This signature detects Microsoft Teredo packets. Windows Firewall does not properly filter these packets. This vulnerability can allow incoming unsolicited network traffic to access a network interface, potentially enabling an attacker to gather information on the affected host.
Windows Firewall for Windows Vista is prone to a vulnerability that may permit a bypass of existing firewall rules. An attacker may trigger this vulnerability by sending malicious network data through the Teredo network transport system to obtain sensitive information; other attacks are also possible. Note that Windows Vista systems configured with a 'Public' network profile are not vulnerable to this issue.
