Handshake extraction failed! - dowan35 - 12-08-2023
Hello I have this error message when trying to convert a pcap file from a pmkid sniffer (esp32 marauder).
It has multiple eapol lines that should contain the encoded wifi password in it so I don't know why it doesn't work, thanks for your help !

Information: limited dump file format detected!
This file format is a very basic format to save captured network data.
It is recommended to use PCAP Next Generation dump file format (or pcapng for short) instead.
The PCAP Next Generation dump file format is an attempt to overcome the limitations
of the currently widely used (but very limited) libpcap (cap, pcap) format.

Information: radiotap header is missing!
Radiotap is a de facto standard for 802.11 frame injection and
reception. The radiotap header format is a mechanism to supply
additional information about frames, rom the driver to userspace
applications.

These is the important information:
Code:
EAPOL M1 messages (total)................: 174
EAPOL M3 messages (total)................: 3The EAPOL M1 doesn't contain a PMKID and an EAPOL M2 (from the CLIENT) is missing.
As a result there is nthing that can be converted to a hash file hascat can work on.
Convert this example:

from here:
https://wiki.wireshark.org/SampleCaptures
Compare the status output to your's and you know what I mean.

So it's probably my sniffer that doesn't record all the essential data ?

Maybe. From what I have read here, the tool does only DEAUTHENTICATION attacks and it doesn't detect a packet loss during reception.
Hcxpcapngtool (no tool) can bring back lost packets.

Hi mate, i have the same problem with you.
What did you do and worked?
Please help me, i tried 2-3 different networks and i have same problem to all
RE: Handshake extraction failed! - ZerBea - 09-05-2024
If you don't have an EAPOL M1 or an EAPOL M3, the target AP is not in range.
Regardless of the RSSI value get closer to the target AP.
If you don't have an EAPOL M2 or an EAPOL M4, the target CLIENT is not in range.
Regardless of the RSSI value get closer to the target CLIENT.
To avoid this (make sure you get all information hashcat/JtR need to recover the PSK), use an interactive attack tool that is able to detect this and to request missing frames.
Please take a look at the adapter tests:

The entire procedure to attack the test target is explained.
