Description
The Ubiquiti Discovery (ubnt-discover) protocol suffers from allowing UDP amplification attacks,
which can be used against other assets typically in the form of distributed reflected denial of service (DRDoS) attacks.
The amplification factor for this protocol is 30-35x the size of the request.
