Protocol Reverse Engineering
Comprehensive techniques for capturing, analyzing, and documenting network protocols for security research, interoperability, and debugging.
Traffic Capture
Wireshark Capture
bash
# Capture on specific interface
wireshark -i eth0 -k
# Capture with filter
wireshark -i eth0 -k -f "port 443"
# Capture to file
tshark -i eth0 -w capture.pcap
# Ring buffer capture (rotate files)
tshark -i eth0 -b filesize:100000 -b files:10 -w capture.pcaptcpdump Capture
bash
# Basic capture
tcpdump -i eth0 -w capture.pcap
# With filter
tcpdump -i eth0 port 8080 -w capture.pcap
# Capture specific bytes
tcpdump -i eth0 -s 0 -w capture.pcap # Full packet
# Real-time display
tcpdump -i eth0 -X port 80Man-in-the-Middle Capture
bash
# mitmproxy for HTTP/HTTPS
mitmproxy --mode transparent -p 8080
# SSL/TLS interception
mitmproxy --mode transparent --ssl-insecure
# Dump to file
mitmdump -w traffic.mitm
# Burp Suite
# Configure browser proxy to 127.0.0.1:8080Protocol Analysis

python
from scapy.all import *
# Read pcap
packets = rdpcap("capture.pcap")
# Analyze packets
for pkt in packets:
if pkt.haslayer(TCP):
print(f"Src: {pkt[IP].src}:{pkt[TCP].sport}")
print(f"Dst: {pkt[IP].dst}:{pkt[TCP].dport}")
if pkt.haslayer(Raw):
print(f"Data: {pkt[Raw].load[:50]}")
# Filter packets
http_packets = [p for p in packets if p.haslayer(TCP)
and (p[TCP].sport == 80 or p[TCP].dport == 80)]
# Create custom packets
pkt = IP(dst="target")/TCP(dport=80)/Raw(load="GET / HTTP/1.1\r\n")
send(pkt)Protocol Identification
Common Protocol Signatures
HTTP - "HTTP/1." or "GET " or "POST " at start
TLS/SSL - 0x16 0x03 (record layer)
DNS - UDP port 53, specific header format
SMB - 0xFF 0x53 0x4D 0x42 ("SMB" signature)
SSH - "SSH-2.0" banner
FTP - "220 " response, "USER " command
SMTP - "220 " banner, "EHLO" command
MySQL - 0x00 length prefix, protocol version
PostgreSQL - 0x00 0x00 0x00 startup length
Redis - "*" RESP array prefix
MongoDB - BSON documents with specific headerProtocol Header Patterns

Active Testing
Fuzzing with Boofuzz
python
from boofuzz import *
def main():
session = Session(
target=Target(
connection=TCPSocketConnection("target", 8888)
)
)
# Define protocol structure
s_initialize("HELLO")
s_static(b"\x50\x52\x4f\x54") # Magic
s_word(1, name="version") # Version
s_word(0x01, name="type") # Type (HELLO)
s_size("payload", length=4) # Length field
s_block_start("payload")
s_dword(0x12345678, name="client_id")
s_word(0, name="flags")
s_block_end()
session.connect(s_get("HELLO"))
session.fuzz()
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()Replay and Modification
python
from scapy.all import *
# Replay captured traffic
packets = rdpcap("capture.pcap")
for pkt in packets:
if pkt.haslayer(TCP) and pkt[TCP].dport == 8888:
send(pkt)
# Modify and replay
for pkt in packets:
if pkt.haslayer(Raw):
# Modify payload
original = pkt[Raw].load
modified = original.replace(b"client", b"CLIENT")
pkt[Raw].load = modified
# Recalculate checksums
del pkt[IP].chksum
del pkt[TCP].chksum
send(pkt)Best Practices
Analysis Workflow
- Capture traffic: Multiple sessions, different scenarios
- Identify boundaries: Message start/end markers
- Map structure: Fixed header, variable payload
- Identify fields: Compare multiple samples
- Document format: Create specification
- Validate understanding: Implement parser/generator
- Test edge cases: Fuzzing, boundary conditions
Common Patterns to Look For
- Magic numbers/signatures at message start
- Version fields for compatibility
- Length fields (often before variable data)
- Type/opcode fields for message identification
- Sequence numbers for ordering
- Checksums/CRCs for integrity
- Timestamps for timing
- Session/connection identifiers
