Help to install dsniff and/or arpspoof on Pineapple cloner

[blackrosevn]

Hello there,

I would like to ask if someone can help and guide me how to install the arpspoof and/or dsniff on the Pineapple cloner.

I did try and find on the internet but could not find a way.

Here is the error message:

**Unknown package 'arpspoof'.
Collected errors:

• opkg_install_cmd: Cannot install package arpspoof**

Thanks

If you run opkg update before and it doesn't install them, then they are not in any of the download repos.
If so you have to find the apk and install it manually.

I have 2 routers: one is with mips_24kc, and they are in default repos to install. But the other one with mipsel_24kc (Xiaomi R3G), they do not have in the repos, even I have been trying to find a lot of time on Google, but it seems nothing for this mipsel_24k.

Can you help to include an ipk in the repos or show me a link to download that ipk?

Thanks

None of them mention who maintains them, so I guess they were compiled by hak5.
At worst you would have to find the sources and compile it for openwrt 19.

After searching I realised that the Devices I have are mipsel_24kc without repos support for dsniff and arpspoof (what you shared is for mips_24kc).

So I bought a Mikrotik RB951G-2HND - mips_24kc, then I am going to build the cloner firmware for this device. But it seems my device is not yet added to your support code.

Could you please guide me how build with the sample command "tools/builder.sh mips universal imagebuilder/19.07.7-ar71xx-generic gl-ar750s" => Which code for my device instead of gl-ar750s?

[xchwarze]

I checked and it's not in the "generic" variant because apparently it's a separate variant.
https://mirror-01.infra.openwrt.org/releases/19.07.7/targets/ar71xx/

You should add that new variant in the supported variant array, its name would be "ar71xx-mikrotik"
https://github.com/xchwarze/wifi-pineapple-cloner/blob/master/tools/dependencies-install.sh#L7

And the profile name should be vmlinux (I haven't downloaded that imagebuilder, if you want to attach what make info returns so I can see what values are there).
Remember to follow the steps in the OpenWrt manual and convert the router to the OpenWrt platform first: https://openwrt.org/toh/mikrotik/rb951g_2hnd

[blackrosevn]

Thank you @xchwarze !

I finally can generate the firmware for my device following your comments.

[xchwarze]

@blackrosevn whats is the profile name? vmlinux?

[blackrosevn]

I chose nand-large as my device has 128MB flash.

[th3cha1rman]

@blackrosevn did it work?

Installing dsniff/arpspoof on a Pineapple cloner can be tricky due to OpenWrt package availability. Here is how:

Method 1: opkg (if available)

opkg update
opkg install dsniff

If dsniff is not in the default feeds, you may need to add the full OpenWrt package repository.

Method 2: Cross-compile from source

If opkg does not have dsniff:

# On your build machine (not the router)
git clone https://github.com/openwrt/packages
# Find dsniff in net/dsniff
# Build with the OpenWrt SDK matching your router architecture

Method 3: Use ettercap instead

Ettercap is often easier to get running on OpenWrt and does everything arpspoof does plus more:

opkg update
opkg install ettercap
# ARP poisoning
ettercap -T -M arp:remote /target_ip// /gateway_ip//

Method 4: Manual arpspoof with arping

If you just need basic ARP spoofing:

# Install arping
opkg install iputils-arping

# Manual ARP poison (basic script)
while true; do
  arping -U -I br-lan -s <gateway_ip> <target_ip>
  sleep 1
done

Important

• Enable IP forwarding: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
• These tools are for authorized security testing only
• I maintain ARP spoofing payloads for the Pineapple if you want a ready-made solution
