The evil bit is a fictional IPv4 packet header field proposed in a humorous April Fools' Day RFC from 2003,[1] authored by Steve Bellovin. The Request for Comments recommended that the last remaining unused bit, the "Reserved Bit"[2] in the IPv4 packet header, be used to indicate whether a packet had been sent with malicious intent, thus making computer security engineering an easy problem – simply ignore any messages with the evil bit set and trust the rest.
