Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
TCP implementations (affected versions not specified)
Description
The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by setting the maximum segment size (MSS) to a very small number and requesting large amounts of data. This generates more packets with less TCP-level data, amplifying network traffic and consuming more server CPU to process.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
