This Week In Security: Session Puzzling, Session Keys, And Speculation 7 Comments Posted in News, Wireless Hacks Tagged analysis, ESP32, ESP8266, network, packet, sniffer, wifi, wireless Post navigation He’s also been featured here before for using an ESP8266 as a WiFi jammer.
His YouTube channel is full of interesting videos of him exploring various exploits and testing other pieces of hardware. is no stranger to wireless networks, either. has written this as a proof-of-concept, so there are some rough edges still, but this looks very promising as a network analysis tool. There are many example scripts for the various hardware you might be using, and since this is written for the ESP platform it’s also Arduino compatible. The program runs once every 30 seconds, creating a new Pcap file each time.
The library that created uses the ESP chip to save Pcap files (the default Wireshark filetype) onto an SD card or send the data over a serial connection. Its popularity guaranteed that it would eventually be paired with the ESP32/8266, the rising star of the wireless hardware world, and has finally brought these two tools together to sniff WiFi packets. It’s one of the most popular network analysis tools available, partially due to it being free and open source. Everyone’s favorite packet sniffing tool, Wireshark, has been around for almost two decades now.
