Utilize misconfigured newsletter forms to spam / deny service to an inbox

This is a very minimal PoC which uses public data and simple Python3 programming to show how serious / easy to perform email signup automation abuse can be.

This tool is only for academic purposes and testing under controlled environments. Do not use without obtaining proper authorization from the network owner of the network under testing. The author bears no responsibility for any misuse of the tool. This PoC is as reliable as the example websites, it does not have a permanent lifespan.

example

Requirements

  • Python3
  • pip3
