# GoUDPflood
This repository contains a Go application designed to create and send UDP packets with a raw socket. It's intended for educational purposes to understand network protocols and raw socket programming in Go.
## Disclaimer
This tool is provided for educational purposes only. Any misuse of this software will not be the responsibility of the author or of any affiliates. The end-user is solely responsible for complying with all applicable laws and regulations in their jurisdiction.
## Prerequisites
- Go 1.20
- Root or Administrator privileges (for raw socket operations)
- Wireshark (for packet analysis, optional)
## Installation
Clone the repository to your local machine:
```sh
git clone https://github.com/araujo88/GoUDPflood.git
cd GoUDPflood
```
## Usage
To run the application, use the following command:
```sh
sudo go run main.go
```
Replace ``, ``, and `` with the appropriate values.
Example:
```sh
sudo go run main.go 127.0.0.1 8080 "Hello, World"
```
## Features
- UDP packet crafting with customizable payload.
- IP and UDP checksum calculation.
- IP header inclusion with the `IP_HDRINCL` option.
- Spoofed source IP address generation.
## How It Works
The application crafts a UDP packet with a manually constructed IP header, followed by a UDP header and a data payload. It sets the `IP_HDRINCL` socket option to signal the kernel that the packet will include the IP header. The checksums for both IP and UDP headers are calculated to ensure the packet's integrity.
