This is sunkill.c

It Affects at least solaris 2.5.1 machines, both sun4c and sun4m
achitecutures.  I imagine it affects all solaris 2.5.1 machines, both sparc
and x86, but im not sure.  It basically works by opening a telnet
connection on the victim machine and sends a few bad telnet negotiation
options, then flooods the port with lots of ^D characters.  This uses all
the streams memory (i think) on the victims machine and causes the kernel
to get very angry.  The machien crawls to a halt, the cursor in X stops
moving, the machine is unresponsive to the network.  Its a bad situation
all around.
