DDoS attacks in 5G-V2X Networks

This dataset contains a set of packet captures collected in a realistic 5G Vehicle-to-Everything (5G-V2X) testbed. We consider the deployment of both benign traffic and Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks under multiple scenarios. We rely on four user equipments (UEs), three physical ones and one emulated UE. UEs are identified with numbers ranging from 2 to 5. The number of attackers is also varied under different scenarios, ranging from 0 (benign traffic only) to 4. The attack traffic type is varied as TCP SYN, UDP, and Mixed (TCP SYN and UDP). The attacks’ source port varies in a range from 100 to 65,535, while the attacks’ destination port is fixed in 80, 22, 443 and 53 for each attacker. The UE’s ID, the number of attackers, the destination port and the attack traffic type are defined in the packet captures' filename, in that order. For each scenario, we also capture packets from the 5G Core Network (CN)’s point of view. For each packet capture, we also provide a respective ARGUS file to extract multiple features, as well as a CSV file to ease the use of such features.
