Description: NTA-Monitor has reported a vulnerability in Nortel VPN Routers, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the handling of IKE packets and can be exploited via a specially crafted IKE packet containing a malformed ISAKMP header.
Successful exploitation causes the VPN router to crash or reboot.
