I tested it on a Cisco 3640 Running IOS 11.3, and the router quite routing until the exploit was stopped. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matthew S.

It would be handy to be able to perform some tests and get an idea of which platforms/ applications are affected.Tested against Win98, WinNT4/sp5,6, Win2K. An interesting side note is that minor changes to this packet cause NT4/Win2k (maybe others, not tested) memory use to jump *substantially* (+70 meg non-paged-pool on a machine with 196 mb phys). There seems to be a hard upper limit, but on machines with
smaller
amounts of memory or smaller swapfiles, ramping up the non-paged-pool
this
much might lead to a BSOD. .phonix.Egads, I thought i'd try this against my linux laptop, and killed our linux router.. i ran it on a machine connected via lan to the router, the router connects to 802.11 wireless gear, that my laptop was on. the wireless gear was fine, the router was locked hard, i was unable to reproduce it afterwards though.. odd. (the screen wouldnt even come out of screen blanking mode while locked) - poptix
