Re: NAI Security Advisory - Windows IP source routing

[eric () INFOBRO COM (Eric D. Williams)]

Logically speaking I would think, unless the stack has been modified (read
replaced)
with an implementation other than MS's then that system would also be
vulnerable.

In the case of packet filtering however, it would seem to be mitigated by the
destination address
entries in the filtering setup.  So, perhaps filtering would not be vulnerable
if configured correctly.
