I agree, it really does sound like a HOAX to me and those I gave the link to. With all the time that has passed since he "notified" everyone, It is just too "hoax like" that there hasn't been a formal announcement from at least one of those guys about this. Causing Physical damage to equipment???? Good luck.... although way back when there was a program that would set the refresh rate on your monitor very very high and it could cause the monitor to die.... Doesn't happen anymore though :-) Exibar ----- Original Message ----- From: "hicks" <hicks () comcast net> To: "Chris Brown" <Chris () get-tuf com>; <full-disclosure () lists netsys com> Sent: Wednesday, January 21, 2004 7:38 PM Subject: Re: [Full-disclosure] DOS all platforms
I have read and posted to his site, he claims that the CERT only acknowledges that its a UDP flood and are not concerned with it. He also claims that it does physical damage to hardware on devices and that some need a reisntall of OS and a firmware upgrade. There is no *REAL* information here. I Consider it a HOAX and will treat it as such. And he doesnt care what anyone thinks. Oh well, someone else can try and talk to him :/ Would make me busy though , or not guess _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
