CVE-2011-2393
Last modified
CVE-2011-2393 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. The Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol implementation in the IPv6 stack in FreeBSD, NetBSD, and possibly other BSD-based operating systems allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and device hang) by sending many Router Advertisement (RA) messages with different source addresses, a similar vulnerability to CVE-2010-4670.. EPSS estimates a 1.98% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
