Bug Description

In several of the Linux Firewall books, the authors mention the TCP flag patterns used in scanning for targets. In my original homebrew firewall (in old Red Hat 5) I included the patterns mentions in the books. I had since updated my firewalls for CentOS 7. I would appreciate if you would look over these rules, and consider adding them to your project.
