Sun Solaris IP Implementation Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability

Sun Solaris IP Implementation Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability

Sun Solaris is prone to a local and remote denial-of-service vulnerability because the software fails to handle exceptional conditions.

An attacker can exploit this issue to exhaust CPU resources and cause a denial-of-service condition against network services provided by the system or local services.

This issue affects Solaris 8 and Solaris 9.
