Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Novell BorderManager version 3.5

Description: The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service by filling the connection table with a large number of connection requests to hosts that do not have a specific route, which may be forwarded to the public interface. This occurs when PAT (Port-Address Translate) is enabled.

Recommendations: For Novell BorderManager version 3.5, consider disabling PAT (Port-Address Translate) as a temporary workaround to minimize the risk of exploitation. Restrict access to the connection table to prevent a large number of connection requests from filling it.
