* Package name : slowloris Version : 0.14.2 Upstream Contact: Gokberk Yaltirakli <opensou...@gkbrk.com> * URL : https://github.com/gkbrk/slowloris * License : MIT/Expat Programming Lang: Python Description : Security testing tool for web servers Open source tool used to perform Denial of Service (DoS) attacks on web servers. Slowloris exploits a vulnerability in web servers called “Keep-Alive” to exhaust server resources and make them inaccessible. . Slowloris offers a number of configurable options, allowing fine-grained control over request behavior. Some of which include: - Web Server Port: It is possible to specify the web server port to be the target of the action, usually port 80. - Number of Sockets: You can determine the number of simultaneous sockets that the tool will use to send requests to the server. - Log Increase (Verbose): The level of detail of the information logged during the run can be adjusted, allowing a more detailed analysis of the results. - User agent randomization: Slowloris can randomize user agents on each request, making it difficult to detect the destination server. - Use of SOCKS5 proxy: The tool supports the use of a SOCKS5 proxy to further hide the source of requests. - Use of HTTPS for Requests: In addition, it is possible to configure the tool to use the HTTPS protocol for requests, adding another layer of obscurity. - Time interval between headers: You can specify a time interval between sending request headers, controlling the rate of requests.
