tcp

I have two hosts A and B and a host(called client here) C C will establish a tcp connection with A, and send http requests to A then A will relay the HTTP requests to B (the relaying may be seconds of delay) and B will spoof its IP address as the IP of A and send http response to C

I know there is sequnce number inconsistency problem, but is it possible to trick the TCP protocol to make the connection viable? thanks!

I'm suspecting an attack, but not sure. Intermittently, the web server will stop responding. When this happens… >>> More

Here comes my script (launched manually for tests) : #… >>> More
