You mean what will happend if second rst (4259643274) is close enough to
first (82517592) to reset the connection? If this will be session hijiking
attack first (known) implemented by Kevin Mitnik. So far things moved
forward and sequence number generation algorithm changed a lot.
It is the same situation, which would happen if you will spam remote
side with RST packets with arbitrary sequence number in hope that it
will reset some connection.
