Sniffing SSL traffic using MITM attack / ettercap, fragrouter, webmitm and dnsspoof.

Before reading on this guide is for educational purposes only. I take no responsibility from what people do with this info.

First thing is to get fragrouter. I don't know if you can use other tools provided with the backtrack, there are 100 ways to skin a cat and this is just my way.

There are lots of things that you can do with fragrouter but we are going to use fragrouter to setup IP forwarding.

We do this with this command :


Code:
fragrouter -B1Squash that window and put it to one side. Now open another shell and we will start dnsspoof with this command


Code:
dnsspoof -i ath0 (or whatever network interface you are using)Again put that window to one side and lets load up webmitm. Webmitm will issue our ssl cert to the victim so we can decrypt the traffic we capture.

Start webmitm by typing


Code:
webmitm -dNow we can start the arp spoof. To start ettercap type


Code:
ettercap -T -M arp:remote /router addy/ /victim addy/Ok now we are rolling next thing is to sniff the traffic. There are a few things you can do know like using ettercap filters and adding urls from metasploit, (Maybe next tut ) and lots of other things. But we are intrested in the ssl traffic so I use wireshark to save the data into a .cap file.

You can find wireshark in Backtrack >>> Privilege Escalation >>> Sniffers.

Now we have loaded wireshark lets start capturing packets. Go to Capture >>> Options and setup what network card you are using and then hit start.

Ok you should now be capturing packets addressed to your victims addy. Once you have captured enough, stop wireshark and save the data to your root directory.

Now to decrypt the SSL data.

You should first download ssldump:

ssldump is going to decrypt our sniffed ssl data using our fake ssl cert we issued to the victim. We do this by opening up a shell and typing:


Code:
ssldump -r your.cap -w webmitm.crt -d > outAnd you are done, all the ssl data will be saved to a file called out in your root dir. Use what you like to search it for passwords etc.
