Package: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686-smp
Version: 2.6.8-13
Severity: critical
Tags: security
Justification: breaks the whole system
kernel oops while trying to do a snmpwalk from a remote host. the entire
udp stack becomes unresponsive and reboot fails when trying to bring
down network interfaces. unsure if this is exploitable for a DoS attack,
will investigate further when i have time if this not a know issue.

vlan tagging is in use on the interface that recieves the udp packet
