How to send deauth packets from osx?

Question

aireplay-ng is not available for Mac OSX. How can I inject frames into the network? I am only concerned with sending deauth packets.

You can also use Scapy which is a Python packet forger. – Xavier59 Dec 26 '16 at 17:47 — Xavier59, Dec 26 '16 at 17:47

EDIT: Kismac2 is also no longer being maintained however the current build still works on OSX High Sierra

Kismac2 has a very large set of functions, including deauth.

https://github.com/IGRSoft/KisMac2/blob/master/README.md

Although kismac-ng (a previous incarnation) has been abandoned, kismac2 is now the tool of choice for most pentesters and wardrivers who need a quick overview of networks, and several attacks.

You can compile aircrack suite from source code. A guide is in the aircrack-ng webpage

Or if you don't want to compile you can download it from Macports as said in the same webpage

aircrack-ng is available for mac, but aireplay-ng is not. That's why its not working. – Aditya Chaudhary Jan 19 '17 at 13:26

@AdityaChaudhary The [source code in their svn repository](https://svn.aircrack-ng.org/trunk/src/) includes all the tools in the `aircrack-ng` suite, including `aireplay-ng`. Compile it and it should work – Mr. E Jan 19 '17 at 13:35
It doesn't work. – Mark May 21 '19 at 23:35
@Mark What is not working? – Mr. E Jun 06 '19 at 13:30
It just doesn't work. Have you tried it on a recent mac? Bettercap works – Mark Jun 07 '19 at 14:02
@Mark If it's a problem with `aireplay-ng` you should report it to the maintainer. Last time I had to use it worked fine, but it was a long time ago – Mr. E Jun 10 '19 at 15:06
I'm reporting it here to save people spending time compiling it only to find it doesn't work. – Mark Jun 16 '19 at 20:43
`brew install aircrack-ng` – Chad Skeeters Nov 30 '19 at 20:41

To give you an answer you could work with, I uploaded my Kali image to the hub. Just start docker (in our case docker engine for OSX) and give it a shot. It works.

docker run --name pen-tests -ti --net="host" --privileged -h kali fitz4815162342/pen-tests /bin/bash

just general advice never run some random docker image from the internet, especially a privileged docker image. – JBirdVegas Aug 16 '19 at 19:17
