A Python program that creates a fake wireless access point and performs man-in-the-middle data sniffing using tools like SSLstrip2, mitmproxy, Driftnet, and TShark. It is designed for Kali Linux and Raspberry Pi (Raspbian) and requires root privileges and compatible wireless hardware.

Use cases

• set up a fake wifi access point for penetration testing
• sniff traffic from clients connected to a rogue AP
• capture images and pcaps from network traffic
• perform SSL stripping and HSTS bypass in a lab
• spoof DNS on a test network
• run a man-in-the-middle proxy on Kali Linux

When to choose

• you need a quick rogue AP setup for authorized wifi security assessments on Kali Linux
• you want an educational MITM lab environment on a Raspberry Pi
• you prefer an all-in-one script that wires up mitmproxy, SSLstrip2, Driftnet, and TShark

When to avoid

• you need a maintained or supported tool - the project is explicitly unmaintained
• you are on modern Linux distros or hardware where the dependencies may no longer work
• you lack authorization to test the target network - this is illegal without consent
