Build Your Own USB Hacking Tool With the Wi-Fi Nugget and CircuitPython!

Presented at A New HOPE (2022), July 22, 2022, 12:30 p.m. (180 minutes)

In this USB attack workshop, you’ll learn how hackers compromise computers over USB with techniques like keystroke injection - and even get to try it yourself! Kody and Alex will show you how to write your own “Duckyscript” payloads, and how to load the “RubberNugget” attack software on your S2 Wi-Fi Nugget. In addition to helping you write your own attacks, they will walk you through uploading the beginner-friendly CircuitPython programming language on your Nugget, and even demonstrate an experimental web interface you can use to remotely run your payloads.
