Subjectkernel bug -> security problem
Date

Hi,

I've just received e-mail about a bug in the kernel which causes linux
to reboot when the following ping is issued from windowz 95 : "ping -l
65510 linux.box.IP.address" .. I tried it and sure enough linux dies
quickly and without any warning ...


Has someone got more info on this ??? is there a fix ?

Cheers

Jacek - jacek@usq.edu.au
