How to do rogue AP attack in Linux using WifiPumpkin3

 

A rogue access point (or AP) is a wireless access point that is not managed by your network administrator because it is installed on your network without your permission. Rogue APs do not have the same security settings as other access points. These APs are physically located behind a network firewall. This means that anyone who has access to the AP has access to a wider network.  A rogue AP is a wireless access point installed on a wired network infrastructure without the permission of the network administrator or owner to provide rogue wireless access to the network's wired infrastructure. There is likely to be. Anyway, rogue access points can be used in a variety of attacks, including denial of service, data theft, and other malware implementations.
