if you have the balls to attempt to use smudge you should be given a medal... it has no documentation and is broken in many aspects and anyone who isn't me tends to use it the wrong way. i actually havn't looked ran it/looked at it for over six months. therefore i recommend the use of spike. it's not written in python and it *appears* as if it is broken on purpose sometimes so 0day found with it before it's release stays 0day. but it's still rad.

For security oriented tools, one I enjoyed quite a lot is SMUDGE:

it's a really nice fuzzer, similar to SPIKE :)

have fun!

Ruby is a fun to bang out, but few people can code in Ruby.

Hi folks,
What can be the best scripting language that will allow me to write scripts
needed for network security purpose.
It shoul be extensible,can import various libraries,and be able to run on
multi platforms.

What can be the best option among:

1>SHELL SCRIPTING
2>RUBY
3>PERL

What are their strengths and weaknesses.


Thanks'
