# IMSI-catcher
This program show you IMSI numbers of cellphones around you.
/!\ This program was made to understand how GSM network work. Not for bad hacking !
What you need
=============
1 PC with more than 3Go of RAM to compile gr-gsm
1 USB DVB-T key (RTL2832U) with antenna (less than 15$)
Setup
=====
```
cd /tmp
sudo apt-get install gnuradio git python-scapy
git clone https://github.com/pybombs/pybombs.git
cd pybombs
```
/!\ when "./pybombs config" ask for "prefix", set "/usr/local" :
prefix [/tmp/target]:/usr/local
```
./pybombs config
```
```
sudo ./pybombs install gr-gsm
echo "[grc]
local_blocks_path=/usr/local/share/gnuradio/grc/blocks
" > ~/.gnuradio/config.conf
```
Run
===
In terminal 1
```
sudo python simple_IMSI-catcher.py
```
In terminal 2
```
airprobe_rtlsdr.py
```
Now, change the frequency and stop it when you have out put like :
```
15 06 21 00 01 f0 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b
25 06 21 00 05 f4 f8 68 03 26 23 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b 2b
49 06 1b 95 cc 02 f8 02 01 9c c8 03 1e 57 a5 01 79 00 00 1c 13 2b 2b
...
```
Now, watch terminal 1 and wait. IMSI number should appear :-)
If nothing appear after 1 min, change the frequency.

Example of frequency : 9.288e+08 Bouygues
You can watch GSM packet with
```
sudo wireshark -k -Y '!icmp && gsmtap' -i lo
```
