Cyphon

Low Bandwidth DoS (Denial of Service) tool written for Mac OS X (Friendly GUI) based on RSnake's Slow Loris.

You can use this tool to test for DoS vulnerabilities on your server or to experiment it's potential.

Code Example

I coded the executable in Objective C and Applescript using Xcode. Refer to AppDelegate.applescript.

Motivation

Decided to code an executable OSX version for Mac OS users as there are little server load testers out there for the Mac OS.

SlowLoris seemed to be the best solution for a Mac DoS tool due to its ability of being a low bandwidth yet poisonous HTTP client by using a single IP address to send several partial HTTP requests.

Download and demonstration

You can download the Mac OS X Executable app above (Cyphon.zip). Hold down the Control key and open the Application.

Mitigating the attacks

  • Increase the number of clients your server can host.
