Slowloris is a little complicated to mitigate, because it simulate a
real conection. I've used some rules on iptables based on packet
count/seconds if the access activate the rule it will be about 5 seconds
blocked.... 

But first you need to have some ideia about the real traffic and users
access from proxy.

Blocking this attack using -j reject isnt a good solve, because you use
some bandwidth generating the bad response, -j drop works fine.

Check out sshbalck.

I know it's for ssh BUT changing the log file for it look at and the strings
it's looking for makes it a very effective little perl script.


Thanks,

Hey everybody!

I have some serious problems with flooding attacks to my apache2. No
problems with logins oder syn floods, just a huge amount of simple
requests to my server from the same ip. Anyone got a nice howto on that
or maybe a nice regex prepared for counting such requests and blocking
the greedy ones?

thanks in advance
Kai
