CatSniffer 😼 is an original multiprotocol, and multiband board made for sniffing, communicating, and attacking IoT (Internet of Things) devices. It was designed as a highly portable USB stick that integrates the new chips TI CC1352, Semtech SX1262, and an RP2040 for V3 or a Microchip SAMD21E17 for V2.
This board is a swiss army knife for IoT security researchers, developers, and enthusiasts. The board can be used with different types of software including third-party sniffers such as SmartRF Packet Sniffer, Sniffle, zigbee2mqtt, Z-Stack-firmware, Ubiqua Protocol Analyzer, our custom software, or you can even write your own software for your specific needs.
CatSniffer can operate in 3 different technologies:
This work was inspired by our friend's work Michael Ossmann as a tribute to his outstanding job in Greatscott Gadgets, making devices like the YardStick, GreatFET, HackRF, and Ubertooth.
The CatSniffer has been evolving since its first release:
We as an pro-open-source companies decided to keep the support for each version, but having in mind that newer versions will have more features than the first versions.
The different firmwares are inside the repository and not in the realese section to keep a propper track of the compiled and source files.
All Catsniffer Firmware has been moved to a different repository, to have a better version control, and issue tracking you will find it here:
https://github.com/ElectronicCats/CatSniffer-Firmware
All catsniffer versions are supported in this repository, you will need to check what version you own and select the proper branch to develop or release for just program your board.
All Catsniffer Software has been moved to a different repository, to have a better version control, and issue tracking you will find it here:

This kit is designed to allow Product developers to evaluate electronic components, circuit, or software associated with the kit to determine whether to incorporate such items in a finished product and Software developers to write software applications for use with the end product. This kit is a developer product and when assembled may not be resold or otherwise marketed unless all required FCC (or any other local authority) equipment authorizations are first obtained. Operation is subject to the condition that this product not cause harmful interference to licensed radio stations and that this product accept harmful interference.
We have been doing worshops held in different security related events the material avaible is public and can be found here
