When no challenge ACK should be sent the function returns and leaks the mbuf.\n\nIf an attacker is either on path with an established TCP connection, or can themselves establish a TCP connection, to an affected FreeBSD machine, they can easily craft and send packets which meet the challenge ACK criteria and cause the FreeBSD host to leak an mbuf for each crafted packet in excess of the configured rate limit settings i.e. with default settings, crafted packets in excess of the first 5 sent within a 1s period will leak an mbuf.\n\nTechnically, off-path attackers can also exploit this problem by guessing the IP addresses, TCP port numbers and in some cases the sequence numbers of established connections and spoofing packets towards a FreeBSD machine, but this is harder to do effectively."}, {"lang": "es", "value": "Cuando se debe enviar un ACK de desaf\u00edo, tcp_respond() construye y env\u00eda el ACK de desaf\u00edo y consume el mbuf que se le pasa.
