Linux Kernel IPv6 Router Advertisement Packets Processing Denial of Service (CVE-2014-2309)

A denial of service vulnerability exists in the Linux kernel. The vulnerability is due to the way it handles IPv6 router advertisement packets. A remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by sending maliciously crafted packets to a vulnerable system...

Kernel: net: IPv6: crash due to router advertisement flooding

The ip6routeadd function in net/ipv6/route.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 does not properly count the addition of routes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service memory consumption via a flood of ICMPv6 Router Advertisement packets...

CVE-2011-3603

The router advertisement daemon radvd before 1.8.2 does not properly handle errors in the privsepinit function, which causes the radvd daemon to run as root and has an unspecified impact...

DEBIAN-CVE-2011-3602

Directory traversal vulnerability in device-linux.c in the router advertisement daemon radvd before 1.8.2 allows local users to overwrite arbitrary files, and remote attackers to overwrite certain files, via a .. dot dot in an interface name. NOTE: this can be leveraged with a symlink to overwrit...

CVE-2011-3603

The CVE-2011-3603 issue affects the router advertisement daemon (radvd) prior to version 1.8.2. The root cause is improper error handling in privsep_init, which can cause radvd to run with root privileges, leading to a partial confidentiality/integrity/availability impact as described (and noted ...

CVE-2011-3602

CVE-2011-3602 is a directory traversal vulnerability in the router advertisement daemon, radvd, affecting radvd before 1.8.2. An attacker can exploit an interface name containing a “..” to overwrite arbitrary files, and this can be leveraged with a symlink to overwrite additional files. The issue...
