Description
This strike emulates a large number of requests for pingback calls through the xmlrpc service
available by default on wordpress servers. This kind of requests are used as part of a distributed
denial of service scenario. The requests generated by this strike are identical to what an attacker
would send to reflector and amplificator wordpress servers in order to disrupt service on other
servers.
