Looking for libnet alternatives.

naaman · 06-02-2009, 02:27 PM

Hello,

I'm looking for a good alternative of the libnet librairies that could offer the same kind of things. I tried to find libnet docs on the internet and there is nothing, libnet-1.22 is a perl library whereas the 1.0.X versions were C/C++ librairies, I really don't understand.
The official libnet website (www.packetfactory.net) seems to be down, I spent nearly one hour to find libnet tarballs. Libnet project is dead ?
Do you know another library ?

Thanks,

NAAMAN

Try http://libnet.sf.net. It was my first Google result for "libnet".

Yes, I found this website but the sources available on this website are
outdated and the website too .... Now the official website seems to be
http://www.packetfactory.net but it's down ...
I'm willing to use another library but I don't know if it exists another libray like libnet.

I found several networking A.P.I :
- Torque http://opentnl.sourceforge.net/doxydocs/ (but the project seems to be down ... last update : 2005),
- Sokuwort (where are the sources ?),

Libnet was written by Mike Schiffman (aka route/ daemon9/ infinity) originally for the Phrack magazine. I think it's either feature complete or he no longer maintains it (too busy playing poker in Las Vegas).

If you want Libnet docs, search on phrack.org or securityfocus.com there's a also a mailing list over at securityfocus (though it's long dead)

http://www.packetfactory.net goes offline/ online a lot. But you will probably get the source from packetstorm security website.

There is a Perl module for Libnet (search CPAN).
