Hi Community,

im a student, and at the moment im searching
for some input to write my exam.

The title is "Packet/Protocol Anomaly Detection with IDS", i already got some 
good input.
But some things are quiet hard to find.

What i need is some examples on attacks, 
on specific protocols, like ftp, http, tcp ...
I know there are attacks like Dos or Buffer Overflows.
But i need some more.

Maybe you can tell me some good ressources or
examples.

Thanks all, and sorry for my english.

Hello Harry,

one thing I recently discovered was HTTP response splitting (known for
some time, but hey - I can't know everything). Quite interesting.

Some FTP implementations (wuftpd) react(ed) badly to LIST commands with
lots of wildcards, which allows an easy DoS.

Brute-forcing might be interesting too.

There are many others, but I'm just a student myself... ;-)
