PYTHON PROTOCOL EXPLOITS: IN-PACKET MANIPULATION AND BEYOND
Dive deep into the often-overlooked world of protocol security with Python Protocol Exploits. This isn't your typical hacking guide; it's a focused exploration of how to manipulate and exploit network protocols using Python, a language renowned for its flexibility and power in networking.
What You'll Learn
Forget brute-force attacks and simple port scanning. This book teaches you to think like a black-hat network engineer, revealing the vulnerabilities hidden within the protocols themselves. You'll learn how to:
Forge custom packets to bypass firewalls and intrusion detection systems (IDS).Intercept, modify, and re-inject data mid-stream for man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks.Craft malicious payloads that exploit common protocol flaws, like incorrect header parsing or state machine errors.Automate advanced reconnaissance to discover and map an opponent's network from the protocol layer up.Why This Book Is Different
Instead of relying on off-the-shelf tools, you'll build your own from scratch. Each chapter provides detailed, hands-on Python code and practical examples for exploiting vulnerabilities in protocols like TCP, UDP, and ICMP. The book also goes beyond the basics to cover more specialized protocols and advanced techniquesused in modern cyber warfare.
Whether you're a seasoned security professional, a network administrator, or a curious student of cyber security, Python Protocol Exploits will equip you with the knowledge and tools to proactively defend against sophisticated threats by understanding exactly how they work.
