BTCrack 1.1 - Final version (FPGA support)

Introduction
BTCrack is the worlds first Bluetooth Pass phrase (PIN) bruteforce tool, BTCrack will bruteforce the Passkey and the Link key from captured pairing* exchanges.

To capture the pairing data it is necessary to have a Professional Bluetooth Analyzer : FTE (BPA 100, BPA 105, others), Merlin OR to know how to flash a CSR based consumer USB dongle with special firmware.

Example of an Attack scenario :

Attacker reconstructs BD_ADDR of both Master and Slave through passive (reconstructing through a preamble sniff, even when the device is in hidden mode) or active means (redfang)

Attacker changes his BD_ADDR to the one of the Slave device

Attacker asks to pair with the Master indicating it has no key, the Master will more then often trash the old pairing data and request a new link key from the genuine slave

Attacker now captures the key (pairing) exchange taking place between the two devices as the users try to re-establish a connection

Attacker exports data to CSV format and imports into BTCrack

Attacker can now compromise Master and Slave Bluetooth device through usage of the cracked Linkkey and is able to decrypt the data transmitted between the bluetooth devices

Why the PIN is not so important
An Attacker will focus on recovering the Linkkey and not the PIN, here's why :

The Link-key allows remote connections without the victim noticing

The Link-key allows and attacker to connect to devices in non-pairing mode and non discoverable mode

The Link-key allows decryption of the data

History :
