Have you already tried launching a DOS attack against an Allen Bradley PLC? I only have Siematic PLC's here with me to play with.

I think that ISS released a security advisory in 1998 about Allen Bradley PLCs. Something about not handling an ICMP redirect correctly. As I recall, the things crashed pretty hard.

Unfortunately, I can't remember any more details, but there might be more info on xforce.iss.net.
