Social-Engineer Toolkit (SET) v1.2 “Shakawkaw” release notes and user manual excerpt describing the introduction of a centralized core library and support for third-party Python modules. The document includes an example test module, console output demonstrating site cloning, Java applet attack prep, backdoored executable creation and Metasploit handler startup, and a list of core API functions (e.g., site_cloner, java_applet_attack, metasploit listener generators, teensy_pde_generator) used to automate social-engineering attacks; it is a tooling/documentation piece rather than an incident report.
