- Description:
tcp-tickle reads the list of newline-separated pairs of TCP-connections in the form <local_ip:port remote_ip:port> from the standard input. For each TCP connection a so-called "TCP tickle" packet is forged. The packet contains the provided local and remote addresses as source and destination IP addresses respectively. It also contains invalid values set in the TCP acknowledge and sequence protocol fields. Then, the packet is sent into the network. If the remote host receives the packet, it responds to it with a TCP ACK packet that contains valid values for the TCP acknowledge and sequence fields. Since the local machine does not know anything about the corresponding TCP connection, the kernel responds with a TCP RST packet, and the TCP connection on the remote machine is terminated.
