HID attacks

A Human Interface Device (HID) attack converts a Kali NetHunter device, such as a smartphone with on-the-go (OTG) support, into a pre-programmed keyboard. If a penetration tester uses an OTG cable to create a physical connection between the Kali NetHunter device and a target computer, NetHunter has the capabilities of creating an attack vector. The vector uses a combination of the phone’s hardware and software to create a pre-programmed keyboard. The purpose of the pre-programmed keyboard is to inject script attacks into the target system.
