Hallo Sebastian,

[...] 
    Tcpdump is a well known tool for administrators to analyze network
    traffic.
      There is a bug in the tcpdump code responsible for handling ISAKMP
    messages. This bug allows remote attackers to destroy a current
    tcpdump session by tricking the tcpdump program with evil ISAKMP
    messages to enter an endless loop.

has anybody got some example code for it?
regards nico
