TearDrop Attacke - was ist das?
 

Im Log meines Dlink Routers 614+ habe ich unlängst einen Haufen "Teardropattacks" protokolliert gehabt!

Kann mir jemand erklären, was das eigentlich genau ist?

Teardrop Attack
This type of denial of service attack exploits the way that the Internet Protocol (IP) requires a packet that is too large for the next router to handle be divided into fragments. The fragment packet identifies an offset to the beginning of the first packet that enables the entire packet to be reassembled by the receiving system. In the teardrop attack, the attacker's IP puts a confusing offset value in the second or later fragment. If the receiving operating system does not have a plan for this situation, it can cause the system to crash.
