Hi...

this looks like the old, "traditional" UDP echo flood. Someone
must be really bored. Note that all packets have source port 7.
Most of the hosts in your log still run the echo service on that
port. Anything that's sent to port 7/echo is sent back to the
(supposed) originator. UDP/echo can easily be spoofed. Similar to
the udp option in "papasmurf", the attacker sends a packet with:
src: yourip dst: echoserver port 7, and the echoserver replies to
you. Of course you have to scan for systems with echo ports open
before you can launch this attack. It's a variant of udp-based
smurf, but in udp smurf (using random ports) the host just sends
back the icmp/3 message for "connection refused on this port",
while in a spoofed echo flood the attacker can chose the size of
the data packet.

Hi,
Last night, i have been under a UDP Flood attack during 1 hour.
I couldn't access the internet when i was under attack.
My little firewall ( conseal on win98 ) has generate 6Mo of  log file.
There where at least 30 different IP source. ( perhaps spoofed packet )

First i thought about a broadcast attack, but the attack is with UDP proto,
so perhaps a DDOS...
Can someone tell me more about DDOS or tools that can make such an  UDP
flood?

Here is a sample of the attack :
