Working with WPA2 Making Password Lists WIth Cupp

Cupp is a popular Python-based tool used to generate custom password lists for various purposes, including cracking password-protected networks. Here are the steps to create a custom password list for WPA2 network:

1. Download and Install Cupp: First, download the latest version of Cupp from the official GitHub page. Once the download is complete, extract the files and install Cupp by running the setup.py file.

2. Open Terminal: Open a terminal window and navigate to the Cupp directory using the ‘cd’ command.

3. Run Cupp: Once you are in the Cupp directory, run the ‘cupp.py’ file by typing ‘python cupp.py’ in the terminal window.

4. Enter Target Information: You will be prompted to enter various pieces of information about your target. Provide as much information as possible to generate an accurate password list. You can specify the target’s name, date of birth, hobbies, interests, and any other personal information that you think could be relevant.

5. Select WPA2: Cupp supports several types of password lists, including those for WPA, WPA2, and other network protocols. Select WPA2 when prompted.

6. Choose Password Complexity: Next, select the level of password complexity you want to generate. You can choose from simple, medium, and complex passwords. You can also choose to generate a list of all possible combinations.

7. Wait for Completion: Cupp will now generate a custom password list based on the information you provided. The time it takes to complete the process depends on the complexity of the information you entered.

8. Use the Password List: Once the password list is generated, you can save it to a file and use it for password cracking purposes. You can use tools such as Aircrack-ng or Hashcat to crack WPA2 passwords using the password list generated by Cupp.

It is important to note that using Cupp or any other password cracking tool without the owner’s consent is illegal and unethical. Always use these tools for ethical purposes and with the owner’s consent.
