+SlowHTTPTest is a highly configurable tool that simulates some Application
Layer
+Denial of Service attacks.
+
+It implements most common low-bandwidth Application Layer DoS attacks, such
as
+slowloris, Slow HTTP POST, Slow Read attack (based on TCP persist timer
exploit)
+by draining concurrent connections pool, as well as Apache Range Header
attack
+by causing very significant memory and CPU usage on the server.
+
+Slowloris and Slow HTTP POST DoS attacks rely on the fact that the HTTP
protocol,
+by design, requires requests to be completely received by the server before
they
+are processed. If an HTTP request is not complete, or if the transfer rate is
+very low, the server keeps its resources busy waiting for the rest of the
data.
+If the server keeps too many resources busy, this creates a denial of
service.
+This tool is sending partial HTTP requests, trying to get denial of service
from
+target HTTP server.
+
+Slow Read DoS attack aims the same resources as slowloris and slow POST, but
+instead of prolonging the request, it sends legitimate HTTP request and reads
+the response slowly.
