Hello friends. We have been talking about Cookie stealing since last few days. As I said in my previous article Cookie Stealing to hack Email account, Wireshark is the best free packet sniffer software ever made. So, I am posting this Wireshark tutorial to help you in capturing victim packets using this free packet sniffer software. So, download Wireshark and follow this Wireshark tutorial to hack email account.
Wireshark tutorial to capture cookies:
Wireshark is the best free packet sniffer software available today. Actually, it was developed for making a network secure. But, the same software is now used by hackers to test for vulnerability and security loopholes in the network and to attack the network accordingly. Cookie stealing being one of the types of hacks implemented using this Wireshark software.
Below, I have listed steps on how to capture Facebook cookies. This will help you to know how Wireshark can be used to sniff packets and capture cookies.
1. Free download Wireshark software to capture cookies.
Password: techotoys.blogspot.com
2. Install and run this Wireshark application. Go to Capture -> Interface to see all the interfaces to your computer. Select the interface (usually LAN) and hit on Start so that Wireshark will start capturing all the packets on this interface.
Note: You can sniff your own packets by selecting your local interface.
3. You will see all the packets captured by Wireshark on the interface.
4. Now, if you wanna capture Facebook cookies, enter: http.cookie contains “datr” in Filter textbox and hit on Enter. Wireshark will filter all the packets as shown:
Note: If your “Filter” box turns red after pasting the above code in it, please type the code manually in the Filter box. The red issue will be fixed. I guess the issue is caused due to double quote present just before datr. Please correct it. Thanks to hacker2012 for this feedback via comments.
5. Now, look for packet with info “GET/HTTP/1.1″. Right click -> Copy -> Bytes(Printable Text Only). In this step you have successfully copied all the contents of victim Facebook account cookie. Now, its time for injecting this copied or stolen cookie in your own browser so that you can hack victim facebook account.
I will post on how to inject this copied cookie in your browser in my next article.
Update: I have posted on how to inject copied cookie in your browser in my article How to hack Facebook account. Check it out for more help on Cookie stealing.
So friends, this was a short Wireshark tutorial explaining how to use free packet sniffer to capture cookies. I have tried my best to keep this Wireshark tutorial simple. If you find any problem in this Wireshark tutorial, please mention it in comments.
