ARP spoofing is a method where attackers send fake Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) messages within a Local Area Network (LAN). The goal is typically to link the attacker’s MAC address to the IP address of another device, such as the default gateway. As a result, traffic intended for that IP address is redirected to the attacker. This technique can enable attackers to intercept, alter, or completely block data traffic on a LAN. It is often used as a precursor to other attacks, including denial of service, man-in-the-middle, session hijacking, or even IP address spoofing to further manipulate or disguise malicious activity.
