Description
An integer underflow vulnerability exists in VxWorks 6.8 TCP stack.
This strike simulates a denial of service attack by setting the URGENT TCP pointer to 0 (zero) when communicating with any network service.
By exploiting this flaw, a remote attacker can cause denial of service by crashing the target network stack.
