The TCP SYN Flood attack is not a new phenomenon. Its origins can be traced back to the dawn of the internet when network security was in its infancy. As the internet grew in popularity and commercial significance, malicious actors became more motivated to exploit potential vulnerabilities. Early...
Advanced Techniques and Variations While the basic methodology of a TCP SYN Flood remains consistent, there are variations and advanced techniques: Reflection Attacks In a reflection attack, the attacker sends SYN requests to various servers with a spoofed IP address (the victim’s). These servers ...
To have a better understanding of the attack dynamics and lead to future mitigation techniques, modeling DoS/DDoS attacks for SDN is necessary. The main goal of modeling is to provide i) better understanding about the attack effect, and consequently ii) more effective mitigation techniques. ...
Analyzing the Exploitability of the Type Confusion Bug Since the debug setup with symbols is now ready, let’s take another look at the crash by setting breakpoints and stepping through the code. Thetcpcbstructure can be inspected during the call totcp_timer_activefunction, wh...
Note:Configuring VTY access-class filters is not an effective mitigation strategy for this vulnerability. Infrastructure ACLs (iACL) Although it is often difficult to block traffic transiting your network, it is possible to identify traffic which should never be allowed to target your infrastructure ...
Port scan techniques are different for TCP and UDP ports, which is why we have dedicated tools for each one. What are the most common ports? What does a port scanner do? What is the best port scanner online? How long does a port scan take? What are some of the impacts of running...
Abstract This document discusses both use cases and operational experience with Multipath TCP (MPTCP) in real networks. It lists several prominent use cases where Multipath TCP has been considered and is being used. It also gives insight to some heuristics and decisions ...

Besides all of these observations, our main focus in this work is on techniques like (i) bandits [18], which can help to explore and exploit in the queuing context and (ii) federated learning [19], which provides a collaborative network interface to give congestion information to the TCP ...
