Descriptions

The (1) IPv4 and (2) IPv6 implementations in the Linux kernel before 3.1 use a modified MD4 algorithm to generate sequence numbers and Fragment Identification values, which makes it easier for remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disrupted networking) or hijack network sessions by predicting these values and sending crafted packets.

Las implementaciones de (1) IPv4 y (2) IPv6 en el kernel de Linux antes de v3.1 utiliza una versión modificada de algoritmo MD4 para generar números de secuencia y valores de los fragmentos de identificación, lo que hace que sea más fácil para los atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (red interrumpida) o secuestrar sesiones de red mediante la predicción de estos valores y el envío de paquetes manipulados.
