Official Description
Single CPU Sun systems running Solaris 7, 8, or 9, such as Netra, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (console hang) via a flood of small TCP/IP packets. NOTE: this issue has not been replicated by third parties. In addition, the cause is unknown, although it might be related to "jabber" and generation of a large amount of interrupts within the console, or a hardware error.
Technical Analysis
CVE-2006-7028 can be exploited remotely over the network without requiring physical or adjacent access, significantly expanding the attack surface for threat actors.
