Waste Flooding

Phishing Retaliation Tool

Requirements

• Install Python 3.7.4 (last version)
• Pip will be installed by default

Install the following libraries using pip:

pip install gevent
pip install requests
pip install lxml

Usage

To use the tool, just run the command from the starting folder (replacing URL with the target):

python waste.py URL

Options

-v or -verbose

If you want to see the attack structure, just add "-v" or "-verbose" to your call:

python waste.py URL -v
python waste.py URL -verbose

-min and -max

To define custom minimum and maximum waiting time, just add "-min" and/or "-max", respectively, followed by desired values (in seconds):

python waste.py URL -min 0 -max 5000
python waste.py URL -min 5
python waste.py URL -max 5000

-r

To reset proxy list, just add "-r" as argument. You don't need to pass an URL if you only want to reset your proxy collection:

python waste.py URL -r
python waste.py -r

Big Thanks:

• Placidina for the GetProxies - I am still integrating other calls on the tool, but I want to thank you in advance
