are laptops usually really bad from certain directions with wifi?
if i spin around in my chair the speed changes a LOT
for a wireless access point in the same room.
like where it was resting is 34MB/secish, somewhere magical was 50+MB/sec, and while spinning it got down to under 2MB/sec..
and got like 20MB/sec at one place.
So very dependent on thge ibdividual kaptop, and specvifixasllt the antenna design
sry abt typos, tablket ssh
i thought my typing was bad :)
yeah i suspect it's antenna design, i hadn't really paid attention to it before
most put a vert omni in the lid
along the edges
if its in the base, or possibnly behind the lcd, you will see bad behaviour
also if the asnt is not attascvhed, has becvome disconn from the card etc
*ant
ahh so that could mean that 180 degrees totally changes performance
If it's 11n with the MIMO multiple antenna stuff on both laptop and AP end then it /should/ be immune from that
sh1t - does anyone have a good read on breaking out of freebsd jails on an older 10 box?
locked myself inside my jail and forgotten the hosts root password and have no other means of getting it
well, i has root in the jail - but the usual tricks leave me with a useless shell
ugh.. on a plus side, the opensshd running on host is vulnerable to KbdInteractiveDevices - so i shoud be able to crack it in a few hours
(and who says using keyboard interactive only is bad) :D
thankyou kingcope
cd

ops
plett: 802.11ac so that should do mimo?
802.11g can'd do 300+ megabit/sec
grody: can't you just reboot it ?
mercutio, boot -s would fail, ttys are all set to insecure
i know roughly what the password should be, but it's in what concatination i used
boot off rescue media
no physical access, no oob/vnc
crackers must be very patient people is all i can say
ahh, well you should probably get one of those things for cases like this heh
i swore i backdoored it tbh, but the only thing open on the host is sshd
Didn't FreeBSD have an sshd exploit a month back? Did you patch for that already?
yea im usiing that to brute password
well, dictionary
and you have PermitRootLogin set to yes?
nope
just keyboard auth
so how are you going to get root?
if my maths are right, this should be done in about 17 hours
user has sudo access
cant get any access to host sshd, only the jails
ah
only wanted to pull a pdf i had stored on the user homedir too
just hope sshd doesn't bail out
then i will have to somehow force a reboot, which im not sure how i'll managed
or a better sysadmin that backups up their data and has OOB management :p
haha :P
in my defense, the whole point of this rig was remote access only, else no dice - does geli too, but that could be easily .... hmmm, you just made me realise - if i can force a reboot, i can get access to it's limited shell
thats the backdoor
im petty damned sure i can cause a kernel panic within the jail
my screen has the stack vuln
