An issue was discovered in Mikrotik RouterOS. Crafting a packet that has a size of 1 byte and sending it to an IPv6 address of a RouterOS box with IP Protocol 97 will cause RouterOS to reboot imminently. All versions of RouterOS that supports EoIPv6 are vulnerable to this attack.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
