Feature Request: Deauth with whitelist configuration for enhanced deauth attack #2942
Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No, it is a new feature/extension of an existing module I think would be useful.
Describe the solution you'd like
A new option for the enhanced deauth that instead of globally deauthing or targeting individual devices, a user registers specific MAC addresses through manual entry or scan selection and then the deauth allows those MAC addresses to remain connected.
This would be essential for professional pentesting/chaos engineering because it could allow enumeration of specific devices that are critical to the client that should not be disrupted (for example, testing the efficacy of a deauth attack on wifi cameras but not kicking other essential wireless devices).
Describe alternatives you've considered
I considered using the targeted list, but with devices coming on and off the network, it could make it difficult to maintain that list using the touch interface. Additionally, some devices such as laptops may use per-connection MAC addresses which would defeat a target list attack and making the utility of this function for pentesting/chaos engineering less effective
Additional context
I will be submitting a PR for this request as a contribution for consideration.
