This release brings a ton of improvements. Along with bug fixes for a lot of tools, we have huge improvements under the hood thanks to code cleanup, deduplication, and reorganization of the source code. Build system has been updated (and improved) and now requires autotools 1.14 or higher.

Visible changes and improvements:

  • Airodump-ng now calculates rates for 802.11n/ac AP instead of being limited to 54Mbit
  • WPA3 and OWE detection in Airodump-ng
  • Basic UTF8 support in Airodump-ng
  • PMKID detection in Airodump-ng
  • Signal level is now correctly displayed when reading PCAP with Airodump-ng
  • Airodump-ng can now read PCAP files in realtime
  • Airmon-ng detects a few more network managers and handles the case when avahi keep getting restarted
  • A lot of bug fixes in Aircrack-ng
  • Airdecap-ng can decrypt both directions when WDS is used

Other notable changes:

  • WPE patches updates for HostAPd and freeradius
  • Integration tests: Capture and injection tests for airodump-ng, aireplay-ng, airbase-ng, and others
  • Python 3 support for scripts, while still compatible with Python 2
  • Added security policy
