OpenBSD 4.2 allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel panic) by calling the SIOCGIFRTLABEL IOCTL on an interface that does not have a route label, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference when the return value from the rtlabel_id2name function is not checked.

Exploit prediction (EPSS)

0.85% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 58% of all scored CVEs.
