The inetd shipped with FreeBSD appears vulnerable to the inetd DoS exploit posted on bugtraq. inetd logs the following: Feb 27 10:23:12 host inetd[5337]: ftp/tcp server failing (looping), service terminated System: % uname -v FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE #1: Fri Feb 9 11:27:05 EST 2001 nicks@lorien.slartibartfast.net:/usr/src/sys/compile/LORIEN4 As a workaround, start inetd with the -C flag.
