DDoS Dissector
The Dissector summarizes DDoS attack traffic from stored traffic captures (pcap/flows). The resulting summary is in the form of a DDoS Fingerprint; a JSON file in which the attack's characteristics are described.
How to use the Dissector
Option 1: in Docker
You can run DDoS Dissector in a docker container. This way, you do not have to install dependencies yourself and can start analyzing traffic captures right away. The only requirement is to have Docker installed and running.
- Pull the docker image from docker hub:
docker pull ddosclearinghouse/dissector - Run dissector in a docker container:
Note: We bind-mount the config file with DDoS-DB and MISP tokens to
docker run -i --network="host" \ --mount type=bind,source=/abs-path/to/config.ini,target=/etc/config.ini \ -v /abs-path/to/data:/data \ ddosclearinghouse/dissector -f /data/capture_file [options]/etc/config.ini, and create a volume mount for the location of capture files. We use the local network to also allow connections to a locally running instance of DDoS-DB or MISP. Fingerprints are saved inyour-data-volume/fingerprints
Option 2: Installed locally
-
Install the dependencies to read PCAPs (tshark) and Flows (nfdump):
-
Clone the Dissector repository
git clone https://github.com/ddos-clearing-house/ddos_dissector; cd ddos_dissector; -
[Advised] create a python virtual environment or conda environment for the dissector and install the python requirements:
Venv:
python -m venv ./python-venv source python-venv/bin/activate pip install -r requirements.txtconda create -n dissector python=3.10 conda activate dissector pip install -r requirements.txt -
Get a traffic capture file to be analized (PCAP files should have the
.pcapextension, Flows should have the.nfdumpextension) -
Run the dissector:
python src/main.py -f data/attack_traffic.nfdump --summary

Path to Flow / PCAP file(s)
--summary Optional: print fingerprint without source addresses
--output OUTPUT Path to directory in which to save the fingerprint (default ./fingerprints)
--config CONFIG Path to DDoS-DB and/or MISP config file (default /etc/config.ini)
--nprocesses N Number of processes used to concurrently read PCAPs (default is the number of CPU cores)
--target TARGET Optional: target IP address or subnet of this attack
--ddosdb Optional: directly upload fingerprint to DDoS-DB
--misp Optional: directly upload fingerprint to MISP
--noverify Optional: Don't verify TLS certificates
--debug Optional: show debug messages
--show-target Optional: Do NOT anonymize the target IP address / network in the fingerprint
Example: python src/main.py -f /data/part1.nfdump /data/part2.nfdump --summary --config ./localhost.ini --ddosdb --noverify
