Overview

This MCP server wraps the aircrack-ng suite (airmon-ng, airodump-ng, aireplay-ng, aircrack-ng) into a structured AI-accessible toolkit for wireless penetration testing and security audits.

Requirements

| Requirement | Details | |-------------------|----------------------------------------------| | OS | Linux (Kali, Parrot, Ubuntu) | | Python | 3.10+ | | Privileges | Must run as root (sudo) | | WiFi adapter | Must support monitor mode & packet injection | | aircrack-ng suite | sudo apt install aircrack-ng |

Install aircrack-ng

sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y aircrack-ng

Optional (recommended)

sudo apt install -y tshark   # for handshake detection in capture files
sudo apt install -y hashcat  # for GPU-accelerated cracking (outside this MCP)

---

Installation

# Clone or copy the server files
cd wifi_pentest_mcp

# Install Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Run as root
sudo python server.py

Claude Desktop / MCP Client Configuration

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wifi_pentest": {
      "command": "sudo",
      "args": ["python", "/path/to/wifi_pentest_mcp/server.py"]
    }
  }
}

Or using uv:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wifi_pentest": {

Available Tools

🔧 Setup & Diagnostics

| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | wifi_check_tools | Verify aircrack-ng suite is installed; list interfaces | | wifi_list_interfaces | List wireless interfaces with chipset/driver info | | wifi_kill_interfering_processes | Kill NetworkManager, wpa_supplicant (optional dry-run) |

📡 Monitor Mode

| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | wifi_enable_monitor_mode | airmon-ng start — puts card into monitor mode | | wifi_disable_monitor_mode | airmon-ng stop — restores managed mode |

🔍 Scanning & Capture

| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | wifi_scan_networks | Passive scan for APs & clients via airodump-ng | | wifi_capture_handshake | Targeted capture on one AP to collect WPA handshake |

⚔️ Active Attacks

| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | wifi_deauth_attack | aireplay-ng -0 — send deauth frames to disconnect clients | | wifi_fake_auth | aireplay-ng -1 — fake-authenticate to a WEP AP | | wifi_arp_replay | aireplay-ng -3 — ARP replay to speed up WEP IV collection |

🔑 Cracking

| Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | wifi_crack_password | aircrack-ng dictionary attack on .cap file | | wifi_extract_handshakes | List all handshakes in a capture file (no cracking) |

Typical WPA2 Pentest Workflow

1. wifi_check_tools             → verify setup
2. wifi_list_interfaces         → find your adapter (e.g., wlan0)
3. wifi_kill_interfering_processes (dry_run=false)
4. wifi_enable_monitor_mode     → interface = "wlan0"  → gets "wlan0mon"
5. wifi_scan_networks           → interface = "wlan0mon", duration = 20
   (note target BSSID, channel, ESSID)
6. wifi_capture_handshake       → bssid, channel, interface, duration = 60
   (run simultaneously with step 7)
7. wifi_deauth_attack            → bssid, client = "FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF", count = 5
   (forces client re-auth → triggers 4-way handshake in capture)
8. wifi_extract_handshakes      → verify .cap has a handshake
9. wifi_crack_password          → capture_file, wordlist, bssid
10. wifi_disable_monitor_mode   → restore normal operation

Typical WEP Pentest Workflow

1–4. Same as above
5. wifi_scan_networks           → identify WEP target
6. wifi_capture_handshake       → start capturing IVs
7. wifi_fake_auth               → associate with AP
8. wifi_arp_replay              → accelerate IV generation (need 50,000+ IVs)
9. wifi_crack_password          → aircrack-ng cracks WEP automatically from IVs

Output Files

Capture files are saved to /tmp/wifi_pentest_mcp/ by default.

| File | Contents | |------|----------| | -01.cap | Raw packet capture (for cracking) | | -01.csv | Network/client list from airodump-ng |

---

Wordlists

| Wordlist | Path | |----------|------| | rockyou | /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt (Kali default) | | SecLists | /usr/share/seclists/Passwords/ | | Custom | Any plaintext file, one password per line |

Uncompress rockyou if needed: sudo gunzip /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt.gz

---

Troubleshooting

| Problem | Solution | |---------|----------| | airmon-ng not found | sudo apt install aircrack-ng | | Interface not in monitor mode | Run wifi_enable_monitor_mode first | | No networks found | Check adapter supports monitor mode | | No handshake captured | Run wifi_deauth_attack to force reconnect | | "Permission denied" | Run server with sudo | | Handshake not detected | Install tshark: sudo apt install tshark |
