ProxyChains-ng

Featured

⚖️ Dual Use · C

ProxyChains-ng is a preloader which hooks calls to sockets in dynamically linked programs and redirects them through one or more SOCKS/HTTP proxies. It allows you to use SSH, Telnet, wget, and virtually any TCP application through a proxy chain. It supports SOCKS4, SOCKS5, and HTTP CONNECT proxy servers and allows mixing different proxy types in the same chain. Widely used for pivoting through compromised hosts and anonymous scanning.

Installation

$ apt install proxychains4

Use Cases

  • Routing tools through SOCKS proxies for anonymity
  • Pivoting through compromised hosts during pentests
  • Chaining multiple proxies for operational security
  • Forcing non-proxy-aware tools through proxy tunnels
