Hacknot - To Those About to Hack

TCP SYN Flooding and IP Spoofing Attacks

  • Systems providing TCP-based services to the Internet community may
    be unable to provide those services while under attack and for some

    addresses in the SYN packets are often implausible. When the packet
    arrives at the victim server system, there is no way to determine its

    address, the only way to validate the source of a packet is to use input
    source filtering (see Appendix A).
