+	<h1>Problem Description:</h1>
+	<p>While processing acknowledgements, the RACK code uses
+	several linked lists to maintain state entries. A malicious
+	attacker can cause the lists to grow unbounded. This can
+	cause an expensive list traversal on every packet being
+	processed, leading to resource exhaustion and a denial of
+	service.</p>
+	<h1>Impact:</h1>
+	<p>An attacker with the ability to send specially crafted
+	TCP traffic to a victim system can degrade network performance
+	and/or consume excessive CPU by exploiting the inefficiency
+	of traversing the potentially very large RACK linked lists
+	with relatively small bandwidth cost.</p>
