How to Code in Python 3 metaprogramming!

Some of the most significant changes in Python 3 are related to metaprogramming. In this tutorial, I'll cover decorators, class decorators, descriptors, and metaclasses. However, the focus will be on idioms and examples that are only....

Raspberry Pi Wireless Attack Toolkit


Raspberry Pi Wireless Attack Toolkit
A collection of pre-configured or automatically-configured tools that automate and ease the process of creating robust Man-in-the-middle attacks. The toolkit allows your to easily select between several attack modes and is specifically designed to be easily extendable with custom payloads, tools, and attacks.
The cornerstone of this project is the ability to inject Browser Exploitation Framework Hooks into a web browser without any warnings, alarms, or alerts to the user. 


We accomplish this objective mainly through wireless attacks, but also have a limpet mine mode with ettercap and a few other tricks.
Limpet Mine Mode:
Poisons a network with ettercap + runs MITM Attacks
Passive Wireless Mode:
Free Wifi anyone?
Agressive Wireless Mode:
Become every access point with hostapd-karma
Once the RaspberryPi becomes the gateway, it fires up a MITM DNS server, metasploit, BEEF, and an injection proxy server for HTTP which injects the BEEF hook. From there, you log into the beef console and start popping shell.
It's in Alpha, so complain about things you want to see in it now.

How to Upgrade Wine from the Older version to Wine1.5 on uBuntu

I am new to Wine and anything like it. I want to run the application "ATCS Monitor". When I installed ATCS Monitor I received an error message:

C:\windows\system32\wshom.ocx

Unable to register the DLL/OCX: RegSvr32 failed with exit code 0x1

-From Terminal-

err:typelib:sltg_get_typelib_ref Unable to find reference
err:module:import_dll Library ScrRun.dll (which is needed by L"C:\\windows\\system32\\wshom.ocx") not found


I can get through it by just ignoring it but I then have errors in ATCS Monitor.

First, upgrade to Wine 1.3.35. Wine 1.2.3 is almost a year old and is 
missing some very important updates. 

Second, do a search for the file in the directory $HOME/.wine I suspect 
that either it is not there or it is in the same directory as where the 
program installed. ...


Ubuntu and Ubuntu derivatives (such as Kubuntu) obtain software from packages which are stored in repositories. Ubuntu's default repository includes Wine, however if you want to stay up to date with the latest Wine package you can use WineHQ's by following these instructions.

Adding the WineHQ PPA Repository:

Open the Software Sources menu by launching the Ubuntu Software Center and selecting Edit->Software Sources. Choose the Other Software tab and click Add.
Software Center->Edit->Software Sources->Other Software
Then, copy and paste the line below.
ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa

Warning: Beta packages

The 1.5 packages here are beta packages. This means they will periodically suffer from regressions, and as a result an update may break functionality in Wine. If the stable 1.4 Wine version works for you, then you may not want to use these beta packages.

Installing Wine:

Once you have added the WineHQ PPA Repository, you are ready to install.
To get the most recent Wine 1.5 beta, click this link to install the wine1.5 package.
To install the older, stable Wine 1.4 version, click this link to install the wine1.4 package.

Upgrading to a new version of Ubuntu

If you are upgrading the entire system, such as going from Ubuntu 11.10 to 12.04, you will need to come back to this page and add the repository again. The built in update manager will not switch the Wine repository automatically.

Alternative Command Line Instructions for Installing Wine:

It is also possible to add the Wine PPA and install via the terminal. This may be useful on Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and other Ubuntu derivatives.
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa
Then update APT package information by running 'sudo apt-get update'. You can now install Wine by typing 'sudo apt-get install wine1.5'.
If you'd like to browse the PPA manually, you can visit its Launchpad page.

HOW TO Solve issue Nvidia & X.org Server Problems on Linux or BackTrack5


  1. I spent a week trying to resolve the error generated by X.org Server and Nvidia drivers, and I think I've finally solved.
    This is the solution for my Nvidia GT540M & Intel i7-2670QM (ASUS X53SV-SX598V)
    1. Download NVIDIA driver from here: http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html.
    I use Linux x86_64/AMD64/EM64T (NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-285.05.09.run) for my system at 64bit
    2. Install system updates
    Code:
    sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
    3. Install linux-header to the upgraded kernel
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r)
    4. If dkms and build essential haven't been installed
    Code:
    sudo apt-get install dkms build-essential
    5. Open blacklist.conf file to add some lines (I use vi command)
    Code:
    vi /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
    6. Press i and after others “blacklist” list add this list
    Code:
    blacklist vga16fb
    blacklist nouveau
    blacklist rivafb
    blacklist nvidiafb
    blacklist rivatv
    7. After that, press ESC and type :wq (this write the file)
    8. Make grub.cfg writable
    Code:
    chmod +w /boot/grub/grub.cfg
    9. Open grub.cfg file
    Code:
    vi /boot/grub/grub.cfg
    10. Find text splash text inside the document and add nouveau.modeset=0 text like this
    Code:
    text splash nouveau.modeset=0 vga=791
    11. After that, press ESC and type :wq (this write the file)
    12. Disable writable mode to grub.cfg file
    Code:
    chmod -w /boot/grub/grub.cfg
    13. Update grub.cfg file
    Code:
    update-grub‎
    14. Reboot
    15. Login and don’t write startx
    16. Remove all previous Nvidia drivers
    Code:
    sudo apt-get --purge remove nvidia-*
    17. Remove default drivers
    Code:
    sudo apt-get --purge remove xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
    18. Chmod the nvidia driver file
    Code:
    chmod a+x NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-285.05.09.run
    19. Run the nvidia driver*
    Code:
    sh ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-285.05.09.run
    *If you use a 64bit system don’t install the OpenGL 32bit
    20. Reboot

    If you have a problem like this:
    Code:
     
    X.Org X Server 1.7.6
    Release Date: 2010-03-17
    X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
    Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.24-28-server x86_64 Ubuntu
    [...]
    Fatal server error:
    no screens found

    It means that the automatic writing of xorg.conf (nvidia-xconfig command) during installation is not successful., but the driver has been installed correctly.
    To solve this problem just delete the xorg.conf file:

    Code:
    rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    When you restart the PC the file xorg.conf file will be created automatically.
    Reebot and type
    Code:
    startx
    I hope it helps
