Description-en: application layer Denial of Service attacks simulation tool
SlowHTTPTest is a highly configurable tool that simulates some application
layer Denial of Service attacks.
.
It implements most common low-bandwidth application layer Denial of Service
attacks, such as
* Slowloris
* Slow HTTP POST
* Slow Read attack (based on TCP persist timer exploit) by draining
concurrent connections pool
* Apache Range Header attack by causing very significant memory and CPU
usage on the server.
