Today I am going to teach you how to easily hack WPA/WPA2-PSK enabled network using reaver. But, for that the targeted router should support WPS(WiFi Protected Setup) which is supported by most of the router nowadays. WPS is an optional device configuration protocol for wireless access points which make it really easier to connect.
This feature exist in most of the router for the easy setup process through the WPS pin which is hard-coded into the wireless access point. Reaver takes the advantage of a vulnerability in WPS. Thanks to Craig Heffner for releasing an open-source version of this tool named Reaver that exploits the vulnerability. In simple tone, Reaver tries to bruteforce the pin; which in result reveal WPA or WPA2 password after enough time.
