QuestionQ274

Packet Engineering

Which of the following tools let an attacker deliberately craft packets to obtain unauthorized access?

Each correct answer represents a complete solution.

Choose two
  • A Fragroute
  • B Ettercap
  • C Mendax
  • D Tcpdump
Explanation

Mendax supports TCP desynchronization by injecting specially structured, overlapping TCP segments, and Fragroute deliberately modifies, fragments, reorders, and injects network traffic. These capabilities enable crafted-packet techniques used to evade network defenses. Tcpdump captures traffic, while Ettercap is primarily an interception and man-in-the-middle tool rather than the intended packet-crafting tool.
