Wireless security - Spoof a MAC address using SMAC

Download SMAC from www.klcconsulting.net/smac

SMAC 2.0 allows (Media Access Control) MAC address to be changed for a network adaptor or otherwise known as spoofing the MAC address.

This task demonstrates how to exploit a vulnerability that is present in wireless networks. An attacker could find out a valid MAC address allowed by an access point, spoof the attackers network adapter to use the allowed MAC address and connect to the network.
