Believe it or not, I got a OpenBSD-2.9 current hanged up out there. I'll test further systems. What amazed me was different types of system reaction with different drivers at different links.
Maybe there's something wrong with your approach or test environment. As long as there's no comsat or any other service running on this port, and you do not actually trash your link layer, there's absolutely no reason for this to succeed. It is normal, system-generated UDP packet, and apparently, as expected, has no impact on boxes I can reach from there... -- _____________________________________________________ Michal Zalewski [lcamtuf () bos bindview com] [security] [http://lcamtuf.coredump.cx] <=-=> bash$ :(){ :|:&};: =-=> Did you know that clones never use mirrors? <=-=
