-Airolib-ng is a tool for the aircrack-ng suite to store and manage essid and password lists, compute their Pairwise Master Keys (PMKs) and use them in WPA/WPA2 cracking.  The program uses the lightweight SQLite3 database as the storage mechanism which is available on most platforms.  The SQLite3 database was selected taking in consideration platform availability plus management, memory and disk overhead.+Airolib-ng is an aircrack-ng suite tool designed to store and manage essid and password lists, compute their Pairwise Master Keys (PMKs) and use them in WPA/WPA2 cracking.  The program uses the lightweight SQLite3 database as the storage mechanism which is available on most platforms.  The SQLite3 database was selected taking in consideration platform availability plus management, memory and disk overhead.
  
 WPA/WPA2 cracking involves calculating the pairwise master key, from which the private transient key (PTK) is derived.   Using the PTK, we can compute the frame message identity code (MIC) for a given packet and will potentially find the MIC to be identical to the packet's thus the PTK was correct therefore the PMK was correct as well. WPA/WPA2 cracking involves calculating the pairwise master key, from which the private transient key (PTK) is derived.   Using the PTK, we can compute the frame message identity code (MIC) for a given packet and will potentially find the MIC to be identical to the packet's thus the PTK was correct therefore the PMK was correct as well.
  
-Calculating the PMK is very slow since it uses the pbkdf2 algorithm.  Yet the PMK is always the same for a given ESSID and password combination. This allows us to pre-compute the PMK for given combinations and speed up cracking the wpa/wpa2 handshake.  Tests on have shown that using this technique in [[aircrack-ng]] can check more than 30,000 passwords per second using pre-computed PMK tables.+Calculating the PMK is very slow since it uses the pbkdf2 algorithm.  Yet the PMK is always the same for a given ESSID and password combination.

 +
 +
 +
 +==== Using a sample pre-made database ====
 +
 +Another way to test for yourself is to download a pre-made database called [[http://download.aircrack-ng.org/wiki-files/other/passphrases.db|passphrases.db]].  This  file is also located in the test directory of the aircrack-ng sources. Then try this database with the two test WPA/WPA2 files supplied in the test directory of the aircrack-ng sources.  The WPA/WPA2 test files are called "wpa.cap" and "wpa2.eapol.cap".
 +
 +The commands are either of:
 +
 +   aircrack-ng -r passphrases.db wpa.cap
 +   aircrack-ng -r passphrases.db wpa2.eapol.cap
 +
 +This should give you the passphase.  Success indicates that your setup is working correctly.
  
  
 ===== Usage Troubleshooting ===== ===== Usage Troubleshooting =====
  
-Although this is not a usage troublshooting tip, it is a common problem during the compilation of the 1.0dev version.  As a reminder, SQLite must be version 3.3.17 or above.  This is the compile error you receive when your version of SQLite is less then the requirement:+ 
 +==== Enabling Airolib-ng ==== 
 +Airolib-ng is not compiled by default.  To enable compiling, do "make sqlite=true" and "make sqlite=true install"
 + 
 +==== Compile Error ==== 
 +Although this is not a usage troubleshooting tip, it is a common problem during the compilation of the 1.0dev version.  As a reminder, SQLite must be version 3.3.13 or above.  This is the compile error you receive when your version of SQLite is less then the requirement:
  
   gcc -g -W -Wall -Werror -O3 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_REVISION=`../evalrev` -I/usr/local/include -Iinclude -DHAVE_SQLITE   -c -o airolib-ng.o airolib-ng.c   gcc -g -W -Wall -Werror -O3 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_REVISION=`../evalrev` -I/usr/local/include -Iinclude -DHAVE_SQLITE   -c -o airolib-ng.o airolib-ng.c
Line 298: Line 311:
   make: *** [all] Error 2   make: *** [all] Error 2
      
 +==== When is the SQLite patch needed? ====
 +
 +The SQLite patch included with aircrack-ng sources is only needed when compiling under Windows.  It is required to remove some elements which will not compile under windows and are not required.
 +
 +It is not required for linux installations.
 +
 +==== Airolib-ng fails to open or create the database ====
 +
 +On windows only, opening/creating a database doesn't work when airolib-ng is in directories containing special characters like 'ç', 'é', 'è', 'à', ... (directories containing spaces are not affected).
 +
 +The solution is to move airolib-ng and its database in another directory without these special characters.
 +
 +==== "invalid lines ignored" error message ====
 +
 +This error message may occur when importing passwords or ESSIDs.   It is the number of records with invalid passwords or ESSIDs lengths.  The valid lengths are:
 +
 +  * Passwords must have a length of 8 through 63 characters
 +  * ESSIDs must have a length of 1 through 32 characters
 +
 +==== "Quitting aircrack-ng..." error message ====
  
 +If you subsequently run aircrack-ng and only receive "Quitting aircrack-ng..." then the ESSID is missing from the database.  You need to load it plus rerun the batch option.
