Reaver - The 99.99% Problem

Musket Team Alpha wishes to warn all Reaver users that the
99.99% problem still exists in all versions of Reaver 1.4.
We have had five(5) cases in two(2) different areas and on
different computers using Kali-linux. In the past the same
problem exited when using BT5 so we do not think kali-linux
is the problem. If you go to the WPS Reaver forums you can
find the problem. Reaver will run up to 99.99% and then go
into an endless loop. The fix for this was posted but we
thought the newer Reaver would have included this fix.
Obviously this is not the case and/or the patch doesn't work.

Ubuntu PC's by System76

& Support!

We address this problem by reverting to reaver 1.3 on a BT5

OS. This always cracks the code.
We will patch our exiting Reaver 1.4 and test it. We have
noted other problems with the newer Reaver which will be
posted shortly

Further Updates
We tried using BT5R1/Reaver1.3 against the following router. The program ran up to just over 98% then started
requesting only one number(ie 76845) climbed to 99% and went into an endless loop. So the Reaver 1.3 solution
did not work.

We have reloaded reaver 1.4 on two(2) computers making sure we have the latest Reaver 1.4-2kali7 and are
testing again against the six(6) routers that are giving us endless loop problems. We will update when we have
more data.

Sweet, I ran into this problem twice over the past month. I thought that the AP simply stopped responding and
locking itself or wash reported incorrect data, that the AP was locked all along. Good to know an update is
coming.

bully has the option to bruteforce last checksum digit of PIN. It seems like solution for this problem.

For clarification as our team have routers in our area that has produced this 99.99% problem. We are simply
testing Reaver 1.4-2kali7 which to our knowledge is the latest update. If you have routers in you area we suggest
you test as well.
First run
apt-get update
then
apt-get install reaver
This will insure you have Reaver 1.4-2kali7
Since you already have a Reaver file against the router you want to start again from the beginning
To do this we run Reaver without the -a -f command
reaver -i mon0 -c XX -b MA:CO E:TA:RG:ET -vv -x 60
Reaver will ask you if you want to use the saved data Type n
Let Reaver Run a bit then shut down with ctrl-c
add the -a -f to the command line and continue
reaver -i mon0 -a -f -c XX -b MA:CO E:TA:RG:ET -vv -x 60
We are interested what you find. You might post your test at the WPS-Reaver site as well.

Thanx to gffy!!!. We updated our bully in kali-linux with:

apt-get install bully
Ran some tests and your suggestions look very promising. We are half way thru a reaver test, if it fails we will
run bully normally and if it fails try the brute force checksum apporach but the help files state this takes 10 times
longer. But regardless we will post here as we work thru these routers.

Against our first router that showed the 99.99% problem - kali-linux using Reaver 1.4-2kali7 cracked the code.

I have been following this thread with interest and would like to know if I have the correct version of Reaver
installed on my
Vm Machine.
I have done the apt-get update/install with the following output....
Code:
apt-get install reaver
Reading package lists...
Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information...
Done
reaver is already the newest version.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

After we have updated our reaver and ran apt-get install reaver we got the exact same output to screen. A word of
caution though. We gave up VM ware years ago so take anything we say on the matter as ancient logic.
However we had alot of problems spoofing a mac when using VM ware. AND spoofing a mac when using reaver
is a bit different. If you try and spoof your mac we suggest you monitor reaver output to the target by running
airodump-ng on the channel and --bssid of your targetAP. Look very closely at the mac code reaver is using
during its process. To save you time researching we will give you the steps to spoof a mac with reaver but we
doubt it will work in a VM shell. WE do not mind at all if you prove us wrong.
We have used wlan0 as our wi-fi device which you can change to meet your systems wifi designation
ifconfig wlan0 down
ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55
ifconfig wlan0 up
airmon-ng start wlan0
reaver -i mon0 -a -f -c 1 -b 55:44:33:22:11:00 -vv -x --mac=00:11:22:33:44:55
The mac code you spoof with
ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55
must also be in the reaver commmand line
Sorry to get off topic but your mention of VM ware brought back alot of bad memories. Wish you luck. We think
the authors of reaver have solved the 99.99% problem. In closing we have just posted a reaver tool that you can
employ in certain circumstances. We have posted this tool in these forums.
