Hi all,
        I am getting the following Vulnerability :
general/tcp
High

It was possible to crash the remote host by sending a specially
malformed TCP/IP packet with invalid TCP options. Only the version
2.6 of the Linux Kernel is known to be affected by this problem.

An attacker may use this flaw to disable this host remotely.

Solution : Upgrade to Linux 2.6.7
Risk factor : High
BID : 10634



I referrred to the following link :  http://www.securityfocus.com/bid/10634
and found that this is a Linux Vulnerability
I am scanning a system which has Solaris 9 as the OS, and not Linux

Is this a false positive ?
