A new Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) tool called Cliver was announced by a hacker on a well-known hacking forum, promising powerful capabilities and a variety of methods to disrupt online services.
Cliver has several attack methods, including strong HTTP/2 header (http2) attacks, bypassed TLS floods (tls), high-speed HTTP/2 bypassed floods (http-rose), Cloudflare's HTTP DDoS bypass (http-ddos) , low-speed HTTP/2 flooders for protected sites (http-zeus), high-demand HTTP/1.1 floods for HTTP sites (http-blue), and high-demand flooders with bypass and headers (http-star).
In addition, it has browser emulation for CAPTCHA bypass (browser) and browser emulation with proxies and headers (browserv2).
Cliver is described as a powerful Layer 7 (L7) DDoS panel with multiple private methods that can be installed on both Linux and Windows operating systems. It is capable of sending up to 500.000 requests per second using only one device. It also performs automatic scraping and uses HTTP proxies.
The tool is sold for $20, with payment accepted in various cryptocurrencies, in addition to Bitcoin (BTC) and Tether (USDT).
This announcement highlights the continued evolution of DDoS tools, making it easier for malicious users to launch sophisticated attacks. Cliver's affordable price and advanced features underline the importance of strong cyber security measures which all online services should have.
