In plain English

MHDDoS is a Python script that performs DDoS (Distributed Denial of Service) attacks, a technique where a target website or server is flooded with so many requests that it becomes slow or completely unavailable. The tool offers 57 different attack methods organized into two categories: Layer 7 (targeting the web application itself with requests like HTTP floods, bypassing services like Cloudflare, DDoS Guard, and Google Shield) and Layer 4 (targeting lower-level network traffic with techniques like TCP, UDP, and SYN floods). Layer 7 attacks mimic web browser behavior to overwhelm a site, while Layer 4 attacks target the raw network connection. The tool also supports auto-proxy usage, meaning it can route attack traffic through other servers to mask the source. The README itself notes: "Please Don't Attack websites without the owner's consent." This tool is written in Python 3 and is generally used in the context of cybersecurity research, stress testing your own infrastructure for resilience, or, when done without permission, as a malicious attack tool. Using it against websites or servers you do not own or have explicit permission to test is illegal in most jurisdictions.
