The ARP Spoofer is a Python script designed to perform ARP spoofing on a specified IP range. It allows you to intercept and manipulate network traffic between devices on a local network. This tool is intended for educational purposes and should only be used in environments where you have permission to test network security.
- Conducts an ARP scan to identify devices on the network.
- Allows you to select a target device for ARP spoofing.
- Continuously sends spoofed ARP packets to the target device.
- Captures packets and saves them to a
.pcapfile for analysis.
To run this script, you need the following libraries:
scapy: A powerful Python library for network packet manipulation.ipaddress: A built-in Python library for creating and manipulating IP addresses and networks.
You can install the required libraries using pip:
pip install scapy- Run the script with sudo privileges to ensure it has the necessary permissions to manipulate network settings:
sudo python3 arp_spoofer.py -ip_range <ip_range>Replace <ip_range> with the desired IP range (e.g., 192.168.1.0/24).
- Select the target device from the displayed list of devices on the network. Enter the corresponding ID to start the ARP spoofing process.
- Monitor the captured packets in the
requests.pcapfile generated in the current working directory.
sudo python3 arp_spoofer.py -ip_range 192.168.1.0/24- Ethical Use: This tool should only be used in a controlled environment where you have explicit permission to test network security.
- Network Disruption: ARP spoofing can disrupt network communication. Use with caution and be aware of the potential impact on the network.
