Reaver implements a brute force attack against Wifi Protected Setup
|
|
(WPS) registrar PINs in order to recover WPA/WPA2 passphrases, as
|
|
described in:
|
|
http://sviehb.files.wordpress.com/2011/12/viehboeck_wps.pdf.
|
|
|
|
Reaver has been designed to be a robust and practical attack against
|
|
WPS, and has been tested against a wide variety of access points and
|
|
WPS implementations.
|
|
|
|
On average Reaver will recover the target AP's plain text WPA/WPA2
|
|
passphrase in 4-10 hours, depending on the AP. In practice, it will
|
|
generally take half this time to guess the correct WPS pin and recover
|
|
the passphrase.
