What is HULK DDoS?
HULK is a highly efficient DDoS tool designed to overwhelm web servers by flooding them with malicious HTTP requests. Unlike traditional DDoS attacks that rely on sheer volume, HULK uses unique request patterns to evade detection by firewalls and intrusion prevention systems (IPS).
Key Features in HULK DDoS 2024
1. AI-Driven Attack Patterns
- Uses machine learning to analyze firewall responses and adjust attack vectors.
- Mimics legitimate user behavior to bypass rate-limiting and CAPTCHA checks.
2. Cloud-Based Botnet Support
- Can leverage compromised cloud servers for higher attack bandwidth.
- Integrates with IoT botnets (Mirai variants) for larger-scale attacks.
3. Encrypted Attack Traffic (HTTPS Floods)
- Encrypts malicious traffic to evade deep packet inspection (DPI).
- Targets TLS/SSL endpoints, making mitigation harder.
4. Multi-Phase Attacks
- Starts with a slowloris-style attack (keeping connections open).
- Switches to high-volume floods once defenses are weakened.
5. Anti-Mitigation Techniques
- IP Rotation – Cycles through proxy lists to avoid blacklisting.
- Dynamic Payloads – Randomizes POST/GET data to evade WAF (Web Application Firewall) rules.
