On a side note, when I was testing this vulnerability, I tried varying the size of the ICMP packet. Strangely enough, I got no response if the packet was of size 1469 bytes, or 1471 bytes. There must be something special about 1470 byte ICMP packets. Anyone have any ideas?
Something about fragmentation maybe? Maybe just on the cusp where it expects another packet with the continuation and doesn't get it, or gets the continuation but doesn't expect it? Tuc/TBOH
