Welcome back, my friends !!! Today we’ll be hacking
Facebook profiles on your local network. You may think, “How is this
useful ?? , nobody but me is using my network.! ” Well, you can use this
on other Wi-Fi networks that are available for free (open Wi-fi) and
crack their precious Facebook profile!! it sounds good is in it ??
note: This only works if your target is actually browsing through Facebook over http (not https) at the time you’re doing the hack.

How ??
We are going to use a well known method called “The
cookie injection method.” This might be far off from becoming “elite,”
but you need to get familiar with your Linux distribution first.
Step 1 : Get the right “stuff”
For this hack, you’ll need a few things. Nothing special, but
you’ll need this stuff. My best suggestion is that you first install
BackTrack, Kali Linux, or Bugtraq because they have almost everything we
need.
For this little trick, we’ll need:
- A working Linux distribution (preferably Kali, Backtrack or Bugtraq)
- Wireshark (a packet sniffer)
- Firefox (web browser)
- Nmap (scanner)
- Greasemonkey (addon for Firefox)
- Cookie injector (script for Greasemonkey)*
Step 2 : Network scan
First, to actually connect to a target, we’ll need an IP address. In order to get that, you’ll need to do a network scan with Nmap. So go ahead and boot up your terminal and enter the following command:
- nmap -F 192.168.xx.xx/24
Note: If this doesn’t work, use 10.0.x.x/24 instead.
This command will scan your network for any IP addresses connected to it. The -F gives the console the instruction to use “Fast mode.” If done correctly, you should see something like this:
That’s how your Nmap scan should look like. |
Step 3 : Starting the Man-In-Middle Attrck
Now we’re going to start a man-in-the-middle attack, MITM for short.
An MITM attack is an attack were we spoof our MAC address so that
when a server/responding person sends a message to the other, he won’t
be receiving that message, but he will receive messages that we send, as
we’re the Man in the middle.
This might help you understand:
A man in the middle attack! |
Starting the attack
To start, enter the following command in a NEW terminal window:
To start, enter the following command in a NEW terminal window:
- sudo echo 1 >> /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
This will forward your IP address. Now we’re starting the MITM by opening a NEW terminal window and entering this command:
- sudo arpspoof -i [Interface] -t [target] [default gateway]
If you don’t know your interface and default gateway, start a new terminal and enter: ifconfig.
Open (once again ) a new terminal window and enter the following command:
- sudo arpspoof -i [interface] -t [default gateway] [target]
Another result from the arpspoof! |
Note: After you entered both the arpspoof commands DON’T CLOSE THE TERMINALS.
Step 4 : Firefox and Wireshark (Almost finished)
We need a few more things in order to complete this hack!
First install Firefox,
then Greasemonkey and the cookie injector script. Then, install Wireshark, which you can do by entering this command into a terminal window:
- sudo apt-get install wireshark
After that, open up a Wireshark session (open a terminal and enter sudo Wireshark as
command). Select your interface and start capturing. At the top, you
should see an input box where you can add filters. Now enter this
filter:
- http.cookie contains DATR
Now you should get a list in Wireshark. Search for a cookie that
contains the text GET. Locate it, click on it with the left mouse
button, select copy, select bytes, select printable text only.
Wireshark result. The one you need is in the black circle. |
Now go to Wireshark and go to Facebook. Make sure you’re NOT
logged in. If you are, go to settings and delete all the cookies. Then
go back to the Facebook log-in page, press [ALT]+C, and paste the cookie. Press OK andrefresh the page.
Here you can clearly see the cookie injector script input box. |
If my magic worked, you should see the main Facebook
timeline. If not, then you’ve done something wrong. Check the steps one
again and try again. Don’t Give it up
This hack may seem advanced, but it’s actually really easy. Once you break down all the steps, it’s a piece of cake!
Now that you’ve done this, it should be clear that Facebook security isn’t very strong
