This is a tip-page for TCP/IP Attack Lab of seed-lab project.

1 - About gcc

gcc is not installed on seed’s docker container. So when you need to compile the C program on heterogeneous platforms (like MacOSX, Arch etc.), you may encounter the glibc version-mismatch problem.

To cope with such situation, you can install the gcc yourself:

  1. Add local sources on apt.
nano /etc/apt/sources.list

Recommended sources:

deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic main restricted universe multiverse
# deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-security main restricted universe multiverse
# deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-security main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-updates main restricted universe multiverse
# deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-updates main restricted universe multiverse
deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-backports main restricted universe multiverse
# deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-backports main restricted universe multivers
deb http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
# deb-src http://mirrors.aliyun.com/ubuntu/ bionic-proposed main restricted universe multiverse
  1. Update the apt source and install gcc.
apt update
apt install gcc
  1. You are able to compile the C program on containers.

2 - About SYN Flood Attack (C Version)

In this part, my computer crashed when lauching such attack to the victim with countermesuare (SYN Cookie) using C script. The reason is that the packet sending failure causes the dead loop to be too fast.

You can add a sleep statement to solve it:

/*********************************************************
  Step 3: Finally, send the spoofed packet
********************************************************/
send_raw_ip_packet(ip);
usleep(200);

Note that usleep is for Linux/Unix Kernels’ POSIX.
