Well, I haven't seen anything that specific, but I suppose creating one just with netcat and a shell script wouldn't be 
too hard. As a matter of fact, I think that is the easiest way.

And if you know any perl scripting, lib-www-perl (LWP) is great and simple, and doing little stress test scripts 
shouldn't take more than 3-10 mins.

Subject: Security tool for monitoring HTTP headers?


Does anyone know of a security tool for modifying HTTP 
headers directly?
For example if I wanted to verify that there was proper input 
validation
against some of the data in a POST request, does a tool besides Telnet
exist?  I was considering creating one but I don't want to 
duplicate someone
else's work.

Thanks,

-P
