- Frech> XF:realsecure-rskill-dos | Christey> CHANGEREF XF:realsecure-rskill-dos to XF:realsecure-frag-syn-dos? | http://xforce.iss.net/static/5133.php | CHANGE> [Christey changed vote from NOOP to REVIEWING] | Christey> In an email to issforum@iss.net on September 7, 2000, ISS says | that Network Sensor 3.2.2 is affected by SYN flooding, but | RealSecure 5.0 is not affected by Syn flooding. In addition, | they could not find conclusive evidence that RS 3.2.2 or 5.0 | was affected by IP fragmentation. This seems to indicate | that there are 2 *possible* problems: syn flooding (acknowledged | by ISS) and fragmentation (unconfirmed). Perhaps this | candidate needs to be split, or its description should be | rewritten to separate the 2 reported problems. | Frech> XF:realsecure-rskill-dos(5133)
