Can I find out the password entered by users if I distribute wifi using an android device or PC?

Question

Computer networks

If I create a wifi access point using an android device or a PC, can I find out the incorrectly entered password for connecting to this point that the user entered? What software can be used for this? And if I create a point with the name of the network to which the device has already connected, can I find out the password?

Answer 1

All your questions are answered in this book .

Answer 2

It all depends on the authentication protocol.
PLAINTEXT - no one uses it anymore.
Therefore, you can only intercept the session and exchange hashes.
After that - you can try to recover the password by hash, knowing the authentication algorithm.
