Network Configuration
Caveman ASCII art of my network configuration:
-------------------- -------------- | Router |---------| kronos | | | | 10.0.0.19 | | | -------------- | | -------------- | 10.0.0.1 |---------| mars | | | | 10.0.0.133 | -------------------- --------------
Attacker/Sheep
In this scenario, the attacker Kronos 10.0.0.19 will be attacking the sheep Mars 10.0.0.133
Both are running Kali Linux.
The Attack
As described on the ARP Poisoning attack page, this attacks the lookup table that every router has that maps IP addresses to MAC addresses. If an attacker can modify entries in that table, they can receive all traffic intended for another party, make a connection to that party, and forward it along, tampering with the sheep's information.
