Hi,

Is it correct that this is ACT_ATTACK? I'v not investigated in depth, 
but I'd expect it to be ACT_DESTRUCTIVE_ATTACK, based on it trying to 
actually exploit a DoS condition.

No, it's ACT_ATTACK. It does not perform a DoS, it determines if the
attack can be set up.

For the attack to be effective, you need to spoof UDP packets between
two affected hosts.
