TCP

HEADER

FRAG
tcp-header-frag
In this attack, a TCP header is split into multiple frames in an attempt to bypass
firewalls or intrusion detection systems. This could lead to secure information also
being passed through the filter. To retain security, this command is included in the
DoS prevention list.

The server builds in its system memory a data structure describing all pending
connections. This data structure is of finite size, and it can be made to overflow by
intentionally creating too many partially-open connections. Systems providing
TCP-based services to the Internet community may be unable to provide services
while under this attack and for some time after this attack ceases. To protect the
system from this attack, this command is also included in the default attack
prevention list.

A UDP Flood Attack is possible when an attacker sends a UDP packet to a
random port on the victim system. When the victim system receives a UDP
packet, it will determine what application is waiting on the destination port. When it
realizes that there is no application that is waiting on the port, it will generate an
ICMP packet of destination unreachable to the forged source address. If enough
UDP packets are delivered to ports on victim, the system will go down.

An UDP packet travels between two "echoing" ports. Such packets can bounce
infinite number of times, using up network bandwidth and CPU. An intruder can
cause problems by spoofing a packet from one machine and send it to another.
The malicious intruder could generate lots of these packets in order to totally
overwhelm the systems and network. This keyword is included with appropriate
parameters in the default list.
