   From what I can see, it's not ASN itself, but how it was implemented.
If other OpSys's share code or implementation problems, it could become
similar to the SNMP problem.   There's still a boatload of hardware that we
have to manage via SNMP which runs the original vulnerable version.  We
write router ACLs to minimize exposure, but there's only so much you can do
with some of it.   Luckily, they can't do more than bring the device down.
