This repository provides a proof-of-concept exploit for CVE-2019-6203, a vulnerability affecting Apple devices (iOS < 12.2, macOS < 10.14.4, tvOS < 12.2) that allows an attacker to force devices to associate with a malicious Wi-Fi access point. The main script, 'CVE-2019-6203-PoC.py', is written in Python and orchestrates the setup of a rogue AP using 'hostapd-wpe', configures DHCP/DNS with 'dnsmasq', and sets up NAT with iptables if internet access is desired. The script requires root privileges and a Wi-Fi card capable of AP mode. The repository also includes a README with usage instructions and references, and a standard GPL license file. The exploit is a POC and does not include advanced payloads, but demonstrates the attack vector and setup required to exploit the vulnerability.
