UDP flooding?
Anyone else noticing a massive increase in UDP traffic on their webservers just now? Mine's getting bombarded like I've never seen before... :s

Yeah, there was a SYN/UDP flood that hit the East Coast infrastructure and took down Cloudflare.

RE: UDP flooding?
Using iptraf it's normal to see my webserver get hit by random port sniffers about once every five seconds, but what I saw a month ago it was crazy, thankfully whoever's botnet was doing it must have been taken down. I looked but I didn't see any news about it at any of the usual outlets...
