Wijaya)** [@HerwonoWr](https://twitter.com/HerwonoWr), this project based upon the awesome work of (Stefan Kremser) [@spacehuhn](https://github.com/spacehuhn), (Sam Denty) [@samdenty99](https://github.com/samdenty99), and other [contributors](#credits). This project is a proof of concept for testing and educational purposes.\n\nCatchME allows you to perform deauth attack, beacon, probe request flooding, and WiFi sniffing. CatchME (deauth attack) works by exploiting an old and known (deauth attack) vulnerability in the 802.11 WiFi protocol. CatchME also allows you to detect Deauth Attack.\n\n**CatchME** has two operation mode, **Attack Mode** and **Detector Mode**, Detector Mode allows you to detect Deauth Attack.\n\n**WARNING**\n\nUse it only against your own networks and devices!. I don't take any responsibility for what you do with CatchME.\n\nPlease check the legal regulations in your country before using it. Do not redistribute, advertise or sell of this software as **\"jammer\"**!.\n\n# Features\n- Fully web based UI management\n- WiFi client mode - access CatchME on the WiFi network\n- Deauth attack, beacon, probe request flooding, and WiFi sniffing\n- Attack mode and detector mode for deauth attack\n- ESP8266 system info\n- Double reset press button - factory default configurations\n- Flash button - attack mode\n- OTA update\n\n# Installing and Updating\nIn order to install the firmware, you can use one of the following installation methods. Using **NodeMCU Flasher** or **Arduino IDE**, and for updating the firmware, you can use either **NodeMCU Flasher**, **Arduino IDE**, and **CatchME UI**. The **NodeMCU Flasher** method is easier overall but using **Arduino IDE** is better for debugging.\n\nFor the first time firmware installation, use **NodeMCU Flasher** or **Arduino IDE**. **CatchME UI** method is only can be use for updating the firmware.\n\n**YOU ONLY NEED TO DO ONE OF THE INSTALLATION METHODS!**\n\n#### Requirements\n- ESP8266 Module\n- ESP8266 Core library, must be version 2.0.0!\n- ESP8266 Patch library\n- ESP8266 Driver\n    - Windows Users\n\n        |CP210x|CH34x|\n        |:---:|:---:|\n        |[Download](Tools/drivers/CP210x.zip)|[Download](Tools/drivers/CH34x.zip)|\n    - MacOS Users\n        \n        For the MacOS you can install driver using `brew`\n        ```\n        brew tap caskroom/drivers\n        brew cask install silicon-labs-vcp-driver\n        ```\n\nESP8266 board variants:\n\n|CP210x|CH34x|\n|:---:|:---:|\n|\u003cimg src=\"Tools/assets/boards/CP210x-board.png\" height=\"200px\"\u003e|\u003cimg src=\"Tools/assets/boards/CH34x-board.png\" height=\"200px\"\u003e|\n\n### Using NodeMCU Flasher\n1. [Download](https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-flasher/raw/master/Win64/Release/ESP8266Flasher.exe) **NodeMCU Flasher**\n2. [Download](https://github.com/HerwonoWr/CatchME/releases) the current firmware release (binary version)\n3. Upload the firmware `.bin` file using **NodeMCU Flasher**\n4. Connect your ESP8266 (making sure the correct drivers are installed) and open up the **NodeMCU Flasher**\n5. Go to the `Advanced` tab and select the correct values for your board\n6. Navigate to the `config` tab and click the gear icon for the first entry\n7. Browse for the `.bin` file you just downloaded and click open\n8. Switch back to the `Operation` tab and click \u003ckbd\u003eFlash(F)\u003c/kbd\u003e\n\n*Note: This guide is for Windows users*\n\n### Using Arduino IDE\n1. [Download](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Main/Software) and install **Arduino IDE**\n2. [Download](https://github.com/HerwonoWr/CatchME/releases) the current firmware release (source version)\n3. MacOS Users\n    - Go to `Arduino` \u003e `Preferences`\n    - Add `http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json` to the **Additional Boards Manager URLs**\n4. Windows Users\n    - Go to `File` \u003e `Preferences`\n    - Add `http://arduino.esp8266.com/stable/package_esp8266com_index.json` to the **Additional Boards Manager URLs**\n5. Go to `Tools` \u003e `Board` \u003e `Boards Manager`\n6. Type in `esp8266`\n7. Select version `2.0.0` and click on `Install` (**must be version 2.0.0!**)\n![Arduino IDE - Boards Manager](Tools/assets/arduino-ide/boards-manager.png)\n8. Patching ESP8266 v2.0.0 Core\n    - Check your ESP8266 packages location\n        - MacOS Users\n            - Go to `Arduino` \u003e `Preferences`\n\n                Find your packages path location under text `More preferences can be edited directly in the file`\n        - Windows Users\n            - Go to `File` \u003e `Preferences`\n\n                Find your packages path location under text `More preferences can be edited directly in the file`\n9. Copy patch files in the **esp8266-Patch** folder to the following locations\n\n    |Patch File|Path Location|Folder|\n    |---|---|:---:|\n    |user_interface.h|[packages-location]`/packages/esp8266/hardware/esp8266/2.0.0/tools/sdk/include`|`include`|\n    |ESP8266WiFi.cpp\u003cbr\u003eESP8266WiFi.h|[packages-location]`/packages/esp8266/hardware/esp8266/2.0.0/libraries/ESP8266WiFi/src`|`src`|\n    |ESP8266HTTPUpdateServer.cpp|[packages-location]`/packages/esp8266/hardware/esp8266/2.0.0/libraries/ESP8266HTTPUpdateServer/src`|`src`|\n10. Go to `CatchME` folder, and open `CatchME.ino` file in **Arduino IDE**\n11. Select your ESP8266 board module *(this guide using NodeMCU 1.0 (ESP12-E Module))* and the right port\n    - Go to `Tools` \u003e `Board`, select the right board module\n    - Go to `Tools` \u003e `Port`, select the right port\n12. Depending on your ESP8266 board, you may have to adjust the board configurations\n    - Here is an example board configuration for *NodeMCU 1.0 (ESP12-E Module)*\n\n        |Conf|Value|\n        |---|---|\n        |CPU Frequency|80Mhz|\n        |Flash Size| 4M (3M SPIFFS)|\n        |Upload Speed|115200|\n13. Click \u003ckbd\u003eUpload\u003c/kbd\u003e\n\n*Note: This guide is for MacOS and Windows users*\n\n### Using CatchME UI\nCatchME UI method only for updating the firmware, this method can't be use for first time installation.\n1. [Download](https://github.com/HerwonoWr/CatchME/releases) the current firmware release (binary version)\n2. Connect to your **CatchME** network\n3. Open **CatchME UI** IP address from your browser\n4. Go to `SYSTEM INFO` menu, and click `SELECT FIRMWARE FILE .BIN`\n![CatchME UI - Firmware Update](Tools/assets/catchme-ui/catchme-ui-update.png)\n5. Browse for the `.bin` file you just downloaded and click open\n6.
