--/ 1 / For the Black Hats /----------------------------------------------

The attached demonstration dribbles two fragmented IP packets to an IP
address which is profiled by NetProwler IDS version 3.0.  The result is
that NetProwler chokes, dropping into a lovely Dr. Watson error message.
Note that this was tested with an older version (3.0), since Axent hasn't
sent me an evaluation key (I requested it over 11 days ago) for the latest
version downloadable from the web.  Also note that NetProwler needs to be
profiling the FTP service on the victim for this to be effective.

This was found using Dug Song/Anzen's awesome Fragrouter program.

Also, NetProwler stores incoming alert information in a Jet .mdb.  I
suggest you take a look at RFP2K04, and consider the implications. ;)

--/ 2 / For the White Hats /----------------------------------------------

As I mentioned above, this is for version 3.0.  Axent was contacted on
Monday, but they never responded.  So after a small 'industry-standard'
wait, I have chosen to release this.

        Kills NetProwler IDS version 3.0
        
        You need libnet installed.  It's available from
        www.packetfactory.net.  Acks to route.

        Only tested on RH 6.x Linux.  To compile:
        gcc RFProwl.c -lnet -o RFProwl                  

        Plus, make sure your architecture is defined below:   */

#define LIBNET_LIL_ENDIAN 1
#undef  LIBNET_BIG_ENDIAN 1

#include <libnet.h>

/* it's just much easier to code in the packet frags we want. :) */
