Solsniff

Overview

Vendor Description

 sunsniffer.c modified to run on dlpi systems, notably solaris 2.x.

Category

 Sniffer: A wiretap that eavesdrops on computer networks. The attacker must be between the sender and the receiver in order to sniff traffic. This is easy in corporations using shared media. Sniffers are frequently used as part of automated programs to sift information off the wire, such as clear-text passwords, and sometimes password hashes (to be cracked).
