HTTPDos: Simulate HTTP Denial of Service Attacks

HTTPDos is a Python-based tool designed to simulate HTTP Denial of Service (DoS) attacks by sending multiple requests to a target host. It allows for multiple threads, random user agents, IP generation, and optional session cookies. The tool also handles SSL connections, redirects, and can generate random referers from a file.

Features

  • Supports both HTTP and HTTPS requests.
  • Handles HTTP redirects and automatically adjusts the target URL.
  • Option to specify the maximum number of concurrent threads.
  • Random user agent generation.
  • Generates random IPs for the X-Forwarded-For header.
  • Optional session cookie support.
  • Continuous attack execution until stopped.

Requirements

  • Python 3.x

  • requests, fake_useragent, ssl, socket, and other built-in libraries.

  • Install the fake_useragent library:

    pip install fake-useragent

Usage

python HTTPDos.py -H <hostname> -P <port> [-p <path>] [-t <threads>] [-c <cookies>]

Parameters

  • -H, --hostname: (Required) The target host (e.g., example.com).
  • -P, --port: (Required) The target port (e.g., 80 for HTTP or 443 for HTTPS).
  • -p, --path: The specific path to attack (optional, defaults to a random parameter).
  • -t, --threads: Maximum number of concurrent threads (optional, defaults to unlimited).
  • -c, --cookies: Session cookie (optional).

Example

python HTTPDos.py -H example.com -P 443 -p login -t 100 -c "sessionid=123456"

How It Works

  • The script generates a random user agent and IP for each request, mimicking real-world traffic.
  • It continuously creates socket connections to the target host, sending crafted HTTP headers.
  • If the target returns a redirect (301, 302), the tool automatically follows the new host and path.
  • The attack stops if a 403 Forbidden response is encountered.
