I’m leaning towards the User-defined worm being blocked too, but I’m not confident about the Backdoor attack. It seems like it could bypass those limits.

I practiced a similar question about blocking attacks with header limits, and I feel like the Land attack is more about TCP/IP issues, so it might not be affected.

I think the Code Red worm might be one of them since it exploits vulnerabilities in web servers, but I need to double-check that.

I remember studying response header limitations, but I'm not entirely sure which specific attacks they would block.
