Title: Axent Raptor Denial of Service Vulnerability
Severity: HIGH
Description:
It is possible to remotely lock Axent Raptor firewalls by sending them packets with malformed IP options fields. According to an advisory posted to bugtraq by the perdue CERIAS labs, setting the SECURITY and TIMESTAMP IP options length to 0 can cause an infinite loop to occur within the code that handles the options (resulting in the software freezing). A consequence of this is a remote denial of service.
Affected Products:
- Axent Raptor 6.0.0
