Subject: -p udp and --ctstate NEW
Date: Tue, 16 Nov 2010 18:15:17 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101117001517.GV23013@cardinal> (raw)

I'm experimenting with -m recent to stem SIP attacks. As part of the 
experiment I have a --ctstate NEW -p udp --dport 5060 -j LOG rule to 
log new SIP "connections".

I'm currently under attack from 61.135.88.173 in China, and the 
strange thing was that all those LOG lines were identical except for 
slight fluxuations in length. All same source port, 5164. (The length 
fluxuations make sense, I saw part of the attack as it began, and it 
was running through a dictionary of names.)

What I'm curious about is how those were all --ctstate NEW, why not 
ESTABLISHED? I thought the same source.IP:sport -> dest.IP:dport 
would be seen as ESTABLISHED.

Asterisk console snippet of the attack before blocking:
