HTTP Rate Limit Bypass
Last modified: 2023-03-07
The 429 “Too Many Requests” response in HTTP header occurs when the client has sent too many requests in a given amount of time (rate limiting). That is because the server limits the number of requests. However, we may be able to bypass this restriction.
Bypass
We may be able to bypass the rate limiting by adding one of the following headers and change the IP per request.
Sometimes, we need to add multiple headers.
X-Forwarded: <IP>
X-Forwarded-For: <IP>
X-Forwarded-Host: <IP>
X-Client-IP: <IP>
X-Remote-IP: <IP>
X-Remote-Addr: <IP>
X-Host: <IP>
X-Originating-IP: <IP>
