Instant error while running

[jmvermeulen]

Running probquest -i wlan0 instantly results in this error:

root@raspberrypi:/# probequest -i wlan0
[*] Start sniffing probe requests...
Exception in thread Thread-2:

The software is running on a Raspberry PI 3 with the most recent raspbian.

Al you can see there are multiple SSID's as plain text in the packet.
Sorry for the formatting, cannot escape the text.

Hi @jmvermeulen,

Thank you for reporting this issue and for the raw packet. I will have a look at it as soon as possible.

[jmvermeulen]

@SkypLabs thanks!
I found this code with the same goal, maybe the same if statement makes sense here?
https://github.com/0x90/iSniff/blob/1c24c08c0d8dedb75aa8274c05779f721add5729/iSniff.py#L33

If I can help you debug, please let me know :-)

[SkypLabs]

Oh thanks @jmvermeulen, I really appreciate!

I'm adding unit tests for the ProbeRequestSniffer.ProbeRequestParser.parse() method. Thank you for the link, it will be useful 👍

By the way, would you be interested in participating in this project more often? I have a list of features I would like to implement for no much time for that.

Same issue although different line

[SkypLabs]

@adamistheanswer @soupnatzi Could you give me more details about the version you use?

Typically @soupnatzi , I see in your traceback the file probequest/ui/raw.py which has been introduced with commit 6247701 which is 6 commits ahead of the last release. You should only use the latest release version and not what is under development (and consequently not considered as stable).

I will update the installation documentation to precise this point for those who want to install ProbeQuest from its source code.

[ghost]

sure. i am running version 0.6.1.using alfa usb adapter awus036ach 802.11ac utra range

[ghost]

so i restarted the usb adapter and it started working.

[SkypLabs]

sure. i am running version 0.6.1.using alfa usb adapter awus036ach 802.11ac utra range

Actually, as said in my previous message, you are using a version which is in between v0.6.1 and the future v0.7.0 because probequest/ui/raw.py doesn't exist in v0.6.1. I suspect you have installed ProbeQuest from its source code and you didn't do a git checkout v0.6.1 (I will specify this point in the documentation) to use the latest release version. Consequently, you are using an unfinished (and potentially bugged) version despite what pip and probequest --version tell you.

so i restarted the usb adapter and it started working.

Glad to know that it works for you now.

[SkypLabs]

I just issued a patched version (v0.6.2) to address this issue. It's just a quick patch until I finish my work on v0.7.0 which will contain rigorous unit tests.

@jmvermeulen To analyse the raw frame you gave me, I used the code below producing this PDF.

frame_decoded = RadioTap(raw_frame)
frame_decoded.pdfdump("raw_frame_decoded.pdf")

As we can see in the PDF, the frame does not contain any Dot11ProbeReq layer, hence the if statement I added in v0.6.2 to fix the issue.

[SkypLabs]

Unit tests have been added and I just released version 0.7.0.

Thank you all for your help.

[jmvermeulen]

Thanks! Will retry soon :-)

won't sniff any pocket .any help would be appreciated.

[SkypLabs]

Hi @maroun11970,

To be able to help you, I need more information about your setup. What version of ProbeQuest do you use? How have you installed it? Have you enabled the monitor mode?...

Additionally, could you please open a new issue for your request? Your problem doesn't seem to be related to the one of the current thread.

Cheers.
