thing is they found this out by simply running scans on servers.. and a scan which ran something like 40 packets per second caused MAJOR servers to drop.
when they investigated what happened they realized a very simple and light DoS to the tcp/ip stack caused the system to crash.
This is something that is new, this exact exploit has never been seen before.
