Note: The products listed as vulnerable are vulnerable only if IPv6 is licensed and configured for the affected device.

The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) implementation does not validate the origin of Neighbor Discovery messages, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of connectivity) or read private network traffic by way of a spoofed message that modifies the Forward Information Base (FIB).
