Session Hijacking
Session hijacking is a form of attack where an attacker takes over a valid session between a client and a server. This allows the attacker to gain unauthorized access to the victim's account or services without needing to authenticate. Essentially, the attacker intercepts or predicts session tokens (such as cookies or session IDs) used to identify a user and impersonates the legitimate user. Tools like Caido, Hetty, Bettercap, and Wireshark are often used in cybersecurity to monitor, manipulate, and exploit network traffic, including those used in session hijacking.
