Hi again, yes, I am considering the idea of donating something,I have good memories linked to Perl, since the start of this summer I started writing some articles for the perl.com, I am still waiting the publication, hope soon. I am writing again because the "enemy" strickes back, while I was testing the lorcon_create I tried to put everything into the "new" subroutine for the function initialization, the code is as follows:

sub new {
   my (undef, undef, $interface, undef, $driver) = @_;
   my $self = shift->SUPER::new(
      driver    => $driver,
      interface => $interface,
      @_,
   );
   my $drv = lorcon_find_driver($self->driver);
   if (! $drv) {
      die  "[*] new: lorcon_find_driver: failed\n";
      return;
   }

   $self->driver( $drv );
 
   my $context = lorcon_create($self->interface, $drv); #_drv
   if (! $context) {
      die "[*] new: lorcon_create: failed\n";
      return;
   }
   $self->_context($context) or die $!;
   return $self;
}

the only big problem stands when I tried to call the setInjectMode it produces a core dump (again). the code is:

sub setInjectMode {
   my $self = shift;
   my $r = lorcon_open_inject($self->_context);#->_context);
   if ($r == -1) {
      die "[*] setInjectMode: lorcon_open_inject: " . lorcon_get_error
+( $self->_context ) . "\n";
      return;
   }
   return 1;
}

I think that there is something wrong in the $self->_context variable, perhaps I haven't understood the use of "_context" **update** dumping the Lorcon initialization variable the result was:

$VAR1 = bless( [
                 \152150320,
                 'wlo1',
                 undef,
                 \152168944
               ], 'Net::Lorcon2' );
[download]

I think that the "undef" is referred to the _drv, the \152150320 is the $driver. the \152150320 changes to 'madwifing' modifyng those 2 lines

   # $self->driver( $drv ) ;
   my $context = lorcon_create($self->interface, $drv); #_drv
