Scapy Reviews

Scapy Description

Scapy is an interactive packet manipulation program. It can forge and decode packets from a variety of protocols, send them over the wire, capture them and match requests and responses. It can handle most of the classic tasks such as scanning, tracerouting and probing, attacks, or network detection (it can replace Hping, 85% nmap, arpspoofsk, arping), tcpdumpshark, p0f and tshark). It can also handle a lot more specific tasks than most other tools, such as sending invalid frames, injecting 802.11 frames, combining technologynics (VLAN hopping+ARP caching poisoning, VOIP descoding on WEP encrypted channel), and so forth. Scapy works natively on Linux and Windows as well as OSX and most Unixes that have libpcap. The same code base runs natively on Python 2 and Python 3 Scapy development uses Git version control system. The GitHub repository hosts the Scapy reference repository.
