DoS attack phones SonyEricsson

A remote user may perform a DoS attack due to an error while processing WAP Push packets.
Denial of service can be caused by a specially formed SMS message or UDP packet sent to port 2948 (in this case, one packet can be used to attack a large number of devices).
The attack causes a reboot or crash.

To restore the normal operation of the phone, you need to remove the battery from it (well, then insert it back :)) As it turned out from the video , you can not do this

An attacker can send several identical SMS messages in order to extend the denial of service.
