It was discovered that by sending crafted Router Advertisement packets, an attacker on the local network could lower the Current Hop Limit and cause the system to lose the ability to communicate with another IPv6 node on a different network. . - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Debian Security Advisory DSA-3175-2 This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. http://www.debian.org/security/ Alessandro Ghedini May 18, 2015 http://www.debian.org/security/faq - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Package : kfreebsd-9 CVE ID : CVE-2015-1414 CVE-2015-2923 Debian Bug : 779201 782735 It was discovered that by sending crafted Router Advertisement packets, an attacker on the local network could lower the Current Hop Limit and cause the system to lose the ability to communicate with another IPv6 node on a different network. Additionally, it was discovered that the patch applied to kfreebsd-9 in DSA-3175-1 for CVE-2015-1414 was incomplete. For reference the original advisory text follows: Mateusz Kocielski and Marek Kroemeke discovered that an integer overflow in IGMP processing may result in denial of service through malformed IGMP packets. For the oldstable distribution (wheezy), these problems have been fixed in version 9.0-10+deb70.10. We recommend that you upgrade your kfreebsd-9 packages.
