Raspberry Pi One Configuration from Scratch

I was doing an IoT project and had to go visit various websites to configure my old raspberry pi one from scratch, therefore I wanted to write all the steps I followed in this blog.

Download Raspbian Lite from

https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/

Install Raspbian Jessie Lite on to your blank micro SD card using Win32DiskImager, this is just a case of copying the extracted files into the card. That's the what the program does.

Ensure you have atleast network connectivity, some Wireless cards are supported by raspian by default some are not, therefore it's important to stay connected to the internet atleast through ethernet. I use a TP-LINK 300Mbps Mini Wireless N USB Adapter (TL-WN823N), install the drivers using the below link & commands

wget https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/80256631/install-wifi.tar.gz
tar xzf install-wifi.tar.gz
./install-wifi 8192eu

 ** the dropbox user is some random guy if you want to try the mfr drivers there are in this link below. I haven't tried this yet.

 http://www.tp-link.com/en/download/TL-WN823N.html#Driver

By checking using the 'ifconfig' command you should be able to see the wlan0, if not the drivers are wrong.

Add the following lines to ensure the interface is setup to be assigned an IP address using the router dhcp, in the /etc/network/interfaces file.

 allow-hotplug wlan0
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-essid RANDOMHOSTSPOTNAME
wpa-conf /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

 Generate a pre-shared-key-configuration, this helps to keep the PSK secure not revealing it to any other users.

#wpa_passphrase Nano-Hotspot secretpassword
network={
 ssid="Nano-Hotspot"
 #psk="secretpassword"
 psk=225df5bb1afghfg27c09cbef5eddb1d8a59f1e0b475a3
}

 secretpassword is your Wifi PSK. Add the above configuration to /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf file. Reboot the pi, that hopefully should have the Rasp setup for a new beginning!

Note the drivers have to be updated everytime the OS is updated, which makes sense to have this blog, right? ;-)

The correct way to install Jython (for Burpsuite)

You need to install Jython the correct way in order to ensure some of the Burp plugins work correctly. Some of these Burp plugins depend on Python libraries for e.g. requests, so installing Jython and then using  $ wget https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/python/jython-installer/2.7.2/jython-installer-2.7.2.jar $ java -jar jython-installer-2.7.2.jar -s -d /path/to/install/jython -t standard Further for e.g. if you need requests install it like this: Download requests-2.25.1.tar.gz from the official repo ( https://pypi.org/project/requests/#files ), then go to that directory in terminal, and type the following command, java -jar /Users/brutus/Downloads/jython-standalone-2.7.2.jar setup.py install

RFID cloning with Proxmark3 Easy

Image
In this post, I would like to explain how in a recent Red Team engagement, I successfully managed to clone an RFID Access Control card and gained entry into the premise. #TheKit The client was using HiD 125khz cards. I used "Proxmark 3 Easy" which is a low cost RFID cloning kit, is a stripped down version of the real “ Proxmark 3 RDV 2 ”. The "Proxmark3 easy" does not support several things like battery, relaying and doesn't have an amplifier, also it has a smaller memory. But the device is quite sufficient during a Red Team Physical engagement. It looks something like this when you order on Amazon. I wanted to build a mobile RFID cloning kit and use it for my Red Team engagements, but note with this setup the scanning distance of 6cm is useless in real engagements, I'm not that brave enough and you really have to get up close to clone a card so the setup initially didn't work, however I got lucky and me and my partner found a lost targe

Extracting an IPA; App distributed through Testflight

So in one of my iOS app pentest the app was distributed on TestFlight, I needed a clean IPA to makesure, I review the app after unpacking it. The option was for me to use a Jailbroken device and use Ext3nder, which allows the app to be re-packaged. Once you do that you could use SCP to download the IPA and use it to analyse or side load through xCode.
