that. Although 802.11 defines that the BSSID ist the MAC address of the station in infrastucture mode I've seen buggy gateways in the wild with an incorrect BSSID (last byte wrong for example).

Edit: Not only buggy APs but also WLAN virtualization.

Interesting. Seems that the app didn't get the supplicant state change broadcast. Did you switch the network while the phone was in deep sleep?

Could you PM me the stack trace please?
[Android Apps and Games] gurkedev:
Could you PM me the stack trace please?
[Android Apps and Games] ell3:
As for the buggy GW maybe, actually mine is a netbook with a Nintendo modified key to act as soft-ap. Today I tested and I could see that mac and bssid are correct (no more "Auth required")

Deep sleep ? what you mean ? I just went to the phone settings, turned it off then on again

Not sure how to do that... I checked /data/tombstone but found no dumps for that, and Im not a dev (yet) :confused:

I found on google that devs can get crash dumps remotely by adding some functions. I understand that making apps "call home" is bad, but maybe disable it by default and make it possible to users to volunteerly check it and autosend crash dumps (at least when the app is in development... then remove it in final version?). Or maybe just save them to a .txt file somewhere and ask manually to send it to you... uh... just ideas :)
[Android Apps and Games] ingenious247:
It's not updating when I disconnect or connect on wifi for me either

Also, no on/off toggle, which is needed IMO
[Android Apps and Games] ell3:
You can still turn on/off with expert -> start/stop service and reactivate it by tapping on the shield. Tapping again the shield won't stop it btw...
[Android Apps and Games] ingenious247:
Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] gurkedev:
In v1.1.1 the "wpa supplicant state change broadcast" bug has been fixed. Thanks a lot to avgjoemomma and oll3 for reporting.

Known bugs in v1.1.1:

- When an attack is detected by BSSID compare and you disable BSSID analysis while the attack lasts, then the end of the attack is not detected.

- When your phone sleeps (display is black) and disconnects from a wireless network (out of range for example) and then automatically connects to another (different) wireless network which comes in range without connecting to a mobile data network in the meantime, then you may get a false positive in some rare cases. Edit: Fixed in v1.1.2

Known limitations:

When you join a network which is already under attack and the attack is detected with BSSID analysis, then countermeasures are impossible because no "good" MAC of the gateway is known at this stage.

[Android Apps and Games] avgjoemomma:
Update looks good on my Nexus One so far, the only issue is the app doesn't start at boot (even if I'm connected to WiFi). Will do more thorough testing soon :)
[Android Apps and Games] ingenious247:
Correction, it only force closes when NOT connected to wifi
[Android Apps and Games] avgjoemomma:
K, quick suggestion. I now get false alarms every time I switch from Wifi to Data or vice versa. I think the app is already registered to be alerted upon a connection change so maybe you have a sanity check before sending the alert and arp -d'ing?
[Android Apps and Games] gurkedev:
This is already included in the market version when using froyo (2.2+). I haven't had time yet to implement it in the free version. Edit: Implemented in v1.1.2.

I'm still waiting the report you mentioned in your mail.

What type of detection are you using? MAC or BSSID?
[Android Apps and Games] killerjc:
Nice protector. here is too many virus for android now?
[Android Apps and Games] ell3:
Hi ! I got to test your 3rd revision, and I ran thru some problems... but they are hard to reproduce as sometimes it behaves one way, sometimes doesnt....

Anyway, I sent you the logcat via PM.

1) when I start/stop/start during an attack, sometimes it fails to detect the attack is still running.

2) I disconnected the phone, started the attack, connected the phone, attack got detected, went to expert and it crashed. (that's the last you could see in my logcat attached) Then app respawned but I think not as service (there is no more shield in upper left corner of screen) and the app keeps crashing when I go expert.

As for the detection rate, it's still not 100%, sometimes it fails when starting/stopping the attack. I think I got the best results with the first version (but that could be just an impression, as I told you, it's hard to recreate the exact actions that reproduce the bug or no-detection)

@killerjc - This is not against viruses that target your device, it's against arp-based attacks (they might happen only inside your LAN) that might target phones and other devices as well.

@OP - Thanks for updates and bugfixes !!
[Android Apps and Games] avgjoemomma:
BSSID, Deep :)
[Android Apps and Games] gurkedev:
v1.1.2 released today.

It comes with a couple of small bugfixes and performance improvements.

One word on BSSID analysis: If you get alerts with BSSID analysis enabled, go to Expert Perspective and compare the gateway MAC with the BSSID. You will probalby notice that the gateway MAC is completely different to the BSSID. This could be a network already under attack but it's more likely that you are connected to a virtualized wireless LAN. The concept of virtualization in wireless LANs is similar to wired networks.

Hi, I tried this app and it works perfectly. But i discovered few problems...

1. detection works perfectly, but countermeasures without busybox "arp" command doesn't work... I have installed busybox v1.19.3 (latest), but this version don't contain arp command (I do not know why).

This is a problem with my phone and not with app itself, some other people may have a similar problem, so here is a solution...

Solutoin: reinstalled busybox to version 1.18.4 (last version which contain arp command) and problem was solved :)

2. in version 1.1.2 when the network is under attack and countermeasures are active status is displayed as "Normal". In version 1.1.1 in this case there was information about the active countermeasures. I prefer to see the information that the network is under attack and countermeasure is active...

(Perhaps this is again a problem with my phone, but in the version 1.1.1 it was shown correctly)

Good work, very useful app :)
[Android Apps and Games] avgjoemomma:
I did some testing today at a Peet's and Starbucks as they were setting of WiFi Protector when I switched from 3G Data to WiFi (I use JuiceDefender to automatically switch based on location). gurkedev's analysis seems to be correct in that the APs used by these places use vLANs so we might get false alerts when using deeper levels of BSSID analysis. I'm keeping mine set to BSSID Deep as I don't mind the false alarms :p

I did some testing using two Nexus One's running CM7.x at Starbucks. I had one N1 running WiFI Protector and used my own to run WiFi Kill and the countermeasures worked like a charm. This is one app that will be installed by default for me :D Combined with sysctl hardening and the right iptables config, your phone should be pretty damned protected:p
[Android Apps and Games] gurkedev:
Thank you very much for sharing your insights and posting a solution! Next version will be smarter and won't rely on arp link to busybox exist.

v1.1.2 doesn't change shield color if attack starts while app main view is already open. Upcoming release will fix this. Attack prevention (countermeasures) should be shown correctly in v1.1.2.
[Android Apps and Games] :
I like this app! Great concept, well done. My one question is can you please add the option in settings to hide the icon in the notification bar unless I am under attack? This would be very useful to me. Thanks again for the app!:)
[Android Apps and Games] kwazi:

Very happy someone took the time to write this up, and even more happy that you're willing to share it with XDA members for free.

[Android Apps and Games] avgjoemomma:
I think it might need to be in the notification bar to keep the OS from killing it.
[Android Apps and Games] Carnelain:
Awesome app. One request though could you add an option only show a notification when under attack?
[Android Apps and Games] aloy99:
Is it possible to uninstall the app after making the phone immune to wifi attacks as I have a limited amount of ram on my phone and cannot have services constantly running.

Sent from my x10 mini running the latest version of minicm 7. :D
[Android Apps and Games] avgjoemomma:
I'm not the developer so he'll have to correct me if I'm wrong, but this app needs to remain active and running as it continuously is checking for attacks. You can't really flip a few settings on and be immune. There are some configurations that will help but nothing like how this app works. It monitors then takes countermeasures.

If I were you, I'd make room :p
