nuqneH,

Back to my original question, do we know any firewall that _does_protect_
(not _is_immune!_) this vulnerability?

it depends which OS you are using. The exploitable code was derived from the
original BSD code - so the assumption was made, that the OSes derived from
System V (or written from scratch) are not vulnerable to _this_ buffer
overflow.

If FreeBSD is vulnerable, would the FW-1 IPSO Nokia devices be
vulnerable as well? (and any other network-application based around
*BSDs??)

I know there are a few other firewalls based off FreeBSD.
