DESCRIPTION:
Luigi Auriemma has discovered a vulnerability in NET-i ware, which
can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of
Service).

The vulnerability is caused due to an error in the NET-iware Master
and Storage services when processing certain packets. This can be
exploited to cause excessive consumption of CPU resources and prevent
further connections via specially crafted packets sent to TCP port
4505 or 4508.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 1.37.120306. Other versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Restrict access to trusted hosts only.
