:briefcase: Change your MAC address for debugging

SpoofMAC - Spoof your MAC address

NOTE: Consider using spoof, a node.js port of this package.

For OS X, Windows, and Linux (most flavors)

I made this because changing your MAC address in Mac OS X is harder than it should be. The biggest annoyance is that the Wi-Fi card (Airport) needs to be manually disassociated from any connected networks in order for the change to be applied correctly. Doing this manually every time is tedious and lame.

Instead of doing that, just run this Python script and change your MAC address in one command. Now for Windows and Linux, too!

Note for Windows 10: While it may appear that this script does not work anymore, it does. The reason for this is that the change only appears in the Network Adapter properties in the Control Panel. Commands such as getmac or ipconfig will still show the original MAC address even though it has been changed. (Note: this actually appears to depend on the NIC (Network Interface Card). I tested it with my desktop and ipconfig showed the change, however it does not show the change on my laptop)

To see this for yourself, follow the below steps:

1. Open Control Panel
2. Click 'Network and Internet'
3. Click 'Network and Sharing Center'
4. On the panel to the left, click 'Change adapter settings'
5. A new window will appear showing all of the network adapters. Right-click the one that is currently active/enabled, and click 'Properties'
6. Near the top, click the button that says 'Configure'
7. Another window will open. At the top, click the 'Advanced' tab.
8. In the list to the left, select either 'Network Address' or 'Locally Administered Address'. This will depend on your system. You should see your MAC address in the text box to the right. This MAC address should change when you run this script on Windows 10. If the text box is empty and 'Not Present' is selected, run the script once to generate a new MAC address and follow the above steps. The 'Value' checkbox should now be selected and there should be a new MAC address in the text box.

Installation

You can install from PyPI using pip or easy_install:

pip install SpoofMAC
easy_install SpoofMAC

or clone/download the repository and install with setup.py. Ex:

git clone git://github.com/feross/SpoofMAC.git
cd SpoofMAC
python setup.py install

If you're not using the system Python (because you use Homebrew, for example), make sure you add '/usr/local/share/python/' (or equivalent) to your path.

Or, consider using spoof, a node.js port of this package.

Usage

SpoofMAC installs a command-line script called spoof-mac.py. You can always see up-to-date usage instructions by typing spoof-mac.py --help.

Examples

Some short usage examples.

List available devices:

spoof-mac.py list
- "Ethernet" on device "en0" with MAC address 70:56:51:BE:B3:00
- "Wi-Fi" on device "en1" with MAC address 70:56:51:BE:B3:01 currently set to 70:56:51:BE:B3:02
- "Bluetooth PAN" on device "en1"

List available devices, but only those on wifi:

spoof-mac.py list --wifi
- "Wi-Fi" on device "en0" with MAC address 70:56:51:BE:B3:6F

Randomize MAC address (requires root)

You can use the hardware port name, such as:

spoof-mac.py randomize wi-fi

or the device name, such as:

spoof-mac.py randomize en0

Set device MAC address to something specific (requires root)

spoof-mac.py set 00:00:00:00:00:00 en0

Reset device to its original MAC address (requires root)

While not always possible (because the original physical MAC isn't available), you can try setting the MAC address of a device back to its burned-in address using reset:

spoof-mac.py reset wi-fi

(older versions of OS X may call it "airport" instead of "wi-fi")

Another option to reset your MAC address is to simply restart your computer. OS X doesn't store changes to your MAC address between restarts. If you want to make change your MAC address and have it persist between restarts, read the next section.

Optional: Run automatically at startup

OS X doesn't let you permanently change your MAC address. Every time you restart your computer, your address gets reset back to whatever it was before. Fortunately, SpoofMAC can easily be set to run at startup time so your computer will always have the MAC address you want.

Startup Installation Instructions

First, make sure SpoofMAC is installed. Then, run the following commands in Terminal:

# Download the startup file for launchd
curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/feross/SpoofMAC/master/misc/local.macspoof.plist > local.macspoof.plist

# Customize location of `spoof-mac.py` to match your system
cat local.macspoof.plist | sed "s|/usr/local/bin/spoof-mac.py|`which spoof-mac.py`|" | tee local.macspoof.plist

# Copy file to the OS X launchd folder
sudo cp local.macspoof.plist /Library/LaunchDaemons

# Set file permissions
cd /Library/LaunchDaemons
sudo chown root:wheel local.macspoof.plist
sudo chmod 0644 local.macspoof.plist

By default, the above will randomize your MAC address on computer startup. You can change the command that gets run at startup by editing the local.macspoof.plist file.

sudo vim /Library/LaunchDaemons/local.macspoof.plist

spoofmac's Issues

MAC OS 10.11.1 (15B42)

Hello,

Are there any reports with the WIFI loosing it's ip address. The script Spoofmac worked flawlessly and the connectivity was stable and then I upgraded to MAC OS 10.11.1 since then I lose the connectivity.
I am not entirely sure that the ^problem is stemming from Spoofmac.

And I may need to uninstall the script to further troubleshoot the issue.

uninstall

i did:
git clone git://github.com/feross/SpoofMAC.git
cd SpoofMAC
python setup.py install
now i want to uninstall completely. how?

Rand Readme

Add instructions for randomizing the mac to README.md

sudo python SpoofMAC.py en0
sudo python SpoofMAC.py en1

List command should show current MAC address

Mac: Wont Load On Startup

SpoofMAC wont load on startup. I'm running MacOS Sierra and this is in system.log

Print not change?

Is it possible to just generate a random mac address (to stdout) with this tool without affecting change on any actual network interface?

"Connection Timeout"

Whenever I change the MAC address I am unable to connect to any access point. I get a "Connection Timeout" message.

The changed ethernet address appears in the "ifconfig" output, but not in the output of "networksetup -listallhardwareports".

OSX Lion on a MBP from 2007 using my wi-fi en1 adapter.

Issue when showing all Wi-Fi interface names

The program in the "Show only Wi-Fi interfaces" mode, currently only shows those interfaces that are exactly named "Wi-Fi". But in my PC, I often end up having names like "Wi-Fi 2", "Wi-Fi 3" etc (after changing network configs). I guess we should change line 352 in interface.py something like,

if port.lower() in wireless_port_names:
to
if port.lower().startswith("wi-fi") or (port.lower() == "airport"):

Print warning when not running with `sudo`

This would be much better than throwing an error like:

root required to disassociate
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): permission denied

os.geteuid() does not exist on Windows

spoof-mac relies on a call to os.geteuid(), which prevents the command-line script from working on Windows, returning a 'module' object has no attribute 'geteuid' error. Is there an alternative for Windows?

I can't get this to work on python 3.4 windows.

I 2to3ed the whole folder because I saw some incompatible functions.
I had to rename the script spoof-mac to spoof-mac.py to get a prompt. This was in C:\python34\Scripts

spoof-mac list gives this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Python34\Scripts\spoof-mac.py", line 5, in

This is of course a *nix call.

What now?

Regression: Add back run on startup instructions

en0 and en1 are not always wired and wireless

On my MacBook Air (2012), en0 is Wi-Fi and en1 at the moment is my Bluetooth connection (tethered). Executing networksetup -setairportpower en1 on (line 37 of SpoofMAC.py) returns the error: "en1 is not a Wi-Fi interface."

if i replace 9C by 9D I got the same error, if I replace the 'C' by a number, it works.

Script Run On Startup Question

"By default, the above will randomize your MAC address on computer startup. You can change the command that gets run at startup by editing the local.macspoof.plist file."

Does this mean, the original randomised MAC address will be applied on startup, or that it will randomise it every time the computer turns on?

OUI set to a VMware

The randomization protocol automatically sets the first three hexadecimal values the same every time (00:05:69). This is not particularly random, and tells any device that you are either operating a VMware virtual machine or are using this software to spoof your MAC. I read through the source code and saw that you chose this range because it would have a very low chance of colliding with another device on the network (one in 16.7 million for any other random VMware MAC), however I would recommend throwing in some code to switch between a couple of different possible VM designations:
00:50:56, 00-0C-29 for manually assigned VMware MACs
00:16:3E for Xen VMs
00-03-FF Microsoft Hyper-V, Virtual Server, Virtual PC
00-1C-42 Parallells
00-0F-4B Virtual Iron 4
08-00-27 Sun Virtual Box

Doing this will increase the anonymity without greatly increasing the risk of collision.

I fixed the problem by commenting out lines 94 and 95 in spoof-mac.py, but I'm guessing you want a prettier solution.

Randomizing "Thunderbolt 1" and "Thunderbolt 2" on OSX 10.11

Hi,
when running 'list', it shows me that both Thunderbolt connections run on en1 and en2, respectively. However when I try to randomize en1 and en2 there is no change, or at least 'list' doesn't show any change.

Any idea why that could be happening?

Find new maintainers!

SpoofMAC is looking for new maintainers. I haven't written Python in much too long, so I'm not the best maintainer for this package going forward. @TkTech (who did the v1 rewrite and made it PEP8 compliant) is very busy and could use some help.

There are many open issues regarding Python 3 support (#22, #25, #28) so if someone wants to tackle that with a PR, if it looks good, we'll add you as a GitHub collaborator. :)

Thanks in advance to anyone who steps up!

Question regarding local.macspoof.plist

Error when using spoof-mac.py

Hello.

I found your script and installed it, but I'm unable to use it, because it gives me some kind of error which I don't understand.
First I downloaded packed version manualy which is in tar.gz and unpacked it.
Installed it using python 2.7.9 with sudo's help (otherwise I'd get access denied) and tried spoof-mac.py --help, but got an error.
I thought I must do something more so I wrote those commands for Startup Installation Instructions, yet this error occurs anyway.
Everytime it's the same error:

I also tried installing it via pip install SpoofMac, but I still get same error.
What did I do wrong?

Thanks in advance. :)

Submit to PIP and easy_install

Not sure how this works...

Automatically reconnect to last connected network?

This would be fantastic if it was possible!

No results on 3.17.6-1-ARCH Linux

It might be my hardware or system configuration limitation because I have tried multiple methods with no result. However I though I would mention this and see if there is something that could be done to accomplish mac spoofing in my environment.

When I run
$ sudo spoof-mac.py list
It has no output

$ ifconfig

OSX Yosemite breaks Spoof-Mac

You can run the program, it sucessfuly turns off and on the wifi, but doesn't change the address

Issue with Windows MAC address formatting

Correct me if I'm wrong but I read in several articles like this one that in Windows, the following restriction applies:

Some adapters (especially Wi-Fi cards) are unforgiving of MAC addresses changes if the first octet's 2nd half isn't a 2,6,A,E or begins with a zero. This requirement has been observed as far back as Windows XP and is formatted as:

D2XXXXXXXXXX
D6XXXXXXXXXX
DAXXXXXXXXXX
DEXXXXXXXXXX

Now, AFAIK, D stands for 1-9. But all randomly generated MACs in SpoofMAC start with 0.

MAC not changed

Hi,

I'm using Ralink RT5390R 802.11bgn

Add `spoof-mac startup` option to automate and toggle running on startup.

Sppofmac not automating

Hello,
I installed the following on my mac book running 10.10.4 pip install SpoofMAC and easy_install SpoofMAC and I also wanted to automate this.
if I run sudo spoof-mac.py randomize en1 it does what it does
then I run spoof-mac.py list and shows what it's supposed to.
But I installed the Startup Installation . And restarted my system and there is no changes on the WIFI card and also is the local.macspoof.plist supposed to be empty?

Refactor to use the argparse module.

Would clean up the argument parsing a bit to use http://docs.python.org/2.7/library/argparse.html
