"The version of Palo Alto Networks PAN-OS running on the remote host is
7.0.x < 7.0.6. It is, therefore, affected by a flaw in the firewall
functionality that is triggered when the firewall is configured as a
DHCP relay and it receives DHCP requests from a third-party client or
server that exceed the payload length specified in RFC-2132. An
unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted DHCP
packet, to cause the dataplane to restart, resulting in a denial of
service condition.");
