Basic Sniffer
To code a sniffer in C (Linux) the steps would be :
1. Create a Raw Socket.
2. Put it in a recvfrom loop.
A raw socket when put in recvfrom receives all incoming packets. The following code shows an example of such a sniffer. Note that it sniffs only incoming packets. For sniffing all traffic on a network a packet capture library like libpcap can be used.

|
$ gcc sniffer.c && sudo ./a.out

The program must be run as root user or superuser privileges. e.g. sudo ./a.out in ubuntu
The program creates raw sockets which require root access.
The output in the log file is something like this :

sock_raw = socket(AF_INET , SOCK_RAW , IPPROTO_TCP);

For UDP and ICMP the declaration has to be :
|
1
2
|
sock_raw = socket(AF_INET , SOCK_RAW , IPPROTO_UDP);
sock_raw = socket(AF_INET , SOCK_RAW , IPPROTO_ICMP);
|
You might be tempted to think of doing :
|
1
|
sock_raw = socket(AF_INET , SOCK_RAW , IPPROTO_IP);
|
but this will not work , since IPPROTO_IP is a dummy protocol not a real one.
2. This sniffer picks up only incoming packets.
3. It provides the application with IP frames, which means that ethernet headers are not available.
4. It is not very accurate since it misses out some packets even in the incoming ones.
5. libpcap can also be used to write sniffers. Code example here.
In Part 2 we shall see how the above mentioned drawbacks can be overcome.
