Description jesper 2001-02-18 20:50:01 UTC
	In the current code we take the port numbers and address from the ICMP packet
we get in, and we use 0 as a wildcard indicator - this means if a attacker sends
us a ICMP packet where the attached IP header (+ 8 bytes) has the address and port
numbers == 0, then we'll treat it as a wildcard, and apply the notification to
all sessions.

Fix: Apply this fix.
