Changes since previous version:
SI6 Networks' IPv6 Toolkit v1.4.1
* frag6: Fixed bug that prevented Ethernet header from being filled
A bug in the code caused Ethernet frames to go on te wire without any of
their header fields completed.
* All: Use of library to avoid code replication
An "libipv6" library was created, such that common functions do not need
to be replicated for each tool. ni6, ns6, rs6, and tcp6 now employ such
library.
pkgsrc changes:
* address6 and its man page are no longer installed
* extend the Makefile changes to include the correct linkage for rs6 and tcp6
i.e. include the libipv6 object mentioned above
Changes from previous version:
* IPv6-host tracking support in the scan6 tool.
* A new tool, address6, to analyze IPv6 addresses
* Minor bug fixes
* PDF manual pages have been removed
* additional manual pages
pkgsrc changes:
* patch to avoid "uninitialised variable" warning from compiler
troubleshooting package for ipv6, into the Packages Collection. This is version
1.3b.
The SI6 Networks' IPv6 toolkit is a set of IPv6
security/trouble-shooting tools, that can send arbitrary IPv6-based
packets.
flow6: A tool to perform a security asseessment of the IPv6 Flow Label.
frag6: A tool to perform IPv6 fragmentation-based attacks and to
perform a security assessment of a number of fragmentation-related
aspects.
icmp6: A tool to perform attacks based on ICMPv6 error messages.
jumbo6: A tool to assess potential flaws in the handling of IPv6 Jumbograms.
na6: A tool to send arbitrary Neighbor Advertisement messages.
ni6: A tool to send arbitrary ICMPv6 Node Information messages, and
assess possible flaws in the processing of such packets.
ns6: A tool to send arbitrary Neighbor Solicitation messages.
ra6: A tool to send arbitrary Router Advertisement messages.
rd6: A tool to send arbitrary ICMPv6 Redirect messages.
rs6: A tool to send arbitrary Router Solicitation messages.
scan6: An IPv6 address scanning tool.
tcp6: A tool to send arbitrary TCP segments and perform a variety of
TCP-based attacks.
