A source-routed packet attempts to specify the network path that the system should take. If the system is not configured to block the sending of source-routed packets, an attacker can redirect the system's network traffic.
Parameter:
[yes/no]
Technical Mechanism:
To configure the system to not forward source-routed packets, add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf:
net.inet.ip.sourceroute=0
