tcpdump - ISAKMP Identification Payload Integer Overflow

/*
 * tcpdump packet sniffer
 * Integer underflow in ISAKMP Identification payload
 * denial of service vulnerability
 * proof of concept code
 * version 1.0 (Apr 02 2004)
 * CVE-ID: CAN-2004-0184
 *
 * by Remi Denis-Courmont < exploit at simphalampin dot com >
 *   www simphalempin com dev 
 * Remi Denis-Courmont is not responsible for the misuse of the
 * source code provided hereafter.
 * 
 * This vulnerability was found by:
 *   Rapid7, LLC Security Advisory - www rapid7 com
 * whose original advisory may be fetched from:
 *   www rapid7 com advisories R7-0017 html
 *
 * Vulnerable:
 *  - tcpdump 3.8.1
 *
 * Not vulnerable:
 *  - tcpdump 3.8.3
 *
 * NOTES:
 *   The vulnerability cannot be exploited to cause a denial of service
 * with the Debian's tcpdump packages as it was partly fixed as part of
 * the fix for earlier known CAN-2003-0108 vulnerability, though the bug
 * is still present. That may be the case for other vendors which were
 * not investigated.
 *
 *   tcpdump must be run with a verbosity level of at least 3:
 * # tcpdump -vvv
 * Otherwise, no denial of service will occur.
