This article explains how to create a raw socket and use it to do an SYN or ACK or XMAS scan using python, note that you could also use it to make a Denial of Service attack (syn flooding ...)See code below:
import socket,structfrom struct import *# checksum functions needed for tcp checksum , found it in internetdef checksum(msg):s = 0# loop taking 2 characters at a timefor i in range(0, len(msg), 2):w = (ord(msg[i]) << 8) + (ord(msg[i+1]) )s = s + ws = (s>>16) + (s & 0xffff);#s = s + (s >> 16);#complement and mask to 4 byte shorts = ~s & 0xffffreturn s#create a raw sockettry:s = socket.socket(socket.AFINET, socket.SOCKRAW, socket.IPPROTOTCP)except socket.error , msg:print 'Socket could not be created.
