Investigations going on... The advisory is imprecise: sending one byte on port 6789 will not always kill db2jds.exe (= DB2 JDBC Applet Server). I did a few trials. db2jds may be killed by find_services, db2_dos.nasl, or miscflood.nasl So, you may run db2_dos.nasl, but if it does not kill DB2 does not mean that you are not vulnerable. Here is an enhanced (?) version of the script, but it does not seem to be enough to kill the service anyway.
