Web Censorship Systems Can Facilitate Massive DDoS Attacks

Researchers are warning internet censorship systems are ripe for abuse by a new type of distributed denial of service DDoS attack. The potential for abuse is concerning, researchers say, because attacks would take advantage of a type of reflection and amplification, which would be “extremely...

Cloudflare mitigated one of the largest DDoS attack involving 17.2 million rps

Web infrastructure and website security company Cloudflare on Thursday disclosed that it mitigated the largest ever volumetric distributed denial of service DDoS attack recorded to date. The attack, launched via a Mirai botnet, is said to have targeted an unnamed customer in the financial industr...

Attackers Can Weaponize Firewalls and Middleboxes for Amplified DDoS Attacks

Weaknesses in the implementation of TCP protocol in middleboxes and censorship infrastructure could be weaponized as a vector to stage reflected denial of service DoS amplification attacks against any target, surpassing many of the existing UDP-based amplification factors to date. Detailed by a...
