Man-in-the-Middle Attack
(HTTP)
Dawit T.Haile, Dec20
2014
 The man-in-the middle attack intercepts a
communication between two systems.
 For example, in an http transaction the target
is the TCP connection between client and
server.
 The MITM(http) attack is very effective because
of the nature of the http protocol and data
transfer which are all ASCII based.
 There are several tools to realize a MITM
attack(http). These tools are particularly
efficient in LAN network environments.
 tcpdump and wireshark are the tools that can
be used to attack the victims in the network
nodes.
 In this scenario is I am using Wireshark, to
attack the vulnerability in between the network
nods.
 Wireshark is a powerful network protocol
analyzer. It can go to the deepest level of
packet inspection .
 CWE-318: Clear text Storage of Sensitive Information in
Executable.
 Summary:
The application stores sensitive information in clear text
in an executable.
Extended Description :
Attackers can reverse engineer binary code to obtain
secret data. This is especially easy when the clear text is
plain ASCII. Even if the information is encoded in a way
that is not human readable, certain techniques could
determine which encoding is being used, then decode the
information.
