You are not vulnerable to the remote attack described under (3), however your kernel may be still buggy. Note that you need a running process that has manipulated its multicast socket filters. If your kernel is buggy and you have local users such an application can always appear, at a time you don't expect it. -- Paul Starzetz iSEC Security Research http://isec.pl/
