Abstract
========

This tool is a small proof-of-concept code. It aims at encoding a covert channel in valid ACK frames in the RA address field. Using ACK frames has the advantage to be quite stealthy as they are considered harmless and thus are generally not analyzed by wireless IDSes.
Covert channel principles can be extended to encode anything between the lines in the 802.11 protocol and to achieve a reliable communication (shell, file transfer...).

Do not blame me for ugly coding style, it is only a proof of concept!
