NSFOCUS Security Advisory(SA2000-03) - A denial of service vulnerability has been found in the IPX/SPX protocol implementation. When a WIN9x host receives a IPX NMPI packet that has the same source and destination machine name of its own, it will be lead to an infinite loop of sending and receiving packets. This attack will consume a large sum of CPU resource of attacked host, causing it to crash.
