IPFilter provides NAT (Network Address Translation) and packet filter firewalling. The SGI IRIX /dev/MAKEDEV script creates the ipfilter device with world-read permission by default. Unprivileged malicious local users may exploit this condition to gain unauthorized access to the device. This may allow for a denial of service.
