Are there any legitimate circumstances under which TCP SYN+ACK packets would arrive at a Linux firewall’s INPUT chain, if it did not leave via the OUTPUT chain?
That is, am I correct in assuming that NATed or FORWARDed (routed) traffic c… Continue reading TCP SYN/ACK on INPUT vs FORWARD

The program never read()s from the socket; it just parses the /proc filesystem and write()s the output to the soc… Continue reading Is an open TCP port that doesn’t take input secure?
In my search for a comprehensive list of implemented RFC’s as pertaining to TCP/UDP traffic, I’ve come across RFC 7414 – but it only provides links and only for TCP. Is there any project that either meta-analyzed these, or that has been ma… Continue reading Is there a way to filter RFCs for what would constitute minimum allowed TCP/UDP traffic for functioning of web applications?

I’m trying to set up port knocking using iptables on a Debian server hosted by VirtualBox on my Ubuntu machine. For some reason, when I knock on a port on the server from the host machine, this knock is automatically repeated several times… Continue reading Why does my simple TCP connect cause a cascade of repeated connection attempts on my vitual server?
