CVE-2006-7028
Single CPU Sun systems running Solaris 7, 8, or 9, such as Netra, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (console hang) via a flood of small TCP/IP packets.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (1.62%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Single CPU Sun systems running Solaris 7, 8, or 9, such as Netra, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (console hang) via a flood of small TCP/IP packets. NOTE: this issue has not been replicated by third parties. In addition, the cause is unknown, although it might be related to "jabber" and generation of a large amount of interrupts within the console, or a hardware error.
