cfhttr: Workaround Cloudflare Anti-DDoS Protection
In hrbrmstr/cfhttr: Workaround Cloudflare Anti-DDoS Protection
Description
Some sites use Cloudflare's anti-DDoS protection to, well, avoid being DDoS'd.
Details
However, many of these sites also host files that they intended for automated download
workflows and often forget to exclude those from the heavy-handed anti-DDoS, javascript
+ human-required settings.
Cloudflare employs a few different anti-DDoS protection schemes. One involves a 503
HTTP response followed by the submission of a "challenge" that was solved via a bit of
javascript on the page. _That's what this pacakge handles._ If you encounter other
Cloudflare anti-DDoS protection schemes (especially the captcha one), then this won't
work.
