Repository Details

Heffalump is an endless honeypot

Heffalump GoDoc Go Report Card

Heffalump is an endless honeypot that gives malicious bots nightmares. To use, in your robots.txt tell robots not to go to a certain URL, which heffalump is reverse proxying. Any web agent that does go to the URL will receive an endless stream of random data, which will overflow its memory and/or storage if it doesn't have a max buffer size set or at the very least severely waste its time.

The source of the honeypot data is Once On a Time, one of A. A. Milne's most beloved and most public domain works.

Exploding Heffalump

Live example: Do not follow this link. It will flood your browser's memory and likely cause a crash.

Installation

First install Go.

If you just want to install the binary to your current directory and don't care about the source code, run

GOBIN=$(pwd) GOPATH=$(mktemp -d) go get github.com/carlmjohnson/heffalump
