Fortunately, you can use Gopherus[<https://github.com/tarunkant/Gopherus>] to create payloads for several services. Additionally, remote-method-guesser[<https://github.com/qtc-de/remote-method-guesser>] can be used to create gopher payloads for Java RMI services

# PDFs Rendering
If the web page is automatically creating a PDF with some information you have provided, you can insert some JS that will be executed by the PDF creator itself (the server) while creating the PDF and you will be able to abuse a SSRF. Find more information here. <https://book.hacktricks.xyz/pentesting-web/xss-cross-site-scripting/server-side-xss-dynamic-pdf>
# From SSRF to DoS
Create several sessions and try to download heavy files exploiting the SSRF from the sessions.
