Predictable TCP ISN(Initial Sequence Number) vulnerability problem

This server uses TCP/IP implementation that repects the "64K rule" or a "time dependent rule" for generating TCP sequence numbers. Unauthorizd users can predict sequence numbers when hosts are
cummnicating, and connect to your servers from any source IP address. The only difference with a legitimate connection is that the attacker will not see the replies sent back to the authorized user whose IP was forged.
