TCP: S2C Duplicate Sequence Number Segment Retransmission

This protocol anomaly triggers when it detects a TCP segment retransmission from the server to client in which the retransmitted data has the same sequence number but differs from the original data. This is a common IDS evasion attack; do not allow these packets to pass IDP.
