Venom
A Multi-hop Proxy for Penetration Testers
Venom is a Go-based multi-hop proxy tool designed for authorized penetration testing, red-team labs, and security education. It helps operators connect multiple nodes and use them as stepping stones for routing traffic across segmented internal networks. The project uses an admin-and-agent architecture, allowing the controller to manage connected nodes and build proxy chains. Venom is useful for studying pivoting, internal routing, SOCKS proxying, and controlled traffic relay in lab or approved assessment environments. It supports several connection and forwarding behaviors, giving testers flexibility when working with different network paths. ...
