Summary:
This event is generated when an external user pings an internal server using an echo request ICMP type. This may indicate an attempt to scan the network or cause a denial of service using a "ping flood." 

--
Impact:
Possible information gathering or denial of service attempt. 

--
Detailed Information:
An ICMP ping may indicate a scanning attempt, a ping flood, or a remote user attempting to see if the network responds.

--
Affected Systems:
Any system that responds to a ping request.

--
Attack Scenarios:
An attacker can use a scanner that pings a system to find out more information about the network, or the attacker can use a tool to send a large number of pings in an attempt to "flood" the network and create a denial of service condition.

--
Ease of Attack:
Simple. Scanning and ping-based DoS tools are freely available.

--
False Positives:
This rule will generate an alert if a legitimate remote user pings an internal server.

--
False Negatives:
None known.

--
Corrective Action:
Use a packet filtering firewall to block ICMP ping packets with an ICMP type value of 8.
