Abstract
Tato práce analyzuje princip útoku KRACK a navrhuje metody jeho detekce. Kromě toho se práce zabývá návrhem, implementací a testováním systému pro detekci útoku KRACK proti čtyřcestnému handshaku v reálném čase. V analytické části práce jsou nejprve představeny relevantní části standardu 802.11, na které je útok zaměřen. Poté je popsán princip útoku, jeho praktické dopady a protiopatření. Jsou zmapovány dostupné nástroje pro detekci zranitelnosti zařízení k tomuto útoku. Práce se zvlášť zaměřuje na útok proti čtyřcestnému handshaku a analyzuje provoz generovaný během tohoto útoku. Ten je poté srovnán se standardním provozem na síti během čtyřcestného handshaku. Na základě monitorovaného provozu a také analytické části práce jsou pak navrženy charakteristiky k detekci útoků KRACK. Systém pro detekci útoku proti čtyřcestnému handshaku je navržen, implementován a úspěšně otestován.
This thesis analyzes the KRACK attack principle and proposes methods of its detection. Also, it deals with the design, implementation, and testing of a system for detection of the KRACK attack against the 4-way handshake in real-time. In the analytical part of the thesis, first, there are introduced relevant parts of the 802.11 standard which are the target of the attack. Then, the principle of the attack is described, its practical impact and countermeasures. Besides, we map available tools for the detection of device vulnerability to this attack. The thesis is mainly focused on the attack on the 4-way handshake and analyzes the traffic generated during this attack. This malicious traffic is then compared to the standard traffic generated during the 4-way handshake. Based on the monitored traffic and analysis part of the thesis, characteristics for detection of the KRACK attacks are proposed. A system for detection of the 4-way handshake is designed, implemented and successfully tested.
