EtherOops - Exploring Practical Methods to Exploit Ethernet Packet-in-Packet Attacks

Explore practical methods for exploiting Ethernet packet-in-packet attacks in this 43-minute Black Hat conference talk. Delve into the concept of physical layer conditions causing packet re-evaluation in transit, previously considered only theoretical for Ethernet. Discover various techniques to make this attack both practical and powerful, including bypassing Firewall and NAT solutions even when targeting networks directly from the Internet. Learn how combining this attack with fringe IPv6 implementation cases in Windows and Linux can enable attackers to establish man-in-the-middle positions, potentially eavesdropping on corporate communications or launching additional attacks. Gain insights from security researchers Ben Seri and Gregory Vishnepolsky as they present their findings on this critical vulnerability in Ethernet networks.
