A problem with PalmOS may result in a denial of service. It has been reported that PalmOS becomes unstable when flooded with ICMP ECHO_REQUEST traffic. A remote attacker can trigger a device lockup condition or cause the Palm OS device to loose network connectivity. This could allow a remote attacker to deny service to legitimate users of a PalmOS device that is connected to a network.
