Cisco gives out free software upgrades for any security(PSIRT) issue.
Take the recent 4-byte asn crash advisory:
-- snip --
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/products_security_advisory09186a0080aea4c9.shtml
Customers should have their product serial number available and be
prepared to give the URL of this notice as evidence of entitlement to
a free upgrade. Free upgrades for non-contract customers must be
requested through the TAC.
-- snip --
I would view this as an active attack against the internet
infrastructure and be working with the PSIRT team if it impacted my
network ...
