Shellter vs dSniff vs Ghiro: Which Speech Assistant tool is Best in 2025?

Shellter is an open-source dynamic shellcode injection tool, pre-installed on Kali Linux, designed for injecting malicious code into 32-bit Windows portable executable (PE) files while evading antivirus detection. Known as a dynamic PE infector, Shellter, developed by kyREcon, allows penetration testers and red teamers to embed custom or Metasploit-generated shellcode into legitimate Windows applications without altering suspicious file attributes. Its Stealth Mode preserves the original functionality of infected executables, making it ideal for ethical hacking and security assessments.

dSniff is a powerful, open-source collection of network auditing and penetration testing tools developed by Dug Song for capturing and analyzing network traffic. Integrated into Kali Linux, dSniff is designed to intercept cleartext data, perform man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks, and expose vulnerabilities in unencrypted or weakly encrypted protocols. With tools like arpspoof, dnsspoof, and dsniff, it enables ethical hackers and security professionals to test network security, sniff passwords, and manipulate traffic in controlled environments.

Ghiro is an open-source, automated digital image forensics platform available for installation on Kali Linux, designed to analyze images, extract metadata, detect manipulations, and uncover hidden data. Developed by volunteers, Ghiro processes formats like JPEG, PNG, and TIFF, offering features such as Error Level Analysis (ELA), metadata extraction, and hash verification. With a web-based interface and support for case management, it’s ideal for forensic analysts, cybersecurity professionals, and ethical hackers conducting image authenticity investigations. Ghiro’s Virtual Appliance and Ubuntu-based setup simplify deployment, making it accessible for digital forensic labs.
