This document summarizes the capabilities of the Ettercap tool, which can intercept and alter network traffic. It discusses how Ettercap can intercept passwords through sniffing protocols like FTP, intercept DNS requests to redirect to illegitimate IP addresses, and sniff SSL traffic by injecting its own unsigned certificate. Studies show that many users will ignore certificate warnings. The document provides examples of how Ettercap can be used for these purposes and discusses ways to potentially detect or prevent its use.
