Description:
Paul Kurczaba has reported a security issue in Linksys BEFSR41, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).

The issue is caused due to an error in the connection handling, which can be exploited to block legitimate access to the administrative web interface by establishing a single connection. This prevents further connections from being established.
