pythem is a multi-purpose penetration testing framework written in Python 2.7, providing an interactive CLI for security researchers. It bundles ARP/DNS spoofing, man-in-the-middle attacks, brute-force, packet analysis, scanning, and fuzzing capabilities.

Use cases

  • perform arp spoofing man-in-the-middle attacks
  • brute force ssh or web login forms
  • sniff and parse network packets
  • scan websites for xss vulnerabilities
  • spoof dns to redirect lan traffic
  • fuzz web parameters
  • generate and inject network packets

When to choose

  • you need an all-in-one interactive pentest toolkit on Linux
  • you want to combine MITM spoofing with credential harvesting in one tool
  • you prefer a scriptable Python framework for network attacks

When to avoid

  • you need a maintained tool - last release was 2019 and it targets Python 2.7
  • you need Windows or macOS support
  • you want a modern framework with active community updates
