Exploits Circulating for Remote Code Execution Flaws in NTP Protocol

Researchers at Google have uncovered several serious vulnerabilities in the Network Time Protocol and experts warn that there are exploits publicly available for some of the bugs. The vulnerabilities are present in all versions of NTP prior to 4.2.8 and include several buffer overflows that are...

Some Recursive DNS Implementations Patch DoS Vulnerability

UPDATE: Some domain name system DNS server implementations are at risk for denial-of-service attacks after a vulnerability was disclosed and patched in a few popular server packages, including BIND, OpenDNS, PowerDNS and NLnetLabs. According to an advisory from DHS and the CERT Coordination Cente...

Reflection DDoS Attacks Using Millions of UPnP Devices on the Rise

After successful in launching reflection and amplification Distributed Denial-of-Service DDoS attacks by abusing various protocols such as DNS, NTP and SMTP, hackers are now abusing Simple Service Discovery Protocol SSDP – part of the UPnP protocol standard – to target home and office devices,...

Arbor: DDoS Attacks Getting Bigger as Reflection Increases

Reflected distributed denial of service DDoS attacks continue to increase, particularly among large scale DDoS events, but it’s a relatively new type of amplification attack which exploits the Simple Service Directory Protocol SSDP that has emerged in a new Arbor Networks report. Data from the...

High-Volume, High-Rate DDoS Attacks Persist

As expected, the numbers back up the continued proliferation of both high-volume and high-rate distributed denial of service attacks – like the ones executed via NTP amplification – over the last few months. NSFOCUS, a security firm that measures DDoS traffic, released its Mid-Year Threat Report...

Google Public DNS Server Spoofed for SNMP based DDoS Attack

The Distributed Denial of Service DDoS attack is becoming more sophisticated and complex, and, according to security experts, the next DDoS vector to be concerned about is SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol amplification attacks. Yesterday afternoon, the SANS Internet Storm Center reported...

SNMP DDoS Attack Spoofs Google DNS Server

Update: The SANS Internet Storm Center this afternoon reported SNMP scans spoofed from Google’s public recursive DNS server seeking to overwhelm vulnerable routers and other devices that support the protocol with DDoS traffic. “The traffic is spoofed, and claims to come from Google’s DNS server...
