  1. Denial of Service Explained
  2.  
  3. Ok so here's something that has been bugging me to get off my mind. DoSing And DDoSing. Kids like to go around and DoS and DDoS by flooding connections. Now what most DDOSers and Dosers do not know is, there are multiple TYPES of Denial of Service. Buffer Overflow is when a program writes data to a buffer, and then over runs the buffer's boundaries.
  4. This following code will cause a buffer overflow
  5. THIS WAS NOT MADE BY ME
  6. void overflow (char *str) {
  7. char buffer[10];
  8. strcpy(buffer, str); // Dangerous!
  9. }
  10.  
  11. int main () {
  12. char *str = "This is a string that is larger than the buffer of 10";
  13. overflow(str);
  14. }
  15. Anyways the Term DDOSING and DoSing changed from when a source is being used up, causing the service to be denied, to, when a kid hits you offline.
  16. What we need to understand is how there are more to things than we think. Oh yeah and if you call yourself a Master DDoser, don't say that unless you have done atleast THREE DIFFERENT TYPES OF DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACKS (Ddosing and Dosing to take down a connection counts as one)
  17. Anyways try to learn from this so we can make this community less skiddy.
