I've seen no traffic, but I've heard reports that the State of Minnesota public website is getting some packet-love today.  The victim site is www.state.mn.us which uses IPS 156.98.89.81 and 207.171.110.89.  (Both IPS are receiving the offending packets.)  The vector appears to be UDP-80 traffic.

I've been provided with 2 source IPS for this traffic, but given the protocol, these could just be being consistently spoofed, so take with a grain of salt:

88.191.146.244 (sd-31125.dedibox.fr (FR-DEDIBOX, Dedibox SAS, Paris FR netblock))

50.17.95.181 (ec2-50-17-95-181.compute-1.amazonaws.com (AMAZON-EC2, Amazon.com, Inc., Seattle WA netblock))



If anyone can assist (info, squishing any spoofing sources, etc) I would appreciate it.



Very Respectfully,
