This repository contains a Python exploit script (DoS.py) and a README for CVE-2015-4870, a Denial of Service vulnerability in MySQL's 'procedure analyse' function (vulnerable up to MySQL 5.5.45). The exploit targets web applications that pass user input directly to MySQL queries, such as a PHP script with a vulnerable 'id' parameter. The script constructs a malicious SQL payload and sends it via HTTP requests to the specified endpoint, using multiple threads to amplify the attack. The payload abuses the 'procedure analyse' function to cause the MySQL server to hang or crash, resulting in a DoS condition. The repository is straightforward, with the main exploit logic in DoS.py and supporting documentation in README.md. No hardcoded real-world endpoints are present; the user must specify the target URL.
