How to crash a pc network
Posted in tricks
I would like to release this simple tutorial onto how
to crash a PC based network. This exploit will work on 90% of networks.
If the network of Windows computers connected are vulnerable they will
consume 100% CPU usage and then become unresponsive. Now how to check if
a network is vulnerable.
Press Windows Key + R on your keyboard and type "cmd" then press enter. Once inside command prompt type the following command.
Code:
ipconfig
Then look at your results. If your results including something along the lines of "IPv6 Address" the network is vulnerable. 90% of network are currently vulnerable to this.
How to take out the network
1> Boot into Backtrack 5 R3 and connect to the network
2> Run this command
Code:
iwconfig
look at which adapter comes up with connections. It will most likely be eth0 or wlan0.
3> Prepare for attack. Type the following command and leave it running for however long you want the computers to remain unusable. Please do not use this for malicious purposes, this tutorial is to learn how to better protect yourself. The command to initiate the attack is
Code:
flood_router6 <network adapter you found earlier>
My code to launch an attack was
Code:
flood_router6 eth0
All Windows machines above XP including Vista, 7, 8 and SERVER can be attacked with this!
How to protect yourself!
A quick fix to protect yourself, disable IPv6 on your computer! Do this until a stable protocol has been established!
Thanks for reading, good luck to all in protecting yourself.
