Questions and Answers

Which tool can be used to perform session splicing attacks?

  • tcpsplice (correct)
  • Whisker
  • Burp
  • Hydra

What is the idea behind session splicing?

  • To flood the network with excessive data packets
  • To encrypt communication to bypass IDS detection
  • To split data between several packets to avoid matching IDS signatures (correct)
  • To create fake sessions to confuse IDS

Why do many IDS stop reassembling and handling a stream after a certain period?

  • To prevent attacks through session splicing
  • Due to limitations in packet processing speed
  • Because of the time spent by the IDS on reassembling (correct)
  • To conserve system resources

Study Notes

Session Splicing Attacks

  • A session splicing attack is a type of evasion technique used to bypass IDS (Intrusion Detection System) by splitting a malicious packet into multiple碎 packets, making it difficult for IDS to detect.

Tools for Session Splicing

  • Tcpclip is a tool that can be used to perform session splicing attacks.

Goals of Session Splicing

  • The idea behind session splicing is to evade detection by IDS by splitting a malicious packet into multiple fragments, which are then reassembled at the target system.

IDS Limitations

  • Many IDS stop reassembling and handling a stream after a certain period, usually due to performance or resource constraints.

Evasion Techniques

  • After a successful splicing attack, the IDS will not log the attack, as it is unable to reassemble the fragmented packets and detect the malicious activity.
