Mitmproxy is a popular, open-source web proxy software that can be used to intercept, inspect, and modify HTTP and HTTPS traffic. In this tutorial, we will learn how to install mitmproxy on Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before we get started, you’ll need:
Before installing mitmproxy, you should update your system packages to the latest version. Run the following command:
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y
This will update all installed packages and upgrade the system to the latest version.
Once the package update is complete, you can install mitmproxy using the command:
sudo apt install mitmproxy -y
This command will download and install mitmproxy and all its dependencies.
To verify that mitmproxy has been installed successfully, run the following command:
mitmproxy --version
This will display the version of mitmproxy installed on your system.
You can start the mitmproxy server using the command:
mitmproxy
This will start the server on the default port 8080.
You can test the installation by configuring a web browser to use the mitmproxy server as a proxy server. Open your favorite web browser and configure the proxy settings to point to the IP address of your Ubuntu server and port 8080.
Once you’ve configured the proxy settings, browse the web and verify that mitmproxy is intercepting and logging the traffic.
