Actual exam question for Cisco's 200-201 exam
Question #: 92
Topic #: 3
[All 200-201 Questions]

A user reports difficulties accessing certain external web pages. When an engineer examines traffic to and from the external domain in full packet captures, they notice that many SYNs have the same sequence number, source, and destination IP address, but they have different payloads. What is causing this situation?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

TCP injection is an attack where the attacker sends crafted packets into an existing TCP session. These packets appear to be part of the session.

The presence of many SYN packets with the same sequence number, source, and destination IP but different payloads indicates that an attacker might be injecting packets into the session.

This method can be used to disrupt communication, inject malicious commands, or manipulate the data being transmitted.

I think it's due to insufficient network resources.

I believe it could be a misconfiguration of a web filter.

I agree with Isidra, it does sound like TCP injection.

Insufficient network resources? Nah, this has got to be a case of too much network activity if you ask me. Looks like the old 'traffic jam' scenario to me.

Hmm, I'd say it's a failure of the full packet capture solution. Those tools can be finicky, and it seems like it's missing something important here. Better double-check the setup.

I'm going with B, misconfiguration of a web filter. Sounds like the web filter is letting through some shady stuff. Time to call the IT team and get that sorted out.

Definitely TCP injection. Those varying payloads are a dead giveaway for that kind of attack. Gotta watch out for those crafty hackers!

We need to be vigilant and make sure our network security measures are up to date.

Yes, you're right. TCP injection can definitely cause those varying payloads.
