pwnagotchi tft display for sale

This fully assembled and keychain-ready pwnagotchi is an A2C-based "AI" leveraging bettercap that learns from its surrounding WiFi environment to maximize the crackable WPA key material it captures (either passively or by performing authentication and association attacks). This material is collected as PCAP files containing any form of handshake supported by hashcat, including PMKIDs, full and half WPA handshakes. It"ll learn over time and become more intelligent and more able to help you crack the wifi around you. Plus, it"s cute as f**k.

DC207 assembles these to help support its mission and activities of working on unique technology projects, feeding hackers at our meetups, fostering and building a fantastic hacker community in Maine. Our loyal minions will assemble, solder, and print out a colorful case for your pwnagotchi with love. We understand folks might want to get started with projects like these but might not have the initial skills, equipment, or knowledge to execute. We make it simple and easy.

I love Pwnagotchis, I mean, who doesn’t, have you seen these things?? My problem, is that I could not get great reception using the Pi0W built in WiFi. Also, I did not have a compatible E-Ink display for it. My first goal was to see if I could get Pwnagotchi running on a Pi 4 with an Alfa AWUS036NHA Long Range WiFi adapter. My second was to get it to display on an unsupported touchscreen or a full-size monitor.

These are just some personal notes of mine on getting the wickedly cool “Pwnagotchi” to work on a Pi 4 with a long range WiFi adapter. Also, how to access the Web User Interface so you don’t need an “E-Ink” display. This is mostly my work notes that I am sharing – It is a “try at your own risk” project. Due to configuration and network differences, it may or may not work for you and could leave your Pi software in an unstable state.

Pwnagotchis are the ridiculously cute (and intelligent) Pi0w based WiFi attack tool made by the author of Bettercap. I recently wrote a magazine article for Hakin9 on using the Bettercap Web UI and Pwnagotchis. The Web UI is an HTML interface to Bettercap, it allows you to control it through a browser.

Again, this is just some notes that helped me get this working, use at your own risk. Enough intro, let’s get to this! First up, running Pwnagotchi on a Pi4.

With the current version of Pwnagotchi (1.4.1) it seems to boot up fine on a Pi4, but doesn’t run. It doesn’t seem to like the default waveshare display type -if you don’t have one, that is – changing this to “inkyphat” seems to do the trick.

Next, I wanted to use an external USB WiFi adapter instead of the built in one. Instead of modifying a bunch of config files in Pwnagotchi, the simplest way seemed to be to just turn off the onboard wireless, so the USB WiFi becomes “wlan0”

That is all well and good, but how can you run Pwnagotchi on a display that isn’t directly supported? I spent several days trying to get my Raspberry Pi 7” touchscreen to work with Pwnagotchi and did find a way to make it work. It’s more of a trick than anything, it is just running the Web UI in a full screen browser!

Again, proceed at your own risk, and I am not offering any technical support on how to do this – it took a lot of futzing to get this to work on mine, and it may not work on yours, or it may leave your Pi in an unstable software state. But I found if you install the Pwnagotchi Raspbian Lite image on a Pi 4, get it working with the modifications mentioned above, all you need to do next is install the Raspbian Graphical User interface and Chromium, and you can view Pwnagotchi locally on any display!

You won’t be able to get out to the internet, because Pwnagotchi changes the default Route, so we need to delete the default route, then add a new route to your gateway/ router. You can then pull down the files needed with “apt install”.

Once it reboots, start Chromium, navigate to the Pwnagotchi web interface and press “F11” for full screen. That’s it! If all went well, you should have a large Pwnagotchi on the screen!

This was just a quick overview of running Pwnagotchi on a Raspberry Pi 4. Do you want to unlock the real power of Pi for Ethical Hacking? Check out my latest book, “Security Testing with Raspberry Pi” – available on Amazon.com!

The “vanilla” hardware setup for a Pwnagotchi is a Raspberry Pi 0 W (usually referred to as RPi0W throughout this documentation). Most development and testing has been conducted on Pwnagotchis living in RPi0W bodies configured as an USB ethernet gadget device (in order to connect to it via USB). That said:

In fact, technically ANY GNU/Linux computer with a WiFi interface that supports monitor mode could be used to host a Pwnagotchi—given the appropriate configuration tweaks.

If you’re going to be taking your Pwnagotchi out into the world to find new and exciting WiFi environments (!), you’re going to need to power it with an external battery. Depending on your priorities, you may only need a small battery if you’re just going to be out for a couple hours. But if you’re going to be out all day, you might need something bigger. How do you know what you’ll need to keep your Pwnagotchi pwning?

Happily, our users have submitted some preliminary benchmarks using some popular batteries to help give you a sense for how long a particular battery is likely to be able to power your Pwnagotchi when you take it out into the WiFi wilderness. :)

If you want to use the web UI (instead of an e-ink display attached to your unit"s RPi0W) to see your Pwnagotchi"s face, check out the web UI doc for more details on using the web UI.

Before purchasing a display, see Recommendations for more details about choosing the right display. If you find yourself struggling with the screen you’ve chosen, there are dedicated #waveshare and #inky channels for troubleshooting in the Pwnagotchi Slack.

Not all displays are created equally! TFT displays, for example, work similar to an HDMI display, and they are NOT supported. Currently, all the officially-supported eInk displays are SPI displays. If you are still interested in using unsupported displays, you may be able to find a community-submitted hack in the Screens section of the Hacks page. We are not responsible for anything you break by trying to use any display that is not officially supported by the development team!

Some of the supported displays support both Black & White and Colored versions. One common question whether there are meaningful differences between the two. There are:

Color displays have a much slower refresh rate. In some cases, it can take up to 15 seconds; if slow refresh rates are something that you want to avoid, we recommend you use B&W displays.

will always have the most updated and best supported UI elements; Pwnagotchi’s primary developer (@evilsocket) will be testing new features exclusively on Waveshare V2s.

Avoid the Waveshare eInk 3-color display. The refresh time is 15 seconds. It can be over-driven much faster with a slight risk of burn-in by setting the color to ‘fastAndFurious’, which brings the refresh down to about 1 second. This might damage the display, so use it only if you understand the risk.

The Pimoroni Inky pHAT has a refresh time of several seconds. An update is available to lower the refresh time to sub-second, though increasing the risk of burn-in or artifacts by setting the color to ‘fastAndFurious’ This might damage the display, so use it only if you understand the risk.

The DFRobot display has partial refresh support, two hardware GPIO buttons, as well as a passthrough header for connecting other things, like serial GPS modules, RTCs, LEDs, etc.

We recommend housing your Pwnagotchi’s body in a case if you don’t want your Pwnagotchi to get dirty (or short the GPIO pins on the back, or be mistaken for a bomb…).

If you’re running your Pwnagotchi in headless mode (AKA without a screen) and are using its web UI instead of an e-ink screen, any generic case for a RPi0W ought to do the trick. But if you’ve installed an e-ink screen on your RPi0W in order to view your Pwnagotchi’s face without any external equipment, you’ll probably need to make or acquire a custom case.

@ohaithear’s 10 Pwnagotchi Cases is a collection of cases for all popular Pwnagotchi configurations: Waveshare and Inky screens, slimagotchi builds, PiSugar external battery, and an optional carabiner loop.

@elkentaro’s Pwnagotchi case on Thingiverse for use with a Raspberry Pi 0 and a Waveshare e-ink screen. There is 71.5x34x20mm available for the acrylic plate on the 3D printed model. (MK3S, PET, 0.25mm extruder, 0.15mm layer height.)

@3MUl0R’s Pwnagotchi case for RPi0W with Inky pHAT is the only case (that we are aware of) designed to fit the RPi0Ws fitted with the Inky pHAT e-ink display.

Once you have downloaded the latest Pwnagotchi image, you will need to use an image writing tool to install that image on your SD card. We recommend using balenaEtcher, a graphical SD card writing tool that works on Mac OS, Linux, and Windows; it is the easiest option for most users. (balenaEtcher also supports writing images directly from the ZIP file, without any unzipping required!)

Depending on the name of the WiFi interface you’re going to use, you’ll need to edit the /usr/local/share/bettercap/caplets/pwnagotchi-auto.cap and /usr/local/share/bettercap/caplets/pwnagotchi-manual.cap caplet files accordingly.

How to run bettercap and in which mode it’s up to you as long as it’s running one of those two caplets. In the default Pwnagotchi image bettercap is running as a systemd service through a launcher script.

ExecStart=/usr/bin/pwngrid -keys /etc/pwnagotchi -address 127.0.0.1:8666 -client-token /root/.api-enrollment.json -wait -log /var/log/pwngrid-peer.log -iface mon0

This will install the default configuration file in /etc/pwnagotchi/default.toml, in order to apply customizations you’ll need to create a new /etc/pwnagotchi/config.toml file as explained in the configuration section.

having an ethernet port allows you an easier connection to the booted system. Just connect a cable to the port and Pwnagotchi get an IP address with DHCP. If a plugged ethernet cable is detected on boot it will start in MANU mode;
