Kismet with GPS in Kali Linux Tutorial
I recently ran into a situation where I needed to use Kismet with GPS support. This was extremely difficult to accomplish, not because the installation
I have written this Python script to parse .netxml files output by
Kismet and then return a CSV file that can be uploaded to Google Mapping
Engine. This will simplify war driving campaigns by allowing
vulnerable networks (WEP or Open) to be easily mapped on Google Maps.
The WAPMap Github repository can be found here
To use this tool, you will need to have Kismet working with a GPS device
connected to your Kali Linux host. I have provided an explanation on
how to do that here
First, you will need to clone the Github WAPMap repository. This can be done with the following command:
# git clone https://github/hack1thu7ch/WAPMap.git
When the script is run without any arguments, it returns the usage
description. To run this script, you will need to supply three (3)
arguments. These include the Kismet.netxml file of the Kismet scan from
which you want to generate your map, the mapping mode (includes -wep
and -open) and the name of the output CSV file that will be used to
generate the map.
In the example provided below, I have used a .netxml file from a scan I
performed around my apartment complex. I have used the -wep argument to
map out WEP encrypted networks. And I have used wep_upload.csv as the
output file name (this name is arbitrary, and you can use anything as
long as you append a .csv to the end).
Once run, the script will output a tab delimited table showing the
detected vulnerable networks of the specified encryption level.
Additionally, it will also output the CSV file that is highlighted
above. This is the one you will upload to Google. Once you have this
file, open your web browser and go to:
Once the page loads, click the “Create a New Map” button.
Next, you will need to click the “Import” link in the menu in the top-left corner of the map.
This will bring up a screen that will allow you to choose the input
file. Here, you can either drag-n-drop the CSV file or you can click
“Select a file from your computer” and browse to it in the file tree.
Once you choose your file, the menu below will pop up. It will ask you
to specify the columns for latitude and longitude. I have designed the
CSV in such a way that these check boxes will auto populate. All you
have to do is click “Continue”.
