I want to know all the nearby wifi networks and know all the devices connected to each network.
I want to know who’s hogging all the bandwidth.
I want to run a command when this MAC address sends more than 100000 bytes in a 30 second window (maybe to determine when an IP camera is uploading a video, which is indicative that it just saw motion).
I want to deauth anyone who uses more than 100000 bytes in a 10 second window.
I want to deauth every Dropcam in the area so my Airbnb hosts don’t spy on me.
I want to be alerted when any MAC address is seen at a power level greater than -40dBm that I’ve never seen before.
I want to see when this particular person is nearby (based on the MAC of their mobile phone) and run a command to alert me.
I want to write my own plugin to run some script to do something fun every time a new Apple device shows up nearby.

Usage

Find detailed usage like this:

trackerjacker -h

There are 2 major usage modes for trackerjacker: map mode and track mode:

Map mode example


Map command:

::

   trackerjacker -i wlan1337 --map

By default, this outputs the ``wifi_map.yaml`` YAML file, which is a map
of all the nearby WiFi networks and all of their users. Here’s an
example ``wifi_map.yaml`` file:

Note that, since this is YAML, you can easily use it as an input for
other scripts of your own devising. I have an example script to parse
this “YAML DB” here:
`parse_trackerjacker_wifi_map.py <https://gist.github.com/calebmadrigal/fdb8855a6d05c87bbb0254a1424ee582>`__.

Example: Track mode with trigger command

Track mode allows you to specify some number of MAC addresses to watch, and if any specific devices exceeds the threshold (in bytes), specified here with the --threshold 4000 (specifying an alert threshold of 4000 bytes) an alert will be triggered.

trackerjacker --track -m 3c:2e:ff:31:32:59 --threshold 4000 --trigger-command "./alert.sh" --channels-to-monitor 10,11,12,44 Using monitor mode interface: wlan1337 Monitoring channels: {10, 11, 12, 44}

[@] Device (3c:2e:ff:31:32:59) threshold hit: 4734

[@] Device (3c:2e:ff:31:32:59) threshold hit: 7717

[@] Device (3c:2e:ff:31:32:59) threshold hit: 7124

[@] Device (3c:2e:ff:31:32:59) threshold hit: 8258

[@] Device (3c:2e:ff:31:32:59) threshold hit: 8922

In this particular example, I was watching a security camera to determine when it was uploading a video (indicating motion was detected) so that I could turn on my security system sirens (which was the original genesis of this project).

Example: Track mode with foxhunt plugin


::

   trackerjacker -i wlan1337 --track --trigger-plugin foxhunt

Displays a curses screen like this:

-  Note that ``foxhunt`` is a builtin plugin, but you can define your
   own plugins using the same Plugin API.

Example: Track mode with trigger plugin

$ trackerjacker --track -m 3c:2e:ff:31:32:59 --threshold 10 --trigger-plugin examples/plugin_example1.py --channels-to-monitor 10,11,12,44 --trigger-cooldown 1 Using monitor mode interface: wlan1337 Monitoring channels: {10, 11, 12, 44} [@] Device (device 3c:2e:ff:31:32:59) threshold hit: 34 bytes 3c:2e:ff:31:32:59 seen at: [1521926768.756529] [@] Device (device 3c:2e:ff:31:32:59) threshold hit: 11880 bytes 3c:2e:ff:31:32:59 seen at: [1521926768.756529, 1521926769.758929] [@] Device (device 3c:2e:ff:31:32:59) threshold hit: 18564 bytes 3c:2e:ff:31:32:59 seen at: [1521926768.756529, 1521926769.758929, 1521926770.7622838]

This runs examples/plugin_example1.py every time 3c:2e:ff:31:32:59 is seen sending/receiving 10 bytes or more.

trackerjacker plugins are simply python files that contain either: * Trigger class which defines a __call__(**kwargs) method (example: examples/plugin_example1.py) * trigger(**kwargs) function (example: examples/plugin_example2.py)

And optionally a __apiversion__ = 1 line (for future backward compatibility)

Example: Configuring with config file


::

   trackerjacker.py -c my_config.json

And here’s the example config file called ``my_config.json``:

::

   {
       "iface": "wlan1337",
       "devices_to_watch": {"5f:cb:53:1c:8a:2c": 1000, "32:44:1b:d7:a1:5b": 2000},
       "aps_to_watch": {"c6:23:ef:33:cc:a2": 500},
       "threshold_window": 10,
       "channels_to_monitor": [1, 6, 11, 52],
       "channel_switch_scheme": "round_robin"
   }

A few notes about this:

-  ``threshold_bytes`` is the default threshold of bytes which, if seen,
   a causes the alert function to be called
-  ``threshold_window`` is the time window in which the
   ``threshold_bytes`` is analyzed.
-  ``devices_to_watch`` is a list which can contain either strings
   (representing MACs) or dicts (which allow the specification of a
   ``name`` and ``threshold``)

   -  ``name`` is simply what a label you want to be printed when this
      device is seen.
   -  ``threshold`` in the “Security camera” is how many bytes must be
      seen

-  ``channels_to_monitor`` - list of 802.11 wifi channels to monitor.
   The list of channels your wifi card supports is printed when
   trackerjacker starts up. By default, all supported channels are
   monitored.
-  ``channel_switch_scheme`` - either ``default``, ``round_robin``, or
   ``traffic_based``. ``traffic_based`` determines the channels of most
   traffic, and probabilistically monitors them more.

Example: Enable/Disable monitor mode on interface

Trackerjacker comes with a few other utility functions relevant to WiFi hacking. One of these is the ability to turn on monitor mode on a specific interface.

Enable monitor mode:

trackerjacker --monitor-mode-on -i wlan0

Disable monitor mode:

trackerjacker --monitor-mode-off -i wlan0mon

Note that trackerjacker will automatically enable/disable monitor mode if necessary. This functionality is just useful if you want to enable monitor mode on an interface for use with other applications (or for quicker starup of trackerjacker, if you plan to be starting/exiting to test stuff).

Example: Set adapter channel


::

   trackerjacker --set-channel 11 -i wlan0

Note that trackerjacker will automatically switch channels as necessary
during normal map/track actions. This option is just useful if you want
to set the channel on an interface for use with other applications.

   ugly)
-  TP-Link N150 (works well, but not dual band)

Roadmap
-------

-  ☒ Hosted in PyPI
-  ☒ Radio signal strength for APs

-  ☒ Build map by data exchanged (exclude beacons)
-  ☒ Packet count by AP
-  ☒ Packet count by MAC
-  ☒ Easier way to input per-device tracking thresholds
-  ☒ Plugin system
-  ☒ Fox hunt mode
-  ☒ Tracking by SSID (and not just BSSID)
-  ☒ Basic macOS (OS X) support (pre-alpha)
-  ☐ macOS support: get signal strength values correct (will be fixed in
   https://github.com/secdev/scapy/pull/1381
-  ☐ macOS support: reverse airport binary to determine how to set true
   monitor mode
-  ☐ macOS support: diverse interface support (not just ``en0``)
-  ☐ macOS support: get interface supported channels
-  ☐ Mapping a specific SSID
-  ☐ Performance enhancement: not shelling out for channel switching
-  ☐ “Jack” mode - deauth attacks
