for what little it's worth, this was first reported to me (erroneously) on
9/11/2014 as ticket 2970179.  I forwarded the report to sipbv6@mit.edu and
sipb-machine-room@mit.edu ; at around noon on 9/11/14 asedeno@ responded and
said he fixed the machine.   Since the followup shows an attack happening on
9/13, it looks like whatever fixes he made were not complete..
