Fedora EPEL Update Notification
FEDORA-EPEL-2013-12451
2013-12-21 17:35:20
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : dsniff
Product : Fedora EPEL 6
Version : 2.4
Release : 0.17.b1.el6
URL :

Summary : Tools for network auditing and penetration testing
Description :
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). Sshmitm and webmitm implement
active monkey-in-the-middle attacks against redirected SSH and HTTPS sessions
by exploiting weak bindings in ad-hoc PKI.

Update Information:
- Corrected patch which touches tabular data stream protocol handler
- Added a patch to add both communication partners in arpspoof
- Added patch to allow multiple targets to be imitated simultaniously
- Added patch to allow the selection of source hw address in arpspoof
- Added a patch which fixes and modernizes the POP decoder
- Fixed segmentation faults related to libnet_name2addr4() (#1009879)
- Added a patch to fix bit-shift in pntohl() macro (#714958, #850496)
- Avoid xdrs being used without being initialised (#715042, #850494)
