From 24c6927505ca77ee4ac25fb31dcd56f6506979ed Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Stevens Date: Fri, 2 Dec 2005 20:32:59 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [IGMP]: workaround for IGMP v1/v2 bug From: David Stevens As explained at: http://www.cs.ucsb.edu/~krishna/igmp_dos/ With IGMP version 1 and 2 it is possible to inject a unicast report to a client which will make it ignore multicast reports sent later by the router. The fix is to only accept the report if is was sent to a multicast or unicast address. Signed-off-by: David S.
