detects network traffic that may constitute an attack.

-- 
Impact:

--
Detailed Information:
The pre-processor stream4 has detected network traffic that may indicate
a FIN stealth scan is in progress. That is, packets with the FIN flag
set have been detected that are not part of a normal TCP stream.

--
Affected Systems:
	All systems

--
Attack Scenarios: 
An attacker may utilize scanning techniques to determine possible points
of exploitation against a host.

-- 
Ease of Attack: 
Simple. Many scanning tools exist.

-- 
False Positives:

--
False Negatives:
None Known.

-- 
Corrective Action:
Check the target host for signs of compromise.

Ensure the system is up to date with any appropriate vendor supplied patches.
