    They've been discussing the existence of
    a new Cisco IOS attack on the NANOG mailing
    list (see http://www.merit.edu/mail.archives/nanog/ for
    details)

    According to what I've been reading it's a remotely
    exploitable denial of service situation, based on
    specially crafted packets designed to fill up the
    "process switched" input queues on an interface.

    It seemingly will cause the router to crash or
    reboot.

    I have no further details.
