# Mark VIII
|
|
|
|
A Mark VII-style web management UI that runs **on the WiFi Pineapple Pager** at
|
|
`http://172.16.52.1:8080/`. Packaged as a native Pager payload.
|
|
|
|
Features: Dashboard (live), PineAP (settings, SSID pool, filters, clients/kick),
|
|
Recon (scans from `recon.db`), Handshakes/Loot, Payloads (embedded stock Pager
|
|
Portal), Logs, Settings (hostname/NTP/password/prefs), and a bottom-docked xterm
|
|
terminal.
|
|
|
|
- Rogue AP on the second radio (5GHz / 6GHz Wi-Fi 6E): Open AP and Evil WPA
|
|
(WPA2-PSK/WPA3-SAE/WPA3-OWE) on `radio1`, band-aware channel pickers,
|
|
6GHz requires WPA3. While a radio1 AP is enabled the stock monitor-hopping
|
|
(`wlan1mon`) is paused and resumed on disable; 2.4GHz PineAP is untouched.
|
|
|
|
## Requirements
|
|
|
|
- WiFi Pineapple Pager, firmware `Pineapple Pager 24.10.1`
|
|
- `python3` on the device (present on current firmware)
|
|
- Python 3.11 on the development machine
|
|
|
|
## Install (sideload)
|
|
|
|
macOS/Linux:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Recommended: key authentication
|
|
./scripts/deploy.sh --ssh-key "$HOME/.ssh/pager_key"
|
|
|
|
# Password authentication requires sshpass
|
|
brew install hudochenkov/sshpass/sshpass
|
|
./scripts/deploy.sh --password '<device-password>'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Windows:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
# deploy.ps1 needs either an SSH key or sshpass for password auth:
|
|
& .\scripts\deploy.ps1 -SshKey "$HOME\.ssh\pager_key"
|
|
# or set up a key and add it: ssh-copy-id root@172.16.52.1
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The deployment scripts build `build/pager-webui/payload-<b64>.zip`, upload it,
|
|
extract it to `/root/payloads/user/remote_access/pager-webui/`, and refresh the
|
|
portal index.
|
|
|
|
Then on the Pager menu, run **Mark VIII**:
|
|
- **Yes** to "Run as background service?" -> procd service (respawns on crash,
|
|
boot-persistent via rc.d symlinks).
|
|
- **No** -> foreground mode; press **B** to stop.
|
|
- Re-run the payload while running to **Stop** the service.
|
|
- `PAYLOAD_GET_CONFIG pager_webui auto_mode/run_mode` skip the prompt.
|
|
|
|
Browse `http://172.16.52.1:8080/` and log in with the device password.
|
|
|
|
## Uninstall / recovery
|
|
|
|
Re-run the payload and confirm "Stop service?" (stops, disables, removes the
|
|
init script), then delete the payload directory via the portal or:
|
|
`rm -rf /root/payloads/user/remote_access/pager-webui`. No stock files are modified.
|
|
After a **firmware upgrade** (which wipes the overlay), reinstall and run the
|
|
payload to re-enable it—the same caveat as Nautilus.
|
|
|
|
## Local dev loop
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
.\scripts\deploy.ps1 -SshKey "$HOME\.ssh\pager_key" # deploy backend once
|
|
.\scripts\dev.ps1 -Tunnel # local SPA + API proxy
|
|
# open http://127.0.0.1:8000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`dev.ps1` serves `www/` locally, proxies `/api/*` to the Pager, and points the
|
|
terminal at the Pager's daemon WS (`-Tunnel` opens the `:1471` SSH tunnel).
|
|
The live WebSocket falls back to 5s polling through the dev proxy.
|
|
|
|
## API tests
|
|
|
|
Python unit tests (stdlib `unittest`, runnable on Windows with mocks). Run each
|
|
module in its own process—the tests monkeypatch module-level helpers and do not
|
|
restore them, so a single `discover` process leaks state between files:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
$py = "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Programs\Python\Python311\python.exe"
|
|
Get-ChildItem tests\test_*.py | ForEach-Object {
|
|
$mod = "tests." + [IO.Path]::GetFileNameWithoutExtension($_.Name)
|
|
& $py -m unittest $mod -v
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
On-device smoke tests cover every page, background vs foreground,
|
|
terminal I/O, and reboot persistence.
|
|
|
|
## Architecture
|
|
|
|
- `server.py` — Mark VIII's pure-socket HTTP + JSON API + minimal RFC6455 WS on
|
|
`0.0.0.0:8080`, written to run on the device's `python3-light` (no
|
|
`urllib`/`http.server`/`sqlite3` stdlib modules there); talks to the Hak5
|
|
daemon (`127.0.0.1:1471`) over a raw-socket HTTP client, `hak5cmd`,
|
|
`uci`, `iwinfo`, and `recon.db` read-only (via the `sqlite3` CLI).
|
|
- `www/` — vanilla JS SPA (no build step) + bundled xterm.js.
|
|
- `payload.sh` + `pagerwebui.init` — Nautilus-style installer / procd service.
|
|
|
|
## Stability notes (Pager 24.10.1)
|
|
|
|
pineapd crash sources found and fixed on this firmware (verified on-device,
|
|
zero crashes over sustained watches):
|
|
|
|
1. **SSID-pool broadcast** — segfaults pineapd (~15s cadence). Kept disabled.
|
|
2. **wlan2mon** — a 6GHz monitor this hardware never creates; hopping the
|
|
missing iface segfaults pineapd. Disabled.
|
|
3. **Large refilled pool** — the pool list itself crashes pineapd even with
|
|
broadcast disabled. The health monitor clears it (collect refills).
|
|
4. **wlan1mon fast-hopping 6GHz** — stalls pineapd's command socket; the
|
|
stock daemon's watchdog then SIGTERMs pineapd every ~30s. Bands pinned
|
|
to 5GHz (2.4GHz only on wlan0mon).
|
|
5. **Socket collisions** — actively pinging pineapd from a health monitor
|
|
collides with the stock daemon's own socket writes. The monitor now
|
|
checks `pidof` only.
|
|
|
|
`GET /api/health` reports pineapd/monitor state; the top bar shows a
|
|
PINEAP OK / POOL OFF / PINEAPD DOWN chip.
|
|
|
|
## Security notes
|
|
|
|
- Auth via device password validated against the daemon; HttpOnly session
|
|
cookie `AUTH_<serverid>`; all state-changing endpoints gated.
|
|
- Commands run with argument lists (no shell interpolation).
|
|
- Binds `0.0.0.0:8080` — same exposure class as the stock `:1471`/`:7681`.
|
|
- Same-origin validation protects browser writes and WebSocket upgrades; the
|
|
daemon token is stored in a root-only temporary session file.
|
|
|
|
## Out of scope (v1)
|
|
|
|
`:1471` takeover, Mark VII-only features (Campaigns/Modules/Cloud C2/EAP),
|
|
physical-display mirroring, and a PR to `hak5/wifipineapplepager-payloads`
|
|
(packaging is drop-in ready for that PR).
