FAQs



Yes, I do use “curve”. Your grade depends upon the
performance of the rest of the class.
All exams are closed-book and extremely time limited.
Exams consist of numerical and may be multiple-choice
(truefalse) questions.

Passive Versus Active Attacks
Bob
Alice

Alice and Bob want to communicate in
presence of adversaries

Adversaries:


Passive – just looking
Active – may change msgs

TCP segment format
20 to 60 Byte header
25
Connection establishment using three-way
handshaking



A SYN segment
cannot carry data,
but it consumes one
sequence number.
A SYN + ACK
segment cannot
carry data, but does
consume one
sequence number.
An ACK segment, if
carrying no data,
consumes no
sequence number.
26
Connection termination using three-way
handshaking


The FIN segment
consumes one
sequence
number if it does
not carry data.
The FIN + ACK
segment
consumes
one sequence
number if it
does not carry
data.
27
IP address Spoofing

Send requests to server with someone X's IP
address. The response is received at X and
discarded. Both X and server can be kept
busy ⇒ DoS attack
28
TCP Flags

Invalid combinations

May cause recipient to crash or hang
29
Syn Flood




A sends Syn request with IP address of X to Server
V.
V sends a syn+ack to X
X discards syn+ack leaving an half open connection
at V.
Many open connections exhausts resources at V ⇒
DoS
30
Ping of Death


Send a ping with more than 64kB in the data
field.
Most systems would crash, hang or reboot.
31
Smurf


Send a broadcast echo request with the V's
source address.
All the echo replies will make V very busy.
32
Fin




In the middle of conversation between X and
V.
H sends a packet with Fin flag to V.
V closes the connection and disregards all
further packets from X.
RST flag can be used similarly
33
Connection Hijacking



H sends packets to server X which increments
the sequence number at X.
All further packets from V are discarded at X.
Responses for packets from H are sent to V confusing him.

Address Resolution Protocol

ARP: Address Resolution Protocol

36
ARP Spoofing




X tries to find the MAC address of Victim V
Hacker H responds to ARP request
pretending to be V.
All communication for V is captured by H.
Countermeasure: Use static ARP
37
DNS Spoofing


DNS server is compromised to provide H's IP
address for V's name.
Countermeasure
38
Email Spoofing



From address is spoofed.
Malware attachment comes from a friendly
address.
From: [email protected]
39
Web Spoofing




The web site looks like another
Southwest Airline,
http://airlines.ws/southwest-airline.htm
For every .gov site there is a .com, .net giving
similar information
For misspellings of popular businesses, there
are web sites.

Summary
1. TCP port numbers, Sequence numbers, ack, flags
2. IP addresses are easy to spoof. ARP and DNS are
not secure.
3. Flags: Syn Flood, Ping of Death, Smurf, Fin,
Connection Hijacking
4. UDP Flood Attack
5. Application addresses are not secure

Learn about IPconfig, ping, arp, nslookup, whois, tracert, netstat, route, hosts
file
1. Find the IP addresses of www.google.com
2. Modify the hosts file to map www.google.com to 128.252.166.33 and do a
google search. Remove the modification to the host file and repeat.
3. Find the domain name of 128.272.165.7 (reverse the address and add
.inaddr. arpa)
4. Find the owner of www.google.com domain
5. Find route from your computer to www.google.com
6. Find the MAC address of your computer
7. Print your ARP cache table. Find a server on your local network. Change its
ARP entry in your computer to point to your computer’s MAC address. Print new
ARP cache table. Now use the service and see what happens.
8. Print your routing table and explain each line (up to line #20 if too many)
9. What is the number of packets sent with “destination unreachable”
10. Find the location of 128.252.166.33 (use www.ipaddresslocation.org)
