The setup procedures described in this document are based on the following references:

• WiFi Pineapple Mark V with Burp Proxy
• Run mitmproxy on Raspberry Pi
• Blog post: Raspberry Pineapple

• Wi-Fi Pineapple Mark V (WP-5)
• Raspberry Pi 3 (RPI-3) running Raspbian Linux distro
• mitmproxy, version 0.18.2, with python 2.7 on Raspbian.

Generally speaking, follow the instructions in this video: Linux Internet Connection Sharing - WiFi Pineapple Mark V - Pineapple University. On the RPI-3, wlan0 is the interface to the Internet, eth0 is the interface (wired) to the WP-5; the internet connection will be shared by the RPI-3 from wlan0 to eth0 to serve the WP-5.

Download the script that configures iptables rules and executes it (no MITM proxy yet).

wget https://www.wifipineapple.com/wp5.sh
chmod u+x wp5.sh
sudo ./wp5.sh

It is usually safe to keep all default settings, except for the "Internet Gateway" IP address, which shall be set as wlan0's corresponding gateway address (e.g., 192.168.0.1. Run ifconfig beforehand to find out the info). Now visit http://172.16.42.1:1471 to configure the WP-5. Once the WP-5 is configured, for example, turn on "PineAP" for some fun.

For example, to intercept all HTTP traffic through the WP-5, do

sudo tcpdump -A -s 0 -i eth0 -w http_dump.pcap tcp port http

Here,

• -A means ouput in ASCII
• -s 0 means output all payload content
• -i eth0 means capture packets on eth0 interface
• -w http_dump.pcap sets the output dump file
• tcp port http means capture only HTTP packets

Once enough data has been collected, use Wireshark or foremost to analyze the pcap dump: http_dump.pcap.

1. Install mitmproxy on RPI-3 (use python 2 for example)

   sudo aptitude install python-setuptools python-dev build-essential
   sudo easy_install pip
   sudo pip install mitmproxy==0.18.2

2. Run the modified WP-5 configuration script wp5_mitmproxy.sh to add port forwarding rules (from 80 and 443 to 8080, the port mitmproxy listens on by default).

   cd src/
   sudo ./wp5_mitmproxy.sh

   Do a diff wp5.sh wp5_mitmproxy.sh to see the added rules for NAT port forwarding.

3. Run mitmproxy and mitmdump.

   mitmproxy -T --host

   You can watch the HTTP traffic from the console.

   mitmdump -T -s hacked.py

   This will intercept the HTTP response, and add "HACKED!!!" text at the bottom of the page.
