PowerKVM is affected by a vulnerability in the ISC DHCP Daemon. IBM has now addressed this vulnerability.

DESCRIPTION:** ISC DHCP is vulnerable to a denial of service, caused by the failure to limit the number of open TCP connections to the ports for inter-process communications and control. By opening a large number of TCP connections, a remote attacker from within the local network could exploit this vulnerability to become unresponsive or consume all available sockets.
