SCAN: Cybercop UDP Bomb
This signature detects attempts to scan the system using CyberCop Scanner. Attackers can be attempting to determine if the system is vulnerable to a UDP bomb denial-of-service (DoS) attack (a UDP port is flooded with ECHO and CHARGEN packets by connecting a host ECHO service to a local or remote CHARGEN service).
Extended Description
