Good morning America (and good day or night to the rest of the world),
I hope you got a good nights sleep.

There is a new packet of death circulating.  Sending a SYN packet with
the source and destination address & port set to the same value causes
some systems to lockup.  One such system seems to include several versions
of Cisco IOS.

Details on Bugtraq.

Have a nice day.
