Default password

[simaster99]

Hi has the default password for http://localhost:3000/ui/authentication changed from beef / beef?

as i get invalid username and password.

many thanks

Default credentials are stored in the config.yaml file and are by default beef:beef
Have you modified them?

Hi I have checked this, the user and password are set to beef, i edited this to b, and still the same username and password error. is there a way that this authentication page an be circumvented?

This is on a clean Raspberry Pi, would this have something to do with permissions? Altho the :3000 web server is running okay.

You can use some of the admin UI functionality by enabling the command line console in config.yaml

As for the beef:beef login, try clearing your browser cache and running ./beef -x to clear beef cache.

The PwnBerryPi project might be of assistance: https://github.com/g13net/PwnBerryPi

see if you are running beef behind a proxy server or not, it yes then first make static ip and then start beef. I also faced same error some days back.

[simaster99]

Seems a reinstall fixed it.... thanks anyways!

[ghost]

Ok, I close.

[pvwowk]

I am still getting this issue. I've tried all of the above fixes and nothing has worked. I am using the latest version in Kali.

EDIT: Reinstall fixed this issue.

Dans le fichier de configuration "config.yaml" de beef, modifier dans la partiie permitted_ui configurez cette patie avec votre adresse réseau et non 127.0.0.1

I also have this issue. It was working fine then suddenly would not work. Have checked the config file and it still says beef/beef

[laxman-chaudhary]

try
username:beef
password:beef

[ankitsaini2609]

It's happen because another service is listening on that port(3000). To solve this try

1. netstat -lntup (it will show you services along with the ports which they are using, check which service is running on 3000 port and note it's pid).
2. kill pid (pid = process id that you have noted).
3. restart beef.
   Done!!

stop if started; start beef with -c <path+config.yaml>

look at the config.yaml => probably beef + feeb as password.

Go to your beef-xss directory and run ./beef from terminal you can get new password each session you create below message
[17:36:11][!] Warning: Default username and weak password in use!
[17:36:11] |_ New password for this instance : Blablabla~

Running the beef with Sudo solved for the issue for me.

May i seek guidance? I am experimenting with BeEF. I have changed my credentials and i still get error:incorrect username or password. I've actually looked at multiple of your suggestiongs @bcoles , i am completely stumped. Can i ask for some help?

[bcoles]

@kaegeh

what os, ware you installing from git are you installing using a package manager have you read #1593

[kaegeh]

@bcoles Hey. So i was installing on Kali 2018.1. I read #1593 and followed your suggestion using diff command with the two Gemfile, but it didn't work. I think i had an issue with having 2 different configuration files for beef that were intervening with each other. One which was in /usr/share/beef-xss & the other from git cloning. I ensured user and pass was correct, but i just thought why not use the newest version of Kali. Once i upgraded my Kali, BeeF wouldn't allow me to loging with standard beef/beef. However, when i changed the credentials in the config.yaml file, it worked. Thank you for replying quickly as well!

[thecowmilk]

Hello, I have having a similiar problem, when I launch beef it says that I'm using "Default Credentials" and is asking me to change the password.

The username and password are specified in the BeEF configuration file config.yaml.

In the configuration file "config.yaml" of beef, change the part permitted_ui configure this part with your network address and not 127.0.0.1

[Rethick11]

first: go to the beef-xss dircetory
second: type ls in terminal
third: type leafpad config.yaml

How to edit beef-xss default password

The password is set in the config.yaml configuration file.

Upon successful installation, be sure to read the Configuration page on the wiki for important details on configuring and securing BeEF.

Hey guys I have a question
is there a way to add multiple users?
i tried

credentials:
    user:   "user1" 
    passwd: "something unique and complex"
    
    user:   "user2" 
    passwd: "something unique and complex"

and it didnt work. is this even possible ?

thank you

[khelv]

I used this to solve mine... simply change the password to something else

< nano config.yaml >
username: "beef"
password:"beefs"

ctrl O and enter key to save
ctrl X to exit

You can run your beef now with ./beef

thanks,
this one works for me

[chuckcarne]

what is the link to log into beef?
Plz don't beef me.

[bcoles]

what is the link to log into beef?

BeEF prints the URLs to during startup. BeEF also listens on all interfaces by default, so you can simply use the loopback interface.

http://127.0.0.1:3000/ui/panel

[chuckcarne]

Oh thanks

I'm having an issue logging into beef. It worked before but it doesn't anymore after a reinstall. I have changed the password and username but it's not working anymore. Does anyone have any ideas?

[yntkts555]

I have changed the username and password in the config.yml folder, but when I enter the beef website, it's still wrong, how is this
