Posted on 12 November 2011
MS11-083 denial of service proof of concept exploit. It attempts to trigger the ICMP refCount overflow in TCP/IP stack of Win7/Vista/Win2k8 hosts. This requires sending 2^32 UDP packets to a host on a closed port, or 4,294,967,296 packets. A dereference function must be called that is not triggered via UDP but ICMP echo packets. This exploit creates 250 threads and floods a host with UDP packets and then attempts to trigger the de-ref using ping.
