rshijack
A TCP connection hijacking tool written in Rust, enabling packet injection into established connections.
What is rshijack?
rshijack is a network security tool written in Rust that hijacks TCP connections by injecting packets into established sessions. It solves the problem of manipulating live TCP connections for security testing, penetration testing, and CTF challenges where direct access to a service is restricted.
Security researchers, penetration testers, and CTF participants who need to intercept and manipulate TCP traffic in controlled testing environments.
Developers choose rshijack because it's a modern, efficient Rust rewrite of the classic 2001 shijack tool, offering reliable TCP connection manipulation with raw sockets and sequence number analysis without unnecessary complexity.
