1. Send sequentially (i.e., ALMOST on the same time) the following
protocols:
- ICMP: Internet Control Message Protocol
- IGMP: Internet Group Management Protocol
- TCP: Transmission Control Protocol
- UDP: User Datagram Protocol
2. Send an (quite) incredible amount of packets per second, making it a
“second to none” tool:
- More than 1,000,000 pps of SYN Flood (+50% of the network’s uplink) in
a 1000BASE-T Network (Gigabit Ethernet).
An FWSM that has the MGCP application layer protocol inspection feature
enabled may reload when a crafted MGCP packet is processed by the
device. MGCP application layer protocol inspection is not enabled by
default.
MGCP messages are transmitted over the User Datagram Protocol (UDP),
which does allow the crafted MGCP messages to be sourced from a spoofed
address. Only the MGCP for gateway application (MGCP traffic on UDP port
2427) is affected.
To determine whether MGCP inspection is configured on the FWSM, log
A PIX or ASA security appliance with the Media Gateway Control Protocol
(MGCP) application layer protocol inspection feature enabled may reload

Summary
=======
Cisco 10000, uBR10012 and uBR7200 series devices use a User Datagram
Protocol (UDP) based Inter-Process Communication (IPC) channel that
is externally reachable. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability
to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on affected devices. No
other platforms are affected.
Cisco has released free software updates that address this

The Mobile IP Support NAT Traversal feature is documented in RFC
3519. It introduces an alternative method for tunneling Mobile IP
data traffic. New extensions in the Mobile IP registration request
and reply messages have been added for establishing User Datagram
Protocol (UDP) tunneling. This feature allows mobile devices in
collocated mode that use a private IP address (RFC 1918) or foreign
agents (FAs) that use a private IP address for the care-of address
(CoA) to establish a tunnel and traverse a NAT-enabled router with
mobile node (MN) data traffic from the home agent (HA).
There are three general types of SNMP operations: "get" requests to
request information, "set" requests that modify the configuration of
a remote device, and "trap" messages that provide a monitoring
function. SNMP requests and traps are transported over User Datagram
Protocol (UDP) and are received at the assigned destination port
numbers 161 and 162, respectively.
SNMPv3 provides secure access to devices by authenticating and
encrypting packets over the network. RFC2574 defines
the use of HMAC-MD5-96 and HMAC-SHA-96 as the possible authentication
