Wellenreiter
Wellenreiter, by Max Moser, is a GTK/Perl program that makes the discovery and auditing of 802.11b Wi-Fi wireless networks much easier. All three major wireless cards (Prism2, Lucent, and Cisco) are supported. It has an embedded statistics engine for the common parameters provided by wireless drivers. Its scanner window can be used to discover access-points, networks, and ad-hoc cards. It detects SSID broadcasting or non-broadcasting networks in every channel. The manufacturer and WEP is automaticly detected. A flexible sound event configuration lets you work in unattended environments. An ethereal / tcpdump-compatible dumpfile can be created for the whole session. GPS is used to track the location of the discovered networks immediately. Automatic associating is possible with randomly generated MAC addreses. Wellenreiter can reside on low-resolution devices that can run GTK/Perl and Linux/BSD (such as iPaqs). Uniq Essod-bruteforcer is now included too.
Airsnarf
Airsnarf is a simple rogue wireless access point setup utility designed to demonstrate how a rogue AP can steal usernames and passwords from public Wi-Fi hotspots. Airsnarf was developed and released to demonstrate an inherent vulnerability of public 802.11b hotspots--snarfing usernames and passwords by confusing users with DNS and HTTP redirects from a competing AP.
Hotspotter
Hotspotter passively monitors Wi-Fi networks for probe request frames to identify the preferred networks of Windows XP clients, and will compare it to a supplied list of common hotspot network names. If the probed network name matches a common hotspot name, Hotspotter will act as an access point to allow the client to authenticate and associate. Once associated, Hotspotter can be configured to run a command, possibly a script to kick off a DHCP daemon and other scanning against the new victim.
BSD-Airtools
bsd-airtools is a package that provides a complete toolset for wireless 802.11b auditing. Namely, it currently contains a bsd-based wep cracking application, called dweputils (as well as kernel patches for NetBSD, OpenBSD, and FreeBSD). It also contains a curses based ap detection application similar to netstumbler (dstumbler) that can be used to detect wireless access points and connected nodes, view signal to noise graphs, and interactively scroll through scanned ap's and view statistics for each. It also includes a couple other tools to provide a complete toolset for making use of all 14 of the prism2 debug modes as well as do basic analysis of the hardware-based link-layer protocols provided by prism2's monitor debug mode.

AirFart
AirFart is a wireless tool created to detect Wi-Fi devices, calculate their signal strengths, and present them to the user in an easy-to-understand fashion. It is written in C/C++ with a GTK front end. Airfart supports all wireless network cards supported by the linux-wlan-ng Prism2 driver that provide hardware signal strength information in the "raw signal" format (ssi_type 3). Airfart implements a modular n-tier architecture with the data collection at the bottom tier and a graphical user interface at the top.
AirTraf
AirTraf is one of the first wireless 802.11(b) network analyzers. With the growth of interest in wireless networks, network administrators of today are faced with a challenge. The challenge is to effectively deploy numerous access points within their organization to provide wireless coverage for all users, and at the same time make sure that everyone who is granted access is able to operate in a fast, robust network environment.
AirTraf is a 100% passive packet sniffing tool for the wireless 802.11b networks. It captures and tracks all wireless activity in the coverage area, decodes packets, and maintains acquired information associated by access points, as well as detected individual wireless nodes. It dynamically detects any access points in the area, finds association between wireless clients and access points, and builds information table for each packet that is transmitted via the air. AirTraf is able to maintain packet count, byte information, related bandwidth, as well as signal strength of nodes.
And best of all, its open-source, and distributed under the GPL. Other comparable products that perform wireless network analysis price their products above $10,000 (such as Sniffer Wireless), and is limited to single-licenses of copy, while AirTraf can be installed at any detection location you choose, enabled to run in (Server Mode), and polled periodically via the polling server to retrieve active wireless data from multiple stations at once, resulting in consolidation of wireless information over your entire organization into a single point of access (database), and able to be administered via a web interface, visualizing your wireless network performance in a single glance. At absolutely no cost to you, or your organization.
However, AirTraf is still a work in progress, meaning much of planned features, such as injecting packets into the network to test Access Point security, are not available yet. But it is constantly being worked on, and soon it will prove to be a critical tool in managing healthy wireless networks in the future.

Recovers weak LEAP passwords.
•Can read live from any wireless interface in RFMON mode.
•Can monitor a single channel, or perform channel hopping to look for targets.
•Will actively deauthenticate users on LEAP networks, forcing them to reauthenticate. This makes the capture of LEAP passwords very fast.
•Will only deauth users who have not already been seen, doesn't waste time on users who are not running LEAP.
•Can read from stored libpcap files, or AiroPeek NX files (1.X or 2.X files).
•Uses a dynamic database table and index to make lookups on large files very fast. Reduces the worst-case search time to .0015% as opposed to lookups in a flat file.
•Can write *just* the LEAP exchange information to a libpcap file. This could be used to capture LEAP credentials with a device short on disk space (like an iPaq), and then process the LEAP credentials stored in the libpcap file on a system with more storage resources.
anwrap
anwrap.pl is a wrapper for ancontrol that serves as a Dictionary attack tool against LEAP enabled Cisco Wireless Networks. anwrap traverses a user list and password list attempting authentication and logging the results to a file. anrwap really wrecks havoc on RADIUS calls to NT networks that have lockout policies in place, you have been warned. Tweak the Timeouts, a lengthy LEAP timeout on the Cisco side could make for a very boring afternoon. anwrap was designed to audit authentication strengths before deploying LEAP in a production environment.
WAP Attack

Fake AP
Black Alchemy's Fake AP generates thousands of counterfeit 802.11b access points. Hide in plain sight amongst Fake AP's cacophony of beacon frames. As part of a honeypot or as an instrument of your site security plan, Fake AP confuses Wardrivers, NetStumblers, Script Kiddies, and other undesirables.
macfld
macfld tool utilizes the Linux wireless extensions to generate and set random MAC addresses on a Cisco or patched Lucent (drivers) NIC, eventually filling up the association ID table on a wireless bridge. The IEEE 802.11 specification identifies a max value of 2007 concurrent associations to an IBSS access point, but does not discuss what to do when the AID table is full. I have found that ~250 concurrent associations will cause an access point to restart.
void11
ivoid11 is a free implementation of basic 802.11 attacks:
•deauth (Network DOS) (flood wireless networks with deauthentication packets and spoofed BSSID; authenticated stations will drop their network connections)
•auth (Accesspoint DOS) (flood accesspoints with authentication packets and random stations addresses; some accesspoints will deny any service after some flooding)
•Apple Airport aka "UFO" died after ~60sec flooding for about 15 minutes
•Lucent OR1000 survived with minor problems
•OpenBSD 3.1/3.2 HostAP freezed after some flooding
•Linux HostAP driver survived
(max. 1023 authenticated stations) Wireless Access point Utilities for Unix

All Garmin GPS reveiver with a serial output should be usable, also other GPS receiver which supports NMEA protocol.
airpwn
Airpwn is a tool for generic packet injection on an 802.11 network.
airpwn requires two 802.11b interfaces, one for listening, and another for injecting. It uses a config file with multiple config sections to respond to specific data packets with arbitrary content.
Wifitap
WifiTap allows users to connect to wifi networks using traffic injection. The concept is the same as most "man-in-the-middle" or "monkey-in-the-middle" attacks. For WifiTap to work, another system must have an association with an access point that the WifiTap system wants to pass traffic through.
Benefits of using WifiTap over normal Wifi clients:
•The system running wifitap is not associated with any wireless access point
•The system is not handled by any access point.
