Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Passwordlist in Wireshark - User feedback wanted

[Alexis La Goutte <alexis.lagoutte@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

i like the idea and for me it is not a problem (and yes it will be better to use credential and not password...)

For example, there is tools like NetworkMiner and it is not a hacking tools...

Cheers

Hi

There is a patch currently waiting for inclusion. It would allow for dissectors to easily make credentials (username/password) available and present them in a tool window in Wireshark.

The main concern here is, that this could lead companies, evaluating Wireshark to be used within  the company, to deny the use of the program, due to wrongly identifying Wireshark as a hacking tool.

We would like your feedback on that topic

kind regards

Roland
