A security flaw was identified in EDK2, the open-source reference implementation of the UEFI specification, involving a buffer overflow vulnerability. This particular weakness enables an unauthorized attacker within the vicinity of the network to transmit a specifically crafted DHCPv6 message. This, in turn, could result in an information disclosure and compromise the availability of the system.

Mitigation

Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options don't meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
