Look for the MS-CHAPv2 authentication sequence. In Wireshark, you can filter for ppp.protocol == 0xc223 . You are looking for three specific packets: Challenge : The server sends a random nonce to the client.

Open the file in Wireshark. Filter the traffic using pptp or gre (Generic Routing Encapsulation). You will see the control channel setup (TCP port 1723) followed by GRE packets carrying the encapsulated PPP data.

: The 24-byte hashed response sent by the client. vpn-jantit-pptp

This write-up covers the challenge, typically found in CTF (Capture The Flag) competitions or network security labs . The goal is to analyze a network capture file (PCAP) to recover credentials used in a Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) session. Challenge Overview

The format for Hashcat (Mode 5500) is: $NETCHAPV2$username$challenge$response . Alternatively, use asleap specifically designed for PPTP: asleap -r capture.pcap -w wordlist.txt Use code with caution. Copied to clipboard Key Vulnerabilities Look for the MS-CHAPv2 authentication sequence

To crack the password, you need to extract the following fields from the "Response" packet:

: Often visible in the PPP configuration or CHAP response. Peer Challenge : The 16-byte random value from the client. Open the file in Wireshark

: The client sends its username and a hashed response (NT-Response). Success/Failure : Confirms if the credentials were correct.
