| Summary | This event is generated when the Cybercop vulnerability scanner is used against a host. |
| Impact | Cybercop can be used to identify vulnerabilities on host systems. |
| Detailed Information | This particular packet is a part of Cybercop's OS identification. Specially crafted packets are able to elicit different responses from different operating systems. This packet is likely to be part of a full Cybercop scan rather than an isolated event. |
| Affected Systems | All |
| Attack Scenarios | Cybercop can be used by attackers to determine vulnerabilities present on a host or network of hosts that could be used as attack vectors. |
| Ease of Attack | Simple |
| Corrective Action | TCP packets with SYN, FIN and PUSH set at the same time are abnormal, use a packet filtering firewall to block them. |
