Promiscuous interface hacks?

[Paul Schmehl <pauls () utdallas edu>]

I admit I'm ignorant of this (which is why I'm asking the question), but I 
think this is probably the best list that I'm aware of to ask this question.

Is anyone aware of any methods (or white papers describing methods) that 
describe ways that can be used to hack a box through a NIC that is in 
promiscuous mode?  I'm curious because I'm wondering how serious the recent 
vulnerabilities in snort really are to a box that's set up in promiscuous 
mode.
