Summary

The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) implementation on IBM zSeries servers does not validate the origin of Neighbor Discovery messages, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of connectivity) or read private network traffic via a spoofed message that modifies the Forward Information Base (FIB), a related issue to CVE-2008-2476.

Exploit prediction (EPSS)

4.17% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days, higher than 91% of all scored CVEs.
