Cover Story: Named Data Networking (NDN) represents a promising Information-Centric Networking architecture that emphasizes content names rather than host addresses for communication. Interest Flooding Attacks (IFAs) exploit the Pending Interest Table (PIT) by injecting malicious Interest packets for non-existent or unsatisfiable content, leading to resource exhaustion and denial-of-service attacks. We examine detection and mitigation strategies from 2013 to 2024 to provide current insights into this evolving security challenge. This survey establishes a taxonomy of attack variants, extends to domain-specific implementations in resource-constrained environments, examines adaptations for Internet of Things (IoT) and high-mobility vehicular scenarios, and highlights five critical research directions.
