Bypass nginx, and DoS a website with Slowloris HTTP DoS? - Linux™ - Apr 2, 2014

The title says it all, I want to find a way to crash a website protected by nginx, the only problem is that it mitigates the attack really well, and doesn't even phase it, and I don't have the resources to put into a botnet at this point in time.

Slowloris - An HTTP Denial Of Service Attack script made in perl. I'm running *nix if that helps any.

Are there any methods to bypass their nginx DDoS mitigation?

Thanks in advance. -Abrin

Or maybe a way to WAF Bypass their admin login, it gives me the error message (Oops! You don't have permission to view this page.) I have tamperdata installed on firefox.

Plus the command I'm using is:
Code
perl slowloris.pl -dns <website url> -port 80 -timeout <set to whatever the test says is okay> 1000

NGINX is a web server. It is not a protection tool.

Well that about sums it up, and idea on how to crash an NGINX Reverse Proxy?
Thanks for clearing up my ignorance. I don't quite understand it.

Really you should just pound it with a UDP attack until it drops.
