What black box?

It's hardened freebsd based on intel hardware.  Essentially they are PC's
in rack mountable boxes.

Many services are started on default install which can be used for DoS
(try port scanning one).  If you have access to the nokia support site
(easy to get) you can download other software (shells, PERL, etc).

They are actually routers primarily.  The thing that actually makes these
things secure is when you install CheckPoint on them (and even that has
to be done properly).

http://www.phoneboy.com/ usually has some good stuff on it.  Otherwise
support.nokia.com is pretty up to date on vulnerabilities of their
software.
