How this analysis was created: This summary and feature list were written by an AI model that read the project's README and public documentation pages. Each feature links to the documentation it came from; stars, license and language come straight from the GitHub API. The model does not read the source code, and the analysis is refreshed when the project is re-analysed. Learn more on our About page.

OpenWifi is an open-source implementation of the IEEE 802.11n wireless standard designed for programmable logic. It provides a software-defined radio platform and WiFi baseband processor that implements the physical and MAC layers on FPGA hardware, accompanied by a dedicated wireless driver and toolset for hardware control. The project is distinguished by its deep integration of signal analysis and telemetry, specifically through a framework for capturing channel state information and raw IQ samples. It enables high-precision packet timestamping and cross-layer correlation between physical la
Flipper-Xtreme is a custom firmware for the Flipper Zero that modifies the operating system to unlock additional hardware capabilities and integrate unofficial features. It functions as a hardware protocol manager and a device interface customizer. The firmware includes a Bluetooth keyboard emulator that allows the device to masquerade as a wireless keyboard by spoofing device identities to send payloads. It also features an experience-based leveling system that gates specific animations and system capabilities behind user interaction milestones. The project provides tools for hardware proto
Psychson is a toolset for modifying USB firmware binaries and flashing custom images to specific hardware controller architectures. It provides utilities for dumping, patching, and flashing custom firmware specifically for Phison 2251-03 USB controllers. The software includes a payload injector for embedding HID keystroke scripts into USB firmware to automate inputs on a target machine. It also features a controller flasher for writing modified burner images directly to Phison-based USB hardware. The suite covers firmware management and hardware forensic analysis, including capabilities for
Hijacker is a Wi-Fi security auditing suite designed for scanning wireless networks, capturing traffic, and recovering credentials. It provides a set of tools for detecting nearby access points and clients, intercepting WPA handshakes, and recovering WPA and WEP passwords. The project features a visual security audit interface that allows for the execution of specialized tools without using a command-line terminal. It includes a dedicated WPS pin recovery tool for extracting access point pins using pixie-dust attacks via external adapters. The toolkit covers network reconnaissance, including
