Upstream information
Description
The (1) IPv4 and (2) IPv6 implementations in the Linux kernel before 3.1 use a modified MD4 algorithm to generate sequence numbers and Fragment Identification values, which makes it easier for remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disrupted networking) or hijack network sessions by predicting these values and sending crafted packets.SUSE information

Note from the SUSE Security Team
While a fix was released for SUSE Linux Enterprise 11 SP1 via the 2.6.32.stable tree, the SUSE kernel engineering team is currently not considering a backport for older SUSE Linux Enterprise versions for this problem.Reasons are:
- The patches are tricky to backport and risk of unintended and undiscovered breakage is high.
- The currently used 24 bit strong MD4 hashing still covers all but extreme scenarios, where a potential attacker must be in gigabit ethernet reach in close proximity to the targeted machine. This is likely to remain the case during the SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 life time.
- Current usage of cryptographic protocols will make this attack ineffective.
- Non local attackers will likely be caught by the network ingres filtering that is strongly recommended these days.
