This vector exploits protocols like DNS, NTP, or Memcached that respond to small queries with large replies. An attacker sends a tiny, spoofed request (e.g., "give me all records for this domain") to a public server, but with the victim’s IP address listed as the return address. The server, acting as an unwitting exploder, then sends a massive response to the victim. With a botnet coordinating thousands of such requests, an initial trickle of attack traffic can be exploded into a tsunami of gigabytes per second. The infamous 2018 GitHub attack, which peaked at 1.35 Tbps, was a masterclass in this destructive multiplication, leveraging memcached servers as unintentional traffic exploders.
