Security bug in 2.4 netfilter (kernel side)

[MonMotha]

See info at 
http://www.netfilter.org/security/2002-02-25-irc-dcc-mask.html about a 
flaw in the connection tracking for the IRC DCC module.  See my posts on 
my firewall mailing lists for more info.

This is a kernel side flaw and would affect any ruleset using the 
RELATED state, a patch is provided.

This vulneribility was released on 25 February 2002.
