About the project

Toolkit for detecting routers running Broadcom's vulnerable 802.11/WPS implementation: YARA rules for firmware and a live access point fingerprinting script.

Useful for
  • Scan router firmware with YARA rules for the vulnerable WPS component
  • Fingerprint a live access point to get a LIKELY_VULNERABLE or PATCHED_HOSTAPD assessment
  • Collect a PCAP and JSON report to confirm a device is affected

3.7 Early signal Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 19, 2026, 23:09 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

04080October 14, 2026October 19, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-19 (UTC), 20:44–22:59: 112 → 114 stars (+2). This is the change over that interval.
  • The repository is 5 days old and already has 114 stars. With less than two weeks of history, there's no usual pace to compare the spike against yet.
  • About 7 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
