A lightweight and educational penetration testing utility built with Python and Scapy. Developed as a graduation project during my cybersecurity diploma, this tool mimics core features of hping and focuses on specific denial-of-service (DoS) attack vectors.
- Simulates TCP flood attacks on target IP addresses
- DHCP starvation module for network resource exhaustion
- Custom packet crafting using Scapy
- CLI-style operation (no need to call
python3) - Built for and tested on Kali Linux
After installation, run the tool using:
DoS SYN -s -t <target_ip>
DoS ACK -a -t <target_ip>
DoS ICMP -i -t <target_ip>
DoS DHCP d-Python 3 -Scapy -Kali Linux (for development & testing)
To install as a globally accessible command-line tool: chmod +x DoS sudo mv DoS /usr/local/bin/
DoS SYN -s -t 127.0.0.1
Demo runs performed on isolated local test network
This project was developed as part of our final graduation requirement for a cybersecurity diploma. It served as a practical learning exercise in packet manipulation, network-based DoS techniques, and ethical tool design. Built collaboratively with classmates, it demonstrates both technical skill and academic achievemen
This tool is intended strictly for educational purposes. Do not use it on networks or devices without explicit permission. Unauthorized use may be illegal.
