This topic describes how to configure detection of a tcp-no-flag attack.
A TCP segment with no control flags set is an anomalous event
causing various responses from the recipient. When the TCP no-flag
is enabled, the device detects the TCP segment headers with no flags
set, and drops all TCP packets with missing or malformed flag fields.
To enable detection of a tcp-no-flag option:
- Configure interfaces and assign an IP address to the interfaces.
[edit]
user@host# set interfaces ge-0/0/1 unit 0 family inet address 192.0.2.0/24
user@host# set interfaces ge-0/0/3 unit 0 family inet address 198.51.100.0/24
- Configure security zones trustZone and untrustZone and assign interfaces
to them.
[edit]
user@host# set security zones security-zone trustZone host-inbound-traffic system-services all
user@host# set security zones security-zone trustZone host-inbound-traffic protocols all
user@host# set security zones security-zone trustZone interfaces ge-0/0/1.0
user@host# set security zones security-zone untrustZone host-inbound-traffic system-services all
user@host# set security zones security-zone untrustZone host-inbound-traffic protocols all
user@host# set security zones security-zone untrustZone interfaces ge-0/0/3.0
- Configure security policies from untrustZone to trustZone.
[edit]
user@host# set security policies from-zone untrustZone to-zone trustZone policy policy1 match source-address any
user@host# set security policies from-zone untrustZone to-zone trustZone policy policy1 match destination-address any
user@host# set security policies from-zone untrustZone to-zone trustZone policy policy1 match application any
user@host# set security policies from-zone untrustZone to-zone trustZone policy policy1 then permit
user@host# set security policies default-policy deny-all
- Configure security screens and attach them to untrustZone.
[edit]
user@host# set security screen ids-option untrustScreen tcp tcp-no-flag
user@host# set security zones security-zone untrustZone screen untrustScreen
user@host# set security screen ids-option untrustScreen alarm-without-drop
- Configure syslog.
[edit]
user@host# set system syslog file syslog any any
user@host# set system syslog file syslog archive size 10000000
user@host# set system syslog file syslog explicit-priority
user@host# set system syslog file syslog structured-data
user@host# set security policies from-zone untrustZone to-zone trustZone policy policy1 then log session-init
user@host# set security policies from-zone untrustZone to-zone trustZone policy policy1 then log session-close
- Commit the configuration.
