WifiPumpkin3 vs OWASP ZAP: Which Email Scrapper tool is Best in 2025?

WifiPumpkin3 is a powerful open-source wireless network auditing framework for ethical hacking, integrated into Kali Linux (version 2024.06.R1). As a rogue access point attack tool for cybersecurity, it creates fake Wi-Fi networks to perform man-in-the-middle attacks, making it a top wireless credential harvesting tool for penetration testing. Written in Python 3.8+ with a 29.24 MB size, it offers a Metasploit-like interface and sub-tools like CaptiveFlask for custom captive portals.

OWASP ZAP (Zed Attack Proxy), developed by OWASP (Open Web Application Security Project), is a versatile, open-source web application security scanner pre-installed on Kali Linux. It is designed for penetration testers, developers, and security enthusiasts to identify vulnerabilities in web applications. Acting as a man-in-the-middle proxy, ZAP intercepts and modifies HTTP/HTTPS traffic, enabling active and passive scanning, fuzzing, and API testing. Its user-friendly GUI, automation framework, and heads-up display (HUD) make it accessible for beginners and powerful for experts. With features like spidering, brute-forcing, and marketplace add-ons, ZAP is ideal for detecting issues like SQL injection, XSS, and CSRF, ensuring robust web security.
