Analysis of the "mstream" distributed denial of service attack tool, based on the source code of "stream2.c", a classic point-to-point DoS attack tool. mstream is more primitive than any of the other DDoS tools.
82dd67ecacb8ff5731279209d4b70342Mstream, the newest of DDoS tools to be circulated, has been analyzed and has been found to be more primitive than any of the other DDoS tools available. Examination of reverse engineered and recovered C source code reveals the program to be in early development stages, with numerous bugs and an incomplete feature set compared with any of the other listed tools. The effectiveness of the stream/stream2 attack itself, however, means that it will still be disruptive to the victim (and agent) networks even with an attack network consisting of only a handfull of agents.
d99d36bb136ad1b329fab03870d478dfAn analysis of the "Shaft" distributed denial of service tool. Shaftnode was recovered initially in November, 1999. Distinctive features are the ability to switch handler servers and handler ports on the fly, making detection by intrusion detection tools difficult from that perspective, a "ticket" mechanism to link transactions, and the particular interest in packet statistics, showing the "yield" of the DDoS network as a whole.
e3af444432b23dbc909e55320c0991b2"gag" is a program to remotely scan for "stacheldraht" agents, which are part of an active "stacheldraht" network. It will not detect trinoo, the original Tribe Flood Network (TFN), or TFN2K agents. Tested on linux/solaris/AIX/BSD.
735e6aeaeb3262d11a092a649b0b7813The following is an analysis of "stacheldraht", a distributed denial of service attack tool, based on source code from the "Tribe Flood Network" distributed denial of service attack tool. Stacheldraht (German for "barbed wire") combines features of the "trinoo" distributed denial of service tool, with those of the original TFN, and adds encryption of communication between the attacker and stacheldraht masters and automated update of the agents.
40a973414685d1eee7d607575441ca3aResults of the Distributed-Systems Intruder Tools Workshop (Nov 2-4, 1999). Several distributed intruder tools are in widespread use now, and the technology is maturing. As a result, a single command from an attacker can result in tens of thousands of concurrent attacks.
b69cb60c78ff79ee69d4513e534245f9The following is an analysis of the "Tribe Flood Network", or "TFN", by Mixter. TFN is ai powerful distributed attack tool and backdoor currently being developed and tested on a large number of compromised Unix systems on the Internet. TFN source available here.
5e83210b7399408c0735c3ea14cdfe35The following is an analysis of the DoS Project's "trinoo" (a.k.a. "trin00") master/slave programs, which implement a distributed network denial of service tool. Trinoo daemons were originally found in binary form on a number of Solaris 2.x systems, and probably being set up on hundreds, perhaps thousands, of systems on the Internet that are being compromised by remote buffer overrun exploitation.
