Clavister Information for VU#471084

Date Notified:
Date Updated:
Status Summary:Not Vulnerable

Vendor Statement

Clavister Firewall: Not vulnerable

Clavister Firewall uses its own self-contained operating system and is, as such, not affected by Linux bugs.

It can, however, protect vulnerable linux machines by blocking ICMP errors and stripping the "Don't Fragment" bit of all packets that pass through it to avoid the Path MTU Discovery "black holes" that otherwise result from blocking ICMP errors.
