This Hacking Tool Tricks Windows Into Sharing Passwords



Video Summary

Summary

The video discusses the operation of the Responder tool, which exploits the way Windows computers attempt to connect to shared drives on a network. It highlights how Responder can deceive Windows machines into revealing their authentication details.

Key Points

  • Windows computers attempt to join domains and connect to network shared drives.
  • If a shared drive is unreachable, the computer sends a broadcast message to the local subnet.
  • Responder responds to these broadcasts by impersonating the requested drive.
  • The Windows machine provides its username and password in response to Responder’s request for authentication.
  • Passwords are not sent directly; instead, a password hash is transmitted for security.
  • Responder captures the username and password hash, enabling penetration testers or hackers to exploit the credentials.
