I dunno how many ppl. run 2.3 here... but does anyone
know about the the current IP-MASQ vulnerability on
UDP ports. and is this/will it be addressed in 2.4?
I am running the 2.3 pre series, but i dunno what the
format of ipfilter is... can someone gimme some
pointers where i can get more info... i am not aware
of any user level progs, like ipchains which hook into
the ipfilter of the kernel... does anyone know of it,
or have used it? plz. let me know...

As this vulnerability attack is a bit too risky to
have around, and many of our friends are running
IP-MASQ. Tho its one of the kewlest things about
linux, this exploit makes it a bit too risky now... 

Nikhil.

PS: Its on bugtraq
