One of the most commonly used tactics by shady online enterprises wanting to position themselves as legitimate ones (Shark2 - RAT or Malware?), is to promote malicious software or Denial of Service attack tooks, as remote access control tools/stress testing tools.
Chinese "vendors" of such releases are particularly interesting, since their front pages always position the tool as a 100% legitimate one, whereas going through the documentation, and actually testing its features reveals its true malicious nature. Moreover, once the vendor starts trusting you -- like the one whose DDoS tool is profiled in this post -- you're given access to the private section of their forum, where they are directly pitching you with DDoS for hire propositions, starting from $100 for 24 hours of non-stop flood.
In this post I'll review what's currently being promoted as "The World's Leading DDoS Testing System", which is basically an improved version of a well known "Netbot Attacker", an old school release whose source code (Localizing Open Source Malware; Custom DDoS Capabilities Within a Malware; Custom DDoS Attacks Within Popular Malware Diversifying) is greatly favored by Chinese hacktivists and script kiddies, based on the multiple modifications they've introduced in it using the original source code.
