Sun Solaris Self Encapsulated IP Packets Remote Denial of Service Vulnerability

Sun Solaris is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability because it fails to handle specially crafted network data.

A remote attacker can exploit this issue to cause the affected server to crash, resulting in a denial-of-service condition.

This issue affects Solaris 8, 9, and 10 for SPARC and x86 platforms.
