Hack Facebook, Twitter accounts Using WI-FI - Anonymous - 09-01-2020

Firesheep is a Firefox plug-in that automates session hijacking attacks over unsecured Wi-Fi networks. The plug-in is essentially a packet sniffer that monitors and analyzes traffic between a Wi-Fi router and end users connecting to the network. Eric Butler, a Seattle-based software developer, created Firesheep and announced its release at the ToorCon hackers’ conference in October 2010.

Firesheep is so user-friendly that anyone using an unsecured Wi-Fi connection can hijack another user’s session.  The default Firesheep database includes 26 popular Web service and social networking sites, including Amazon, Facebook, Google, Twitter, The New York Times and Wordpress. The database can also be customized to include other websites.

Steps:
1.first download firesheep from here
http://codebutler.github.com/firesheep/
[install it in your firefox browser]

2. Once installed it will open a sidebar window into your firefox browser.

3.Now it will show all the people who are connected to unsecured wifi network.Once they login into your facebook or twitteraccount you will get a notification and with a single click you can login into their account.

Here's Firesheep in action

1. Firesheep appears as a sidebar. The attacker just has to connect through an unsecure Wi-Fi network and click "Start Capturing."

2. Firesheep will monitor the network traffic and, when it detects a user connected to a website in the Firesheep database, it will grab cookies and display a list of potential targets.

3. When the list appears, all the attacker has to do is double-click a name to log into the website as that user.

This whole thing work on the technique of cookie hijacking.Once your session cookie is hacked then anybody can login into your account.These cookies can be easily caputered on unsecured wifi network.

The best way to protect yourself from such a hacking trick is to avoid using your facebook or twitter accounts on unsecured wifi networks as it is a security lapse from the websites not on your side.or you can enable safe browsing in facebook just go to account settings!
