A collection of tools for network auditing and penetration testing. Dsniff, filesnarf, mailsnarf, msgsnarf, urlsnarf and webspy allow to passively monitor a network for interesting data (passwords, e-mail, files). Arpspoof, dnsspoof and macof facilitate the interception of network traffic normally unavailable to an attacker (e.g, due to layer-2 switching).
