Sometimes news finds us in mysterious yet obvious ways. HD set a status which I noticed on my twitter: @hdmoore reading through sctp_houdini.c - one-shot remote linux kernel root - http://kernelbof.blogspot.com/ I asked him about it on IM, wondering if it is real: "looks like that but requires a sctp app to be running" Naturally, I retweeted.
