Yersinia is a network tool designed to take advantage of some weakness in different network protocols. Yersinia pretends to be a solid framework for analyzing and testing the deployed networks and systems.

Currently, there are some network protocols implemented, but others are coming (tell us which one is your preferred). Attacks for the following network protocols are implemented (but of course you are free for implementing new ones):

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP).
Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP).
Dynamic Trunking Protocol (DTP).
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
Hot Standby Router Protocol (HSRP).
802.1q.
Inter-Switch Link Protocol (ISL).
VLAN Trunking Protocol (VTP).

Requirements:
libnet
libpcap 0.8.3

What's New in This Release:
A new GTK interface was added.
A new protocol was added: 802.1x.
Lots of bugfixes were made.
The core has been developed in order to easily integrate new protocols or attacks.
More documentation was written.
