Due to limitations with ARP/MAC-tables, switches could start sending packages to all ports, other network devices could hang, crash or reboot if they receive lots of MAC-addresses. As a result, a malicious attacker could eavesdrop/sniff network connections over a switched network, and also launch Denial fo Service attacks on a local network. Exploit test code included.
