Open the file in Wireshark. Filter the traffic using pptp or gre (Generic Routing Encapsulation). You will see the control channel setup (TCP port 1723) followed by GRE packets carrying the encapsulated PPP data.
: The client sends its username and a hashed response (NT-Response). Success/Failure : Confirms if the credentials were correct. vpn-jantit-pptp
The challenge provides a PCAP file containing traffic from a PPTP VPN connection. PPTP is an older VPN protocol known for security vulnerabilities, particularly in its authentication phase, which often uses MS-CHAPv2. Step-by-Step Analysis Open the file in Wireshark
Look for the MS-CHAPv2 authentication sequence. In Wireshark, you can filter for ppp.protocol == 0xc223 . You are looking for three specific packets: Challenge : The server sends a random nonce to the client. : The client sends its username and a
To crack the password, you need to extract the following fields from the "Response" packet:
The format for Hashcat (Mode 5500) is: $NETCHAPV2$username$challenge$response . Alternatively, use asleap specifically designed for PPTP: asleap -r capture.pcap -w wordlist.txt Use code with caution. Copied to clipboard Key Vulnerabilities
