Hi Yacan, Ah, I’m assuming subsequent packets are dropped with paws errors? Question then is, if an attacker manages to pass all segment validation checks, including tstamp, should we ignore tsval if the ack is not valid, although tsval is only used to validate segments (not acks)? As far as I can remember, RFC7323[1] recommends accepting the tsval update, although I haven’t re-read this carefully recently.
Independent of this, really glad to hear you’re doing this type of testing! Let me know if you hit any other issues as I’ve only done Codenomicon testing.
