I've managed to make considerable progress. I'm posting this more
as information and as a warning for others to heed.
The moral of the story is:
- configure your linux systems well and secure them tightly.
- apply any security updates for network daemons as soon as they
become avai

Thanks for confirming that I'm not the only one seeing this.
The update is that I'm now seeing this happen
Hi Tony,
I don't recognize the specific attack, but it certainly looks like
other buffer overflow attacks that I've seen on syslog events. If
you don't know what service is being attacked you can either look
for the service by its pid (assuming it is still running), look
for a startup message
