It's the first time I've heard of that. Solar Designer is on vendor-sec
and I assume if it were a grave issue vendors would've been notified
in advance.

The securityfocus database isn't really the greatest source for
vulnerability information, this could very well be false alarm.
Plus, there's been some heavy rework on netfilter lately, so even if
this is genuine this could not affect 2.6.8.
If you find further information on this please keep [EMAIL PROTECTED]
posted.
Cheers,
