Jack C. Louis and Robert E. Lee to talk about New DoS Attack Vectors

2008-08-27 09:57 | Category: News, Talks | Tags:

As you might have noticed the schedule for T2´08 was already published a while ago. However, we’ve received such an unusual submission that we have decided to include it to the schedule. Effectively this means that we have replaced the second part of “Iceberg Incorporated - A Peek Under the Surface of the Criminal Enterprise” with this new talk. And now about this new talk …

Jack C. Louis and Robert E. Lee from Outpost24 will divulge new technical details about TCP state table manipulation vulnerabilities that affect availability.

Specifically this talk will showcase new attacks that will render a remote system unavailable using a very low bandwidth attack stream. Attacks against Windows, BSD, Linux, and embedded systems TCP/IP stack implementations will be discussed and demonstrated.

Please see the schedule for details.
