The vulnerability of the ANI service in the Cisco IOS operating system allows a hacker to trigger a service failure and a device restart.

The vulnerability of the Cisco IOS operating system’s ANI service is related to incomplete validation of input data. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow a malicious actor to trigger a device reboot and a service failure using a specially crafted IPv6 packet...

PT-2016-2919 · Linux +3 · Linux Kernel +3

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel versions prior to 4.8.12 Description: The issue exists due to insufficient input validation in the icmp6 send function. Exploitation of this issue may allow a remote attacker to cause a denial of service using a specially crafted...

kernel: IPv6 connect causes DoS via NULL pointer dereference

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way the Linux kernel's network subsystem handled socket creation with an invalid protocol identifier. A local user could use this flaw to crash the system...

kernel: denial of service (DoS) attack against IPv6 network stacks due to improper handling of Router Advertisements.

It was found that the Linux kernel's TCP/IP protocol suite implementation for IPv6 allowed the Hop Limit value to be set to a smaller value than the default one. An attacker on a local network could use this flaw to prevent systems on that network from sending or receiving network packets...

The vulnerability of the Cisco IOS operating system, which allows a intruder to trigger a service failure

The vulnerability of the PRE module in the Cisco IOS operating system arises due to synchronization errors when using a shared resource. Exploiting this vulnerability allows a malicious actor to cause service failure by initiating frequent connections to devices via the IPv6 protocol...

security flaw

Multiple buffer overflows in Exim before 4.43 may allow attackers to execute arbitrary code via 1 an IPv6 address with more than 8 components, as demonstrated using the -be command line option, which triggers an overflow in the hostaton function, or 2 the -bh command line option or dnsdb PTR...
