Title: DDOS on SAMP - 21.03.2012
Post by: S1mon on March 21, 2012, 08:29:36 pm
Any admin+ is asked to join as soon as possible, we have a strong DDOS attack - someone spams completely the chat with logging in and out on a high speed. There's no admins online now

WE got Murt online, anyway the problem stills on. I can send my chat log to admins+ for tracking all names of the DDOSer

We have Rydell, Murt and Shejken online, but spam keeps getting on. Most login attempts are from Slovenia, Germany, reserved and Israel.

For future, refrain flaming/shitting at main chat during the spam. You will just end up tempbanned..

Secondly, do not moan "why we aren't banning them" - Simply, we cant ban players who havent logged in

thank you

lol u mad?


This is DDoS, firstly learn what DDoS is, then class attacks, saying on every server attack that is DDoS is just shit.

DDoS attack - YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IbiKXnA64Wk#)

The spam attacks have actually managed to crash the server once.

To an extent you could call this a DDoS attack

However, DDoS attacks usually consist of larger packets being sent in a much greater quantity to the server itself instead of the SA:MP server

This way gets the player noticed, as well as annoy everyone playing

Any idiot who uses the tool will be banned so if they think they won't they can think again.

Plus the name joining flood is old nothing new we've seen it before so don't bother showing us that you can do it again ;)

You are also forgetting the first D, "Distributed" Denial of Service, meaning more than one computer is involved or a bot-net. Typically, a computer performing a full DoS attack would not be able to sustain connecting to the server as well due to the fact of the large amount of traffic and stress already on the network card/network. I think Conroy said it well, just some kid stuck at home who can't get enjoyment out of his life any other way than to annoy the others. Even if the person did this for 3 hours straight, he could crash the SAMP scripts before it affected the server a simple restart would fix the SA:MP script, whilst a DDoS can render a server useless for hours, days or even indefinitely damage server/network hardware depending on the exent of the attack and stability of the network. So, in short I hope you now see the differences between an annoying kid in is house, and a kid with a series of computers or bot-net to attack a server.

When the attack was going on I was thinking if it was possible to set max connections per IP and decided to search a bit and found this:
http://forum.sa-mp.com/archive/index.php/t-86269.html (http://forum.sa-mp.com/archive/index.php/t-86269.html)
It was scripted by 'Lavamike' not sure if the one from Argonath :razz:
Anyway, can't this or similar script used to block such attack?

I haven't seen the name Lavamike in years. Plus, the script is most likely outdated from what these guys can do nowadays (back then, these floods are unheard of).

It doesn't has to be that specific script, it was mainly an idea.
It could be re-scripted or updated with the same ideology and I don't think that the filterscript has been removed..
Maybe it works..

I checked the filterscript and found what I also found at that time.
The bots do actually nothing else as connect and time out. They do not send a lot of packets other than the connection. This means that the difference between a time-out and a kick-out is only important at times the server is full or nearly full, at which times the number of bots connecting is limited anyway.

It might help a little bit, but notifying me to routeblock the IP of the attacker usually works better.

If the attack is done by one individual, can't his ISP be contact?

Gandalf I think you should routeblock the IP of the attacker....  :rules:

Don't worry that gets done pretty much every time it happens. Provided no one or many are along that route.

He's probably behind a proxy by now, but I don't think he's been using it forever (not that he planned to be banned in order to attack the server later  :trust:).

Even tho I'm not sure ISP will do anything against some wannabe-hacker kid...

Not a hacker and wouldn't give the satisfaction to these people doing it. I say "these" as I believe it's actually been more than one person although may be not linked with each other.

Every time he uses a proxy, one less proxy to use by others.

As for provider, most kids do not know that the police takes 'interruption of an online service' pretty serious, if they get enough reports.
