A minimalist approach to replay pcap dumped TCP sessions with modification as required.
The aim of this project is to build an usable but simplistic tool which can help in selecting the TCP session to replay. It can play both client as well as the server during a replay session.
Obviously replay attacks doesn't work against protocols which are cryptographically hardened or implements protocol specific replay preventation mechanism like challenge/response etc. Wireplay implements a plugin/hook subsystem mainly for the purpose of working around those replay prevention mechanism and also perform a certain degree of fuzz testing.
It also won't work out of the box for certain non-deterministic sessions like say:
C> GET /abc.tar.gz HTTP/1.1\r\n... S> HTTP 404 Not Found ...
C> GET /abc.tar.gz HTTP/1.1\r\n.. S> HTTP 200 Found
./wireplay -K --role client --port 80 --target 127.0.0.1 -L -F ./pcap/http.dump
The above runs wireplay with TCP checksum calculation disabled, replaying an HTTP session from ./pcap/http.dump file.
./wireplay --role client -F ./pcap/dcedump.dump --target 172.16.34.129 --port 135
The above example reads a dcedump (Dave Aitel's dcedump) session from the file dcedump.dump (pcap dump file) and replays it.

libnids-1.23 had does not set certain pointers to NULL during nids_exit() and hence refers to invalid free'd memory during next nids_init() and tcp capture and crashes. The patched version of libnids in the $(pwd) needs to be used until it is fixed upstream.

TCP Checksum Offloading: Modern NIC hardwares support TCP/UDP checksum calculation in hardware. So OS Network Stack might write packets to NIC with incorrect/null checksum expecting the NIC to calculate and re-write appropriate checksum before xmit. As a result sniffed TCP packets might have incorrect checksums which won't be picked up by NIDS unless checksumming is disabled.
For modern hardwares, its safe to run wireplay with -K to disabled NIDS checksuming by default.
