mitmproxy 8.1.1

Mitmproxy is an open-source, powerful proxy server designed to capture, inspect, and modify network traffic. It is developed by the mitmproxy team and supports modern protocols such as HTTP/2 and WebSocket. Users can use Mitmproxy intercepting proxy for testing, debugging, and security assessment.

Mitmproxy works by intercepting the network traffic between the client and server. It can be used to view and modify request and response data before it gets sent to the server or client. It can also perform SSL/TLS certificate configuration, which can be useful for troubleshooting complex application problems.

One of the unique features of Mitmproxy is that it has a web-based interface called "mitmweb" that provides a user-friendly experience for interacting with the intercepted network traffic. The interface makes it easy to browse through intercepted requests and responses and view detailed information about each one. Mitmweb also provides easy export capabilities for collected data.

Another great feature of Mitmproxy is its comprehensive scripting API that allows users to write scripts in Python that can be used to automate repetitive tasks or apply custom modifications to the intercepted traffic. With the scripting API, users can easily extend Mitmproxy's functionality without having to modify its source code.

Mitmproxy is an excellent tool for anyone who needs to inspect, manipulate, or debug network traffic. Its flexibility, scripting API, and web-based interface make it an excellent choice for security researchers or developers.
