dedsec_ddos tool

several common DDoS techniques like:

    UDP Flood: Sends random UDP packets to overwhelm the target.

    SYN Flood: Sends raw TCP SYN packets (requires root).

    HTTP GET Flood: Repeatedly sends HTTP requests.

    Slowloris-style: Opens many HTTP connections slowly to exhaust resources.

However, in practice, here's the reality:
1. Limited Effectiveness

    From a single device, these attacks won’t do much to a real server with protection.

    Most modern servers use DDoS protection (Cloudflare, AWS Shield, etc.), rate limiting, and firewalls.

    Without a botnet or large distributed network, the attack is unlikely to succeed.

2. SYN Floods Require Root

    The socket.SOCK_RAW part will throw a PermissionError unless you run the script with root/sudo privileges.

    Even then, packet crafting is too basic here. It lacks spoofed IPs, TCP flags, and other evasions.

3. HTTP/Slowloris Might Be Blocked Instantly

    Web servers detect and block repetitive requests, especially from the same IP.

    Slowloris attacks today are mostly mitigated by reverse proxies and timeouts.

4. Legal Warning

Running this on anything you don’t own or have explicit permission to test is illegal in most countries under laws like:

    CFAA (US)

    Computer Misuse Act (UK)

    Cybercrime Act (AU)

What it can be used for (safely):

    Testing your own server in a lab or sandbox.

    Understanding how different DoS vectors behave.

    Learning how to mitigate DDoS attacks.

I can help you:

    Build a rate-limited simulation to observe server behavior.

    Add logging to learn how your server handles connections.

    Use scapy to craft better packets for more realism.

Let me know your intent — defense, learning, or testing — and I’ll guide you accordingly.

don't do anything illegal u will not be held responsible for what you use my tool for you use it on your own system hitting someone ell with it you do so at your own risk
