Impacket is a powerful collection of Python classes designed for network protocol manipulation. It provides low-level programmatic access to network packets, enabling users to construct, dissect, and analyze network traffic with ease.
Key features:
- Low-Level Packet Access: Construct packets from scratch or parse them from raw data.
- Protocol Implementation: Includes high-level implementations of SMB1-3 and MSRPC.
- Authentication Support: Supports plain, NTLM, and Kerberos authentication.
- MSRPC Interfaces: Offers portions or full implementations of EPM, DTYPES, LSAD, and more.
- Versatile Transports: Works over TCP, SMB/TCP, SMB/NetBIOS, and HTTP.
Use Cases:
- Developing network penetration testing tools.
- Analyzing network protocol vulnerabilities.
- Creating custom network communication stacks.
- Automating network administration tasks.
- Educational purposes for learning network protocols.
