Denial of Service Attacks are everywhere. If you really think about it,
almost every single internet service has a denial of service attack to
exploit. Auditing and least-priv'ed mechinisms seem to be the only
defence.
I just wanted to post this because it is something that is keeping me up
at night these days. I made the mistake of taking a piece of paper and
listing all of the denial of service attacks that one could perform on
internet services that we need day in and day out......yikes. Don't do
this unless you are on a very long drive and need to stay awake. :-)
off to see my shrink,
