Enter : a proof-of-concept Linux Kernel Module (LKM) that performs ARP hijacking directly from NF_INET_POST_ROUTING and NF_INET_LOCAL_IN Netfilter hooks. By staying in kernel space, kArp achieves microsecond-level response times and deterministic spoofing.

| Hook | Direction | Purpose | |------|-----------|---------| | NF_INET_POST_ROUTING | Outgoing packets | Poison the machine by sending spoofed ARP replies | | NF_INET_LOCAL_IN | Incoming packets | Intercept replies to prevent detection (optional) | Enter : a proof-of-concept Linux Kernel Module (LKM)
The code for kArp is intentionally small (~450 LOC) – easy to audit, easy to weaponize. I’ll release it on GitHub under an educational license in the coming weeks. ARP spoofing is a 40-year-old attack, but it refuses to die. Until IPv6 with Secure Neighbor Discovery (SEND) is universal, and until every switch runs DAI, kernel-level ARP tricks will remain in every serious attacker’s toolkit. I’ll release it on GitHub under an educational
Stay curious, and hack responsibly.
