Question

In the Wireshark Capture.

In frame 126, follow the TCP stream. What is the request that is made to the server?

What response does the server give back?

Based on these messages and others you can see in the packet capture, what would you say is going on? Is this an attack? If so, what type of attack might it be?

Explanation / Answer

1. Handshake request sent to the server, getting response for the same.
2. Server responded as it's a bad request as there is no http acknowledgement available.
3. No it's not an attack. Client is trying to make a http connection with server, but server responded it as bad request as there is no http running on port 80.
