Synopsis: Wyse Winterm 1125SE Remote DOS.

Product: Wyse Winterm 1125SE

Author: Josh Zlatin-Amishav

Date: August 10, 2005

Background:
The Winterm 1125SE is a thin client which runs the Wyse Blazer operating 
system. More information about the Wyse Blazer OS can be found here:
http://support1.wyse.com/1000Series/1Series_Security.htm)

a quote from the above URL:

The Wyse Blazer OS has a closed source and limited distribution (of the 
source code). Attempts to expose vulnerabilities have been non-existent. 
In addition, the products image design and stateless nature make this 
product the most secure Winterm product available.

...

Proprietary OS  The Wyse Blazer product operates on a non-published, 
proprietary OS. This closed architecture makes the product far more 
secure than open source devices.

Issue:
It is possible to remotely crash the Winterm 1125SE terminal by sending 
a malformed packet with ip option len field set to zero.

PoC:
The exploit is identical to BID 7175. See the following URL for exploit
