CVE-2024-7595 affects GRE and GRE6 implementations of RFC 2784 that do not validate or verify the source of received network packets. An attacker can spoof packets and cause arbitrary traffic to be routed through an exposed network interface, enabling spoofing, access-control bypass, and other unintended network behavior.

This repository provides a scanner and attack suite targeting routers (primarily Cisco) vulnerable to unauthenticated IP-in-IP and GRE packet forwarding (CVE-2020-10136, CVE-2024-7595). The structure includes a Rust-based scanner (scanner/src/main.rs) for identifying vulnerable hosts and a set of Python tools (abuse_honeypot.py, can_i_spoof.py, dns_reflect.py) for exploiting these vulnerabilities. The scanner sends crafted packets to detect hosts that forward encapsulated traffic, while the Python tools enable practical exploitation: verifying spoofing capability, abusing honeypots to generate false abuse reports, and launching DNS reflection/amplification DDoS attacks. The exploit leverages the ability to send spoofed packets from the vulnerable host, bypassing source address validation. The repository is operational, with working code and clear instructions, and is not part of a larger exploit framework.
