How to install Pyrit in Kali Linux - blackMORE Ops

This guide (How to install Pyrit in Kali Linux) is part of a series that guides readers on How to install FGLRX, AMD APP SDK, CAL++ and Pyrit in Kali Linux. The idea is to install correct drivers in Kali Linux for your GPU and use CPU+GPU combination with Pyrit to make raw data crunching faster. An example would be to utilize this combined processing power to crunch though WPA/WPA2 capture file to find Wifi password.

Readers, please follow this series in the following order:

  1. Install AMD ATI Driver (fglrx) in Kali Linux 1.x
  2. How to install AMD APP SDK in Kali Linux?
  3. How to install CAL++ in Kali Linux?
  4. How to install Pyrit in Kali Linux?

A big thanks goes to hexed6 from Kali Forums for his original post.

Thanks to for his CAL++ project in Sourceforge.

Thanks to Pyrit project

Check FGLRX Installation

First check if fglrx module is installed:

lsmod | grep fglrx

You should get a response similar to:

fglrx 2635205 82
button 12945 1 fglrx

If not installed follow this guide to install it.

Install AMD ATI Driver (fglrx) in Kali Linux 1.x

Check AMD APP SDK Installation

Check if AMD APP SDK is installed. If not installed, follow this guide to install it.

How to install AMD APP SDK in Kali Linux?

Check CAL++ Installation

Check if CAL++ is installed. If not installed, follow this guide to install it.

How to install CAL++ in Kali Linux?

Why Pyrit?

Pyrit allows to create massive databases, pre-computing part of the IEEE 802.11 WPA/WPA2-PSK authentication phase in a space-time-tradeoff. Exploiting the computational power of Many-Core- and other platforms through ATI-Stream, Nvidia CUDA, OpenCL and VIA Padlock, it is currently by far the most powerful attack against one of the world’s most used security-protocols.

Install Pyrit in Kali

Install prerequisites

apt-get install libpcap-dev

Remove existing installation of pyrit

apt-get remove --purge pyrit

If you are not using a clean install of Kali (not recommended), you may need to issue the following command:

rm -r /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/cpyrit/

Download pyrit

svn checkout http://pyrit.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ pyrit_svn

Install Pyrit

cd pyrit_svn/pyrit/
./setup.py build install

Install CAL++ plugin

cd ../cpyrit_calpp/

Edit setup.py

Edit setup.py file and modify/replace the followings:
find VERSION = '0.4.0-dev' and replace with VERSION = '0.4.1-dev'
find CALPP_INC_DIRS.append(os.path.join(CALPP_INC_DIR, 'include')) and replace with

CALPP_INC_DIRS.append(os.path.join(CALPP_INC_DIR, 'include/CAL'))

 

Save and quit, then issue the following command:

 

./setup.py build install

 

There will be several warnings, but hopefully no errors and everything will be installed.

Test cpyrit

Looks like cpyrit issue to me. Did you manage to fix it? (as you're already posted into CAL++, I am guessing yes). Please let us know and it might help someone else in future who bumps into similar issues.

Afraid not. I posted on the Cal++ section because that was the step prior to this one that I assumed was successful.

Hi momi, I typed the last comment from my phone, so didn’t manage to link it properly.

Here’s where I found cal.hpp file in my installation.

root@kali:~# find / -name cal.hpp
/usr/local/include/cal/cal.hpp
/opt/AMDAPP/include/cal/cal.hpp
/opt/AMDAPP/include/CAL/cal.hpp
/opt/AMDAPP/include/cal.hpp
/opt/AMDAPP/include/CL/cal.hpp
/root/calpp-0.90/include/cal/cal.hpp

Files can be downloaded from here: https://github.com/clockfort/amd-app-sdk-fixes
BTW, it’s a bit surprising that you’re seeing this error in Pyrit installation, it’s usually a CAL++ installation issue. Hope this helps.

Hi Azan,
If you look into the error message /usr/local/include/cal/cal.hpp:26:17: fatal error: cal.h: No such file or directory then it becomes clear what is missing. All you need to do is to copy paste cal.h file in that directory. Files can be downloaded from here: https://github.com/clockfort/amd-app-sdk-fixes. You will probably see some similar errors for other files as well, just copy paste those files from git to the correct directory.
Hope that helps.

So im back with good and bad news ,the good news is that i tried the 2.9 versioon of the AMD APP SDK and it worked with Prokash addition the CAL++ worked too my problem was in Pyrit installation the final step whene i try to execute the command :

./setup.py build install

i get this :

sudo ./setup.py build install
unavailable enviroment variable ATISTREAMSDKROOT
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./setup.py", line 35, in 
    CALPP_INC_DIR = os.environ['ATISTREAMSDKROOT']
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/UserDict.py", line 23, in __getitem__
    raise KeyError(key)
KeyError: 'ATISTREAMSDKROOT'

so i think that the AMD SDK installation didnt go well after all what shoud i do now please help ?

youssef.senpai February 16, 2014 - 1:37 am

after 15min from posting my msg i found out the solution you inly need to do all the steps in root acount i was doing them in my admin acount because i dont have a root acount so i cpied the directories "amdappsdk" ,"calpp-0.90" ,and "pyrit_svn" into "/root" and issued the command :

root@kali:~/pyrit_svn/cpyrit_calpp# ./setup.py build install

and everything went well (with a lots of warning though) and here is my benchmark :

Pyrit 0.4.1-dev (svn r308) (C) 2008-2011 Lukas Lueg http://pyrit.googlecode.com

Good one Martin, Thanks for reporting back. I was away, but yeah, your issue was you didn't start with AMDAPPSDK Driver 1st.
The chain is like this,
1. Install AMD Drivers
2. Install SDK toolkit.
3. Reinstall Pyrit (with the workaround outlined in the comments section).
4. Install CAL++.
Hope this clears out confusion for anyone else
out there.

Hi just wanted to say I appreciate all the instruction towards getting pyrit to work with AMD gpu. That being said, I’m at a loss with this error when I try to use pyrit after all steps have been followed.

~/# pyrit

Ive also tried running ./pyrit from ~/pyrit_svn/pyrit and I get this error

OK. So I’ve narrowed down where my installation goes sideways to the same part most people in the comment section are getting stuck on at ./setup.py build install in the ~/pyrit_svn/cpyrit_calpp directory. Only I don’t get any missing cal.hpp errors like the above comments unless I don’t install CAL++ before pyrit. I didn’t get any errors on cmake and pyrit doesn’t output my error from my first post till after cpyrit. installation. I do have a question about the cpyrit_calpp ./setup.py build install output. Should I be getting about 30 of these warnings too?
_cpyrit_calpp_kernel.cpp:429:32: warning: suggest parentheses around arithmetic in operand of ‘^’ [-Wparentheses]
_cpyrit_calpp_kernel.cpp:431:57: warning: suggest parentheses around arithmetic in operand of ‘^’ [-Wparentheses].

Anyways I also tried deleting all folders of installation from steps 2-4 of pyrit guide and starting over using Martin’s solution. Still no dice. I’m not a Linux expert, ive mainly taught myself through with the Internet, so chances are there I’m misinterpreting something in the comment solutions. I appreciate your replies and patience.

blackMORE Ops March 30, 2014 - 2:37 pm

Hi Mikeman,
Yes, we all had that warning. It doesn’t hurt your installation. Only catch is, all of my instructions are for v2.7 AMDAPPSDK. If you’ve installed 2.9, then you might see some random errors. (not warnings).
Just ensure you installed them in the following order:
1. Installed AMD fglrx driver. (there’s a guide for it in this website, pick the most recent one)
2. Installed AMDAPPSDK (guide in my site)
3. Reinstalled Pyrit and Cpyrit (guide in my site, take care of that pesky cal.hpp error as per solutions outlined in comments section)
4. Installed CAL++ (guide in my site).

Unless you have a cards that’s too old or too new (from my experience, only old cards are not supported, all new cards works just fine).
If you may however manage to make it work, copy paste all commands and troubleshooting steps and put in the comments section. I started this blog for myself.. to keep track of issues I’ve encountered. It seems many users got the same issue. And don’t worry about your Linux skills, no one learned and became expert in 1 week. At times, we all fumble and tumble but what I’ve found it always works at the end..
Good Luck.

You probably setup cpyrit_opencl alongside cpyrit_calpp –> this causes the error.

Go into the cpyrit_opencl directory and do the following as root:

python setup.py install –record files.txt
cat files.txt | xargs rm -rf

Now try ‘pyrit list_cores’ :)

Side note: Got the X error with fglrxinfo, to fix that I had to do aticonfig –adapter=all –initial

Hope this helps.

Mikeman March 28, 2014 - 4:23 pm

Thanks for the quick response. I have tried that before, but I tried it again in case I missed something and it still shows the same error. My output from find / -name cal.hpp only showed these outputs
/usr/local/include/cal/cal.hpp
/root/calpp-0.90/include/cal/cal.hpp
should I just copy the whole /root/calpp-0.90/include/cal/ folder and paste it into /opt/AMDAPP/include/ ? Because there isn’t a cal folder in that directory, just the CAL folder.

Hello,

i got the same Problem here.
i found out that when i install everything through like first AMDSDK then calp++ then pyrit ./setup.py and then the calp setup.py i get those 30 Errors.. but it doesnt change the outcome of the Same error :

No protocol specified
terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘cal::Error’
what(): Operational error

and when i install till calp90.0.0 then restart… i wount get these 30 errors .. everything looks fine but then again .. when i start pyrit i get same error again.. drives me crazy that i dont find anything about it. :/

did everything with root.. and tryed pretty much every step.

What’s the exact error message? I had an issue at some point where after reinstalling Pyrit, it wasn’t linked properly. But that’s a problem with Pyrit … and I ended up linking proper directory to fix it. MikeMan fixed it later on at some point … There’s also a fix posted by Martin in the comments section.

Now that you have someone else with similar issues, you can try to share ideas either here or in Kali forum to resolve this issue. Good luck to you both.

Mike Man August 11, 2014 - 8:11 am

No…The only thing i can think of is maybe my graphics card isn’t supported by amd app sdk (too new maybe?). Mine is Radeon HD 8600. I went to the website and found a list of supported graphics cards, but i don’t think mine was on it.

AndyFive May 27, 2014 - 1:52 pm

I am also now getting the error:

terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘cal::Error’
what(): Operational error

The thing is that I had pyrit installed and working. I added about 100,000,000 passwords to the database and then restarted. After which, I started getting this error. Has anyone found a solution to the problem?? Please help! This is driving me nuts!!

Hi JohnDN,
It’s possibly an issue with .cap file. Run pyrit selftest and pyrit benchmark to check if it’s really and issue with Pyrit or not.
Also are you running on CrossFire?

I am not running crossfire, only one AMD R9 290. Also, I tried simply “pyrit” and “pyrit benchmark” and I get the “Segmentation fault”. So I believe it is an issue with Pyrit. I’ll review the post you linked when I have more time and see if that resolves it. I am using OpenCL Pyrit for now.

I have reinstalled 4 times and then kali step by step guide on HP pavilion AMD cpu a10
and amd radeon 8600 GPUs.
I had no errors but typing in command: pyrit list_cores segmentation fault error.
I noticed the disappearance of pyrit and tried to reinstall with apt-get install pyrit but always segmentation fault.
What wrong?

Is your card supported? Fglrx works? SDK v2.7? I’m on mobile now, so can’t do research but someone posted a similar comment or solution either in my site or kali forums.

Reply
Rott May 28, 2014 - 9:12 pm

I installed the ati driver according to the tutorial and now I can see the video card radeon HD8600 and Fglrx works perfectly.
I installed SDK v2.7 as a tutorial and I had no errors.
I installed Cal + + and I did not have errors.
If I follow the tutorial on installing pyrit I have no errors but I do not run pyrit.
with “apt-get remove – purge pyrit” I uninstalled pyrit but following the tutorial when I install it I do not fault you run giving me error segment.
Where can I check the compatibility of the video card?
I just installed kali and I’m re-running the tutorial.
Sorry my bad english

When I try to run:

i get some strange thing where it says:

Where do I go from here?I I installed everything without a problem (the SDK is v2.9). FGLRX installs fine, pyrit didn’t throw any errors at me. everything else works, but for some reason pyrit gives me that error.
Could I have followed something wrong?

I get the same thing. It won’t work as a server or if I try the other way, It doesn’t work with other servers. Not sure whats going on. Although, I had 2 Nvidia machines working together. My setup now is 1 AMD and 1 Nvidia.

Ihave a ATI mobility HD 8xxxx series card. usng CAl++ gives me a segmentation fault as others have described here.

Running pyrit before the CAL++ “plugin” worked.
Afteer installing CAL++ “plugin” i only get a segmentation fault. ive posted that in the CAL++ install thread.

My workarond was to use the OpenCl “plugin”.

heres what i did after getting the segmentation fault:

In blackMOORES guide
For CAL++ its:
cd ../cpyrit_calpp/

Instead For OPENCL plugin its:
cd ../cpyrit_opencl

leafpad setup.py

Change this (lines 34 & 35):
OPENCL_INC_DIRS = []
OPENCL_LIB_DIRS = []

To this and save the file:
OPENCL_INC_DIRS = [‘/opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64/include/’]
OPENCL_LIB_DIRS = [‘/opt/AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64/lib/x86_64/’]

./setup.py build install
pyrit list_cores

Hope it helps guys stuck at the segmentation fault error.

You can use AMDAPP instead AMD-APP-SDK-v2.4-lnx64

OPENCL_INC_DIRS = [‘/opt/AMDAPP/include/’]
OPENCL_LIB_DIRS = [‘/opt/AMDAPP/lib/x86_64/’]

This works fine with my system.

Has anyone been able to use two gpu’s with pyrit? I tried with two 7970’s, but my PKMs get cut in half on each card. It doesn’t matter how I configure the cards I can only get 56,000 PKMs each card. On a single card I can get 140,000 PKMs. I know that there are problems getting pyrit to scale with more than one gpu, but I have seen screen shots of two 7970’s doing 280,000 PKMs. Any help wold be appreciated.

I had many issues, tried with Kali, then a couple of times and now again a fresh install of Kali 1.07..
Now nearly everything worked immediately, but in the end im stuck:

translate.google.com: Memory access error. But i I think its something with Segmentationfault, is that right?

I went 3 or 4 times through your Tutorial, but it always ended like this..
I tried to get rezurect’s method to work.. failed the same way..

fglrx, AMDAPPSDK and CAL++ is all successfully installed. I really dont know whats wrong here..

My PC:
4770k@4*4ghz HT = about 5000 PKMs,
but i really want to get use of my R9 290X

Hi Chavez,
First of, congrats on winning the world cup. :)
As for your issue, few questions:
1. Did you install AMD APP SDK 2.9 first then reverted back to 2.7?
2. Did you only use Kali Linux official repositories?
3. Everything updated, upgraded as per standard procedures (without any 3rd party/Debian packages)?

If any of the questions were answered NO, I’m afraid you might have to try a fresh install. Good luck and thanks for stopping by.
Cheers,

Reply
ChavezD July 23, 2014 - 7:32 pm

Tank you for your reply! :)
1. “NO”, complete fresh install. That means directly installed 2.7
2. Yes, did it how written in your tutorial.
3. Yes, but im not sure when i “perfectly” should do this. Directly after installing Linux and befor beginning to install other things?

I think i’m just gonna try one more time now.. Such project never took me so long to get achieved, either it worked or i surrendered after a few hours of work..
Well, i’ll keep you posted when i am done one more time :D

Any chance getting it to work? Or how about OpenCL instead of Cal++, maybe this works?

santhrax September 25, 2014 - 12:38 am

Hi ChavezD,

I also have a R9 290X (PowerColor PCS+ R9 290X) card. CAL++ is not working for me either in 32 bit or 64 bit system – that’s really sad :( same “Segmentation fault”

please check:
root@b0x:~# dmesg | grep -i pyrit

[ 1225.795189] pyrit[14130]: segfault at e1c ip 00007fa54d720399 sp 00007fffccef8d30 error 4 in libaticaldd.so[7fa54d5bd000+b47000]

when this error accours. I think you will get the same error like me

Totally pissed off ended up with OpenCL.
no so much performance than CAL++ but so far OK but I would like to get CA++ working (+30% more performance than OpenCL)

card only!

Hi !
Can pyrit to work with ATI and nVidia both? For example RADEON and GeForce 8800. need to compile two copies of the program (for CUDA and CAL++)? or can it all together in one program

Best regards

Hi Andrej,
On the same machine with 2 graphics cards installed? (i.e. NVIDIA and ATI?). No, wont work as the lib files would be different. But hey, that’s just me talking, if someone can make them work… I’m all ears! Cheers,

Ok so i guess i installed something in the wrong way..
Is there a way to know if i have installed each things in the right way?
The AMD ATI Driver (fglrx) i think is install correctly beacuse:

root@kali:~# fglrxinfo
display: :0.0 screen: 0
OpenGL vendor string: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
OpenGL renderer string: AMD Radeon R9 200 Series
OpenGL version string: 4.4.12874 Compatibility Profile Context 14.10.1006.1001

and i can also generate xorg.conf:

root@kali:~# aticonfig –initial -f
Uninitialised file found, configuring.
Using /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Saving back-up to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.fglrx-0

So i think the problem isn’t here.
For the AMD APP SDK i use the 2.7 version instead of the last one (2.9.1),

I also install CAL++ without receiving an error.

And for Pyrit i have it installed but not work with CAL++ (see post above).

So what i ask is if Is there a way to know if i have installed each things in the right way?
Is there a way to remove (uninstall) each things to retry all the process?

Thanks a lot.

I saw it’s rated ~140k on other people benchmarks. Could you suggest what’s wrong? Also it’s just one card why does it show 2 GPU? thank you. I ran 4 benchmarks and that’s what I average. Also as I understand it’s under great load. I can feel it’s hot but fan doesn’t start speeding up like when I play games on max.

4th day of installation with the same error on 3rd installation :(

Everythng works with no errors until after I install cal++ (which is installed with no error messages)

Whenever I try using a command via pyrit this shows up like some other users have reported:

terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘cal::Error’
what(): Operational error
Aborted

I’ve tried just about everything here… any other ideas of what could make this go wrong? If I install pyrit without cal++ everything works fine, but my gpu isn’t recognized.

Thanks for the guide blackmore ops. I eventually bought a desktop computer with radeon hd 7000 series and everything worked. On my laptop it was 8400 series. Followed steps from guide exactly the same on both devices. In still not sure sure whether a work around exists for that error but getting another computer was a whole lot less of a headache. If you already have a desktop I would consider another graphics card. But then again I’m extremely impatient so maybe you can figure out how to work around it. Also I installed with Kali 1.0.9 because of headers not available for 1.0.6.
Good luck to you.

ploopy07 October 28, 2014 - 11:21 am

I also gave up on this route of installation. Instead of using my laptop to crack the handshakes, I set up a remote desktop to my main computer where I can then crack it from there. I was able to get it running on my main computer which has 2x nvidia gtx 660s. This was probably a better solution considering how my laptop’s gpu wouldn’t come close to the power my gpus give on my desktop. Thanks for the guide, it still ended up working in the end just not on my laptop.

i’ve also read every same error with mine and tried followed the solvation you gave but it still got wrong.

every step you gave i just exactly followed except i installed AMDAPPSDK2.7 after i found version2.9 wasn’t work on my system.

and my AMD version is:

can anyone solve this problem? i’ll appreciate with you!

I have a fresh install of Kali-Linux 3.14 64 and a Radeon hd 5450 video card so wanted to crack with hashes and pyrit with GPU. I have followed instructions to install AMD APP SDK, CalPP, fglrx drivers and pyrit svn. Now I have been at this for about a month and have re-installed Kali 9 times lol but have finally got everything to run perfectly, even found calpp v2.7 and using it instead of v2.9 so everythings good untill I get to pyrit, I did:

UPDATE: I now have everything installed and running perfectly. The things I did differently this last sucessfull time was to reboot after every single step, meaning, after install fglrx-reboot, after install AMD APP SDK 2.7 (2.9 DOES NOT WORK!)-reboot, calpp-reboot, then pyrit. I also used a clean install of Kali updated before the install then followed the instructions here exactly.

Hey, I’ve been following these tutorials step by step, and I have reinstalled about 14 times. This time I got EVERY step to work, (I did them in the order of fglrx, ATI SDK, Cal++, then finally this one, and everything worked except for after I install this one I get the error terminate called after throwing an instance of ‘cal::Error’
what(): Operational error
Aborted.

And don’t tell me to look at Mike’s post or whatever, because I’ve tried everything, I have scoured the web. I will reinstall AGAIN if I have to, but my problem was that after I installed Cal++ originally I could use pyrit benchmark and list_cores.

So what the hell did we do that screwed it up?

I read online that having Open CL and Pyrit Cal++ installed at the same time will throw that error, but that was only in one spot. I have not been able to find a solution. I tried every single one I could find. With this in mind, can you tell me how to uninstall what I did just install?

Or can you help me find a fix?

I’m praying you actually answer these still.

I know I can get more out of it also with a little messing around.. This is in Kali 1.1.0 ,Unclean heavily modified dirty dirty macbook install.. Thank you everyone also all your comments and problems helped me figure this out without having to make a post :)

Btw guys, Kali runs amazing on apple hardware, a few mini pita things but if you have a little smarts and the support network the quality of Linux/ Kali community you can do it, I Hope some more of you try this out. I have an integrated graphics intel/Ati Radeon HD 6400M btw, and all feature / functions including steam all work with kali.. Also, I am quad-booted with OS-X Yosemite , Windows 7 , We4kerth4n and Kali. Did not effect anything else in the negative.. Thanks again guys.

Hi Blackmore, I did read the comments but non of them specified the error about openssl. After some research i found out that I needed additional headers and that fixed the problem. But now I have another. I installed everything but pyrit is not working. I get the following error

root@kali:~# pyrit list_cores
Segmentation fault
root@kali:~# pyrit benchmark
Segmentation fault

I did see in the comments that many others also experienced this problem but I couldn’t find any answers. I do have an r9 290 as most of the others with the same problem. I guess its not supported.

Thanks for the help.

Pyrit is not actively developed for many years now. I assume some cards might not work.
Ubuntu is usually the de facto supported card, so if this is something you MUST have, then you can always install Ubuntu in a separate partition and try it.
I cannot rule out that the problem lies with Kali only. Also, I can only comment on the cards I’ve tested. Hope that explains. Thanks,

I fixed that <openssl/hmac.h> issue with installation:

apt-get install g++
apt-get install python-dev
apt-get install zlib1g-dev
apt-get install libssl-dev

Thank you for time saving advice. I have been running into problems with some tools and so I have decided I may clear the slate and start with a stable kali build and then run certain tools separate from others in containers from docker to keep things from conflicting and breaking all the time. There are a few tools I need python2 (they won’t run properly on 3) things break if I switch from python2 to 3 when I need one or the other plus doing it that way would be a waste of time. I have to do a little more research and plan it all out how I am going to rebuild this thing. I have had this problem with a few installs in regards to having conflicts with one another now and so I think docker is a good answer here.

I just did the re-install after upgrading to kali 2.0 and having kali messing up my device beyond belief… But this time around after downgrading back to kali 1.x Instead of this taking me days it only took me an hour ;) on my macbook pro… Epic… thanks again!! (and don’t goto kali 2.0 if your thinking about this until it gets all the bugs worked out) older kali works better! <3

My laptop has nvidia GeForce GT 330M. Install NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-340.93.run and cuda_6.5.19_linux_64.run
Then Install pyrit.

ALWAYS “Segmentation fault”, for EVERY configuration that i tried and EVERY possible solution!! I see everybody has the same problem. If the Author or somebody linux expert can’t find the solution i think that this thread is referred to 50% of Kali linux users… Anyway thanks for the tutorial !!

What would be the steps to update an existing installation of pyrit?
I already have it fully working… but it’s many versions in the past.
Thanks
