pytacle – alpha2

Its been a long time, since i released the last version of pytacle, but now the time has come. Here is alpha2 with some new features:

– Support of RTLSDR sticks
– Possibility to scan for cells around you
– Changed the code to generate real KCs (but as nobody noticed the wrong KCs i guess you were good with the others 😉

Im also planning to address hopping channels in the future, but ive not made it far enough in my DSP lecture, yet 😉

Find the new version here.
Also see this post for requirements.

cheers

pytacle preview

Hi,

today I’ll give a short preview of my newest tool, pytacle. It is simply a little helper program to control gnuradio/airprobe/kraken/some_other_tools, convert their input/output and to find a use able clear/cipher text combination to break A5/1. In the end it should record, crack and decode/play a gsm phone call with ~5 mouse clicks.

Take a look at this video:

The code is not available yet, as its not finished 😉 the recording and cracking part are working, but the decoding doesn’t. I need to put some more time into the code, but there isn’t much spare in that time of the year 😀

cheers
