NTP MON_GETLIST Query Amplification DDoS

NTP MON_GETLIST Query Amplification DDoS
Posted Jul 9, 2015
Authored by Todor Donev

A Network Time Protocol (NTP) Amplification attack is an emerging form of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) that relies on the use of publicly accessible NTP servers to overwhelm a victim system with UDP traffic. The NTP service supports a monitoring service that allows administrators to query the server for traffic counts of connected clients. This information is provided via the "monlist" command. The basic attack technique consists of an attacker sending a "get monlist" request to a vulnerable NTP server, with the source address spoofed to be the victim's address. This tool is a proof of concept that demonstrates this attack.
