A swiss army knife package to help with ethereum smart contract exploit interaction, designed with CTF challenges in mind. Some might call it a set of pwn tools for ethereum exploitation.
ethpwn is a project inspired by the widely popular CTF exploitation framework pwntools, and the amazing enhanced GDB utility GEF. In other words, ethpwn is all you ever wanted for debugging and interacting with smart contracts on EVM-based blockchains.
More practically, this package includes a kick-ass command line debugger for simulating and re-playing Ethereum transactions (ethdbg), and a set of convenient wrappers for many web3 functionalities that are useful for interacting with smart contracts.
pip install ethpwn
Make sure your pip version is >= 23.1.2, then:
git clone git@github.com:ethpwn/ethpwn.git && cd ./ethpwn && pip install -e .
| ❗️ Note |

To start out, if you haven't created your global config before, you should run ethpwn config create to generate your initial configuration file. This command will interactively prompt you for the most important settings, including the Ethereum node URL to use and wallets you want to use. |
