Land Attack Definition: A land attack is a type of network-based Denial of Service (DoS) attack where the attacker sends packets with a forged source IP address to a target machine causing it to reply to itself, ultimately overloading the system.
A land attack is a type of cyberattack that exploits a vulnerability in the TCP/IP protocol stack by sending a spoofed packet with the source IP address set to be the same as the destination IP address. This causes the targeted system to become overwhelmed with a flood of identical packets, leading to a denial of service in which the system becomes inaccessible to legitimate users.
