Spoofing
Using someone else's IP address to create IP packets is known as a spoofing. Sometimes people misunderstand that "IP spoofing" will lead to hiding IP while surfing Internet, sending e-mail and chatting online. It's not true idea. By creating IP address you cannot have a normal connection.
In IP spoofing, attacker has unautorized access to a computer or a network by sending a malicious message from a trusted machine and "spoofing" the IP address of target machine.
In Non binding spoofing attack, intruder is a real victim. Hijacking is the biggest well known threat for this type of spoofing. This will occur within the corrupting of data stream in an established connection, and re-establish it based on defined numbers for attack machine. By applyiing this technique, attacker can pass any authentication measure.
The other kind of spoofing is known as Binding Spoofing which is more sophisticated and unreachable. In this method, several packets are sent to the target machine. In the past, machines used basic techniques for generating sequence numbers and it was easy to discover the exact formula for decrypting them but today, random sequence number generations, make it difficult to predict exact formula.
