In this tutorial, we are using Metasploit Auxilary SYN Flood to launch the attack “auxiliary/dos/tcp/synflood” .

SYN flood

It is a type of DoS attack which use to send a huge amount of Sync to consume all the resources of the target system.

Let’s start by launching Metasploit by simply typing msfconsole in your terminal Window. It will take a couple of minutes to launch the console.

Then use the select the auxiliary “auxiliary/dos/tcp/synflood” by typing the following command.

msf > use auxiliary/dos/tcp/synflood

Once the auxiliary got loaded type show options to list all the options with the auxiliary. you can define the settings as per your convenient.

Then you should setup RHOST and RPORT which is the target address and the port numbers respectively.

Then to Launch the attack just type exploit, so that sync flooding will start, we placed Wireshark in the target machine to show how many packets hit the machine.

We can see around 127252 packets captured within minutes after the attack launched.

1. Open ID Serve, if there is a security warning pop up appears, click run to proceed the program. Main ID Serve main window will show up, click server query tab

2. Enter the URL for this example will be www.juggyboy.com then click the ‘ Query The Server ‘

3. From the result, the attacker can analyse the vulnerability on the version that ID Serve succeed to footprint

• Create a hard disk for your virtual machine.

• Choose your Hard disk file type as VDI(Virtual Disk Image)

• Choose Dynamically allocated

• Set your Hard disk size 20 GB or greater, and click on create.

Your Virtual machine is ready to install Kali Linux.
