  - Nmap through 7.99 does not keep the IPv6 extension-header walk within the captured packet in
    ipv6_get_data_primitive (libnetutil/netutil.cc), so the pointer advances past the buffer and the
    remaining-length computation underflows to a large value. A scanned target or on-path attacker returning a
    crafted IPv6 response with a truncated extension header can trigger out-of-bounds reads and a crash during
    raw IPv6 scans. (CVE-2026-58058)
