Description Mark J. Cox 2005-05-25 08:42:40 UTC
+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #149590 +++

Herbert Xu said "...you'll also want to fix the dst leak problem.
While not immediately fatal, given enough time, fragments and spoofed
IP addresses, it'll exhaust your memory"

Although this was reported as only affecting 2.6, it appears that RHEL3 is
vulnerable.

Comment 1 Ernie Petrides 2005-05-25 20:37:05 UTC
A fix for this problem was committed to the RHEL3 U6 patch pool
on 22-Apr-2005 (in kernel version 2.4.21-32.2.EL).
