1. All you ever wanted to know about DDoS Marek Majkowski marek@cloudflare.com @majek04
2. Content neutral 2
3. DoS attempts daily 3 DoS events per day
4. Defending from DoS is hard 4 X Attacker Visitor example.com
5. Where the attacks come from? ! • L3 - Spoofed IP packets • L7 - Real connections from botnets 5
6. • Internet economics • Deniability L3 - Spoofed IP packets 6 Tier 1 provider Attacking network Target network $ $
7. L7 - Botnet traffic • Unpatched virtual machines - VPS, EC2 • bugs in application software like wordpress • Infected end-user computers • windows XP? • Malicious javascript injected into browsers • javascript from advertisement networks 7 $ Easy! Easy!

16. High volume packet flood 16 Packets per second
17. UDP DNS flood 17 ! IP 202.194.181.95.15443 > 1.2.3.4:53: 63476% [1au] A? example.com. (50)! IP 221.12.236.115.6570 > 1.2.3.4:53: 11406% [1au] A? example.com. (50)!

18. Sad DNS server 18
19. 19 Spoofed? (source: DaPuglet)
20. 20 Drop!
21. 21 1 in 10K packets
22. Packet characteristics 22 ! • Packet length • Payload • Goal: limit false positives
23. Matching on payload in iptables 23
24. Payload matching with BPF 24 ! iptables -A INPUT \! --dst 1.2.3.4 \! -p udp --dport 53 \! -m bpf --bytecode "14,0 0 0 20,177 0 0 0,12 0 0 0,7 0 0 0,64 0 0 0,21 0 7 124090465,64 0 0 4,21 0 5 1836084325,64 0 0 8,21 0 3 56848237,80 0 0 12,21 0 1 0,6 0 0 1,6 0 0 0" \! -j DROP!
25. BPF bytecode 25 ! ldx 4*([14]&0xf)! ld #34! add x! tax! lb_0:! ldb [x + 0]! add x! add #1! tax! ld [x + 0]! jneq #0x07657861, lb_1! ld [x + 4]! jneq #0x6d706c65, lb_1! ld [x + 8]! jneq #0x03636f6d, lb_1! ldb [x + 12]! jneq #0x00, lb_1! ret #1! lb_1:! ret #0!
26. Tcpdump expressions • Originally: • xt_bpf implemented in 2013 by Willem de Bruijn ! • Tcpdump expressions are limited - no variables • Benefits in hand-crafting BPF 26 tcpdump -n “udp and port 53”
27. BPF tools 27 • Open source: • https://github.com/cloudflare/bpftools • Can match various DNS patterns: • *.example.com! • --case-insensitive *.example.com! • --invalid-dns
28. 28 ~2M pps
29. 29 Happy DNS server
30. 30 Internet Router NIC Kernel App Overloaded operating system
31. Interrupt storms 31
32. Payload matching close to NIC 32
33. Partial kernel bypass ! • Or EFVI for SolarFlares: • http://www.openonload.org/ • Open sourced netmap patch, tested on Intel: • https://github.com/luigirizzo/netmap/pull/87 33
34. Iptables BPF offload 34 Network card RX Queue #1 RX Queue #2 RX Queue #N RX Queue #? ! userspace offload Ethernet Kernel
35. 35 >3M pps It works really well
36. 36 It works really well
37. No characteristics: Attacks against TCP/IP network stack (L4) 37
38. ACK floods 38 ! IP 48.60.32.50.15244 > 1.2.3.4.80: Flags [.], ack 1754729313, win 16153! IP 31.102.214.103.13396 > 1.2.3.4.80: Flags [.], ack 1569851274, win 15707!

41. 41 ~2M pps
42. Effective against TCP attacks • Works well against: • ACK • FIN • RST • X-mas • What about SYN floods? 42
43. SYN floods 43 ! IP 94.242.250.109.47330 > 1.2.3.4:80: Flags [S], seq 1444613291, win 63243! IP 188.138.1.240.61454 > 1.2.3.4:80: Flags [S], seq 1995637287, win 60551!

45. SYN in Linux 45 SYN backlog SYN_RECV Listen backlog ESTABLISHED SYN ACK accept() App SYN+ACK
46. SYN Cookies 46 5 bits t mod 32 3 bits MSS 24 bits hash(ip, port, t) sequence number: 26 bits timestamp 1 bit ECN 1 bit SACK 4 bits wscale timestamp: ! sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies = 1! ! ! sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_timestamps = 1!
47. 47 ~0.3M pps
48. Recent changes • The idea is to remove the LISTEN lock • Heavy refactoring of the SYN queue • Submitted by Eric Dumazet in early October 2015 • Kernel 4.4 48
49. Connections from a botnet (L7) 49
50. 50 Real TCP/IP connections
51. Small volume 51 Packets per second
52. Symptoms 52 • Concurrent connection count going up • Many sockets in "orphaned" state • "Time waits" socket state indicates churn
53. 53 Internet Router NIC Kernel App Overloaded application
54. Sad HTTP server 54
55. 55 IP reputation (source: the internet)
56. Reputation in iptables 1. Conntrack Connlimit - limit concurrent connections 2. Hashlimits - limit rate of connections • Rate limit SYN packets per IP 3. Ipset - blacklisting of IP addresses • Manual blacklisting - feed IP blacklist from HTTP server logs • Supports subnets, timeouts • Automatic blacklisting hashlimits 56
57. Make it a SYN flood ! ! ! ! ! • Disable HTTP keep-alives • Make it a SYN flood 57 ! GET / HTTP/1.1! Host: www.example.com! ! GET / HTTP/1.1! Host: www.example.com! ! GET / HTTP/1.1! Host: www.example.com! ...!
58. Very large botnets (L7+) 58
59. Very large botnets • Blacklist IP's based on payload • "BPF" or "string" module for match + ipsets auto expiry 59 ! GET /forum.php HTTP/1.1! Accept: */*! Accept-Language: zh-cn! Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate! User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Baiduspider/2.0;... ! Host: www.example.com:80! Connection: Keep-Alive!
60. 300k RPS, 650k uniques 60 (source: CloudFlare blog)
61. 61 Congestion L2 Remove IP address BGP Nullrouting High volume packet flood L3 DROP bad packets Match on BPF High volume packet flood L4 DROP bad packets Conntrack Botnet L7 Limit damage for each bot Connlimit Hashlimit Ipsets Very large botnet L7+ DROP bad requests Match HTTP request in TCP packets
62. • You WILL BGP null-route • Prepare your application for that • DROP all the packets! (only 1 in 10k could be valid!) • With BPF • Partial kernel bypass for better speed • Iptables are powerful • Connlimit, hashlimits, ipsets marek@cloudflare.com @majek04 Thanks!
