The ports that were found vulnerable include TCP ports 7, 9, 21, 23, 7778 and UDP ports 53, 67, 68, 135, 137, 500, 1812, 1813, 2535, 3456. This can easily be reproduced from a Linux system using netcat with an input of /dev/zero, with a command such as "nc target.host 7 < /dev/zero" for the TCP variant or "nc -u target.host 53 < /dev/zero" for the UDP variant.
