I search in kernel archives and Changelogs for information about the syncookies firewall breaking problem , where one person can bypass the firewall in one machine with TCP SYNCOOKIES enabled and where the firewall are based on SYN filtering to block only incoming TCP connections, but let outgoing connections pass. The lastest stable version of kernel 2.4.17 have it corrected? If yes, in which version of kernel it are corrected? If not, when it will be corrected?   Thanks a lot for attention and sorry for my poor English.
