Impacket

Impacket is a collection of Python classes for working with network protocols, focused on low-level packet access and protocol implementation.

Introduction

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.
