TP Link Router Hacking : Demo

TP Link Archer C5 Router Hacking  0 Today we got our hands on a brand new TP Link Archer C5 router which we will be testing for known vulnerabilities such as hidden backdoors and vulnerabilities, brute force default passwords and WPS vulnerabilities. In this new WiFi hacking tutorial we will be using different tools on Kali Linux 2.0 like Reaver, pixiewps and the Aircrack-ng suite to exploit possible vulnerabilities. TP Link is known to use easy to break default passwords such as the WPS PIN as default wireless password or a password which is derived directly from the MAC address. Especially the last one would make it very easy to retrieve the password because the MAC address is not meant to be secret and is actually send with every single wireless packet send from the router. With a packet analyser like Wireshark it is very easy to retrieve MAC addresses from sending and receiving devices, including the router. In this tutorial we’ll be using airodump-ng for this purpose

Hacking and Securing Wing FTP Server 4.3.8 In this tutorial we will be looking at how to exploit an authenticated command execution vulnerability in Wing FTP Server 4.3.8 and how to fix this security issue. Authenticated command execution vulnerabilities allow an authenticated attacker to execute arbitrary commands on the target system. In this situation the vulnerability is still ‘protected’ by an authentication layer because the vulnerability resides in the administrator panel. Unauthenticated command execution vulnerabilities are way more dangerous as they reside in publicly accessible places and can be exploited by anyone without authentication. Before we are going to analyse and exploit this vulnerability we will first have a look at Wing FTP Server in general and its extensive list of features. Wing FTP server Wing FTP server is multi-protocol enterprise grade file server with a lot of features that runs on multiple platforms such as Windows, Linux, Mac OSX and S
