handshake
To the best of our knowledge, this attack is a new finding. Asking around, people assume the TCP handshake verifies the IP addresses on both sides. This attack shows that this is not actually true.
In a collaborative project for the Fontys University of Applied Sciences, Raoul Houkes and I researched different ways to attack TCP, either at implementation or protocol level. What we found was a protocol-level attack, affecting all correct implementations.
