Don't Forward Source-Routed Packets
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:
[no/yes]
Technical Mechanism:
To check if the system is configured to forward source-routed packets, run the following command:
sysctl net.inet.ip.sourceroute
If the value is not set to '0', this is a finding.
