[j-nsp] JUNOS vulnerability with malformed TCP packets

Hello,

i have tried exploiting this on various junos version (8.2, 8.5, 9.2),
all of them crashed immediatly at tcp_input() and rebooted after dumping
the core.

However 7.4 seems to be not vulnerable. Atleast the version i have here
(7.4I20071211_1225_pgoyette) is not affected. Therefor i guess
everything below this (atleast) is not vulnerable...that would explain
why juniper had 6.x removed from the advisory on vulnerable releases.
(But 7.x is still listed...).
I still have 6.x somewhere...if anyone is interessted i can try this on
a spare unit.

One more thing: I was able to firewall this on all releases. So ACL's do
work for some extend. Also you need an open port for this to work (BGP
etc). 

Regards,
Jonas Frey
