Abstract

MITM attacks are a security threat that deals with threats which involve communication channels between distinct users and permit the opponent to interfere and control the communication flow. These attacks are specific to mobile app frameworks; thus, they regard data relevance and privacy, eradicating confidence in electronic interactions. Here, MITM attacks occur when communication between two parties is intercepted has been shown using the KALI Linux tool. The TCP shell also used to reflect, that the assailant can capture screenshots, viably checking client actions without their information. Furthermore, the compromised gadget can stream live video through the camera, posing serious security and security dangers.
