  ICMP Attacks Against TCP Vulnerability Exploit
------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUMMARY

Attackers can send a specially crafted Internet Control Message Protocol 
(ICMP) message that will cause a denial of service for the affected 
systems. An attacker who successfully exploited this vulnerability could 
cause the affected system to reset existing TCP connections, reduce the 
throughput in existing TCP connections, or consume large amounts of CPU 
and memory resources.

 * Protocol (ICMP) message to an affected system. An attacker who
 * successfully exploited this vulnerability could cause the affected
 * system to reset existing TCP connections, reduce the throughput
 * in existing TCP connections, or consume large amounts of CPU and
