message) will contain SYN flag, and the following messages will all contain ACK flag.
Based on such an assumption, some protocol stack doesn’t have the corresponding
handling process for TCP message with no flag. Therefore, such a protocol stack
may crash upon receipt of such a message. The attacker will utilize this feature to
attach the target host.
