I was looking through Full Disclosure today and got a notice about the following:

Has anyone been following the thread on NTCanuck ref a DOS vulnerability
they have discovered using UDP? I have no further info than what is in this
thread:
http://ntcanuck.com/net/board/index.php?showtopic=175

But if all that they say is true.........We could be busy!!
I went through the thread in question and am not fully clear as to what it is that is happening. I'm gathering -- basically -- is that a specific (guess?) UDP packet is being crafted -- originally for bandwidth testing -- is getting through firewalls and overloading systems. Does anyone else know of anything else on this or have more details?
