COMMAND
Cayman 3220H
SYSTEMS AFFECTED
Cayman 3220H DSL Router
PROBLEM
'cassius' found following. He found another attack right about
the same time they notified me about the software update.
Versions 5.5 Build R0, 5.3 Build R2, 5.3 Build R1, probably all
other versions and the latest update are vulnerable to ping of
death attacks.
Exploit:
ping -t -l 65500 victim.example.com
All replies will say "Request timed out." Send it some normal
pings too. When you get time outs from normal sized pings the
attack should be done.
Sometimes it stops telnet and http admin services. Other times
the services stay up but the router restarts without routing. If
the router survives just keep hammering it. It will eventually
hose in one way or another.
SOLUTION
Vendor has been notified.
