Re: Loopback and multi-homed routing flaw in TCP/IP stack.

2.2 is vulnerable, but 2.4 is not. as far as i can tell, 2.4 systems
don't even have a localhost routing entry anymore.

We've been testing with a kernel 2.2.16 victim, which is standard with
RH7.0 and an attacker with kernel 2.0.34. I can see packets comming in
from the attacker, but the kernel does not respond to these.

We also set up an attacker with kernel 2.2.16 and tried the same attack.
No packets arrive on the victim.
