I tested several networks and couldn't find one that wasn't vulnerable! The problem with that is, most routers use unencrypted managment frames by default, don't provide any option to change that and don't provide any information about this issue. Both ends of the connection need to use it! Your client device (e.g your phone, notebook etc.) needs to support that too. So make sure your router is up to date and has management frame protection enabled. This makes spoofing these packets way harder and the attack, in this form, ineffective. With 802.11w-2009 the Wi-Fi protocol became encrypted management (and deauthentication) frames.

Is deauthing legal? WiFi Jammers/Deauthers | Legal? How to protect yourself against it If you don't want to attack all connected devices, you can also scan for connections and attack them specifically. You only need the mac address of the access point, which you can sniff easily. The deauth attack works by exploiting an old and known vulnerability in the 802.11 Wi-Fi protocol.īecause these deauthentication frames, usually used to close a Wi-Fi connection safely, are unencrypted, it's very easy to spoof them. Other attacks also have been implemented, such as beacon and probe request flooding. The difference between deauthing and jamming: WiFi Jammers vs Deauthers | What's The Difference? Depending on the network, that can either block a connection or slow it down. Because the attack is running constantly, the devices will be disconnected again and again. The deauth attack will, if the connection is vulnerable, disconnect the devices from the network. With this software flashed onto it, you can select a target network and start different attacks. The ESP8266 is a cheap and easy to use Wi-Fi SoC (System-on-a-Chip), programmable with the Arduino IDE. This software allows you to perform a deauth attack with an ESP8266 against selected networks.
