CVE-2024-20446 - Cisco NX-OS DHCPv6 Relay Agent DoS Vulnerability
CVE ID : CVE-2024-20446 Published : Aug. 28, 2024, 5:15 p.m. | 1 hour, 44 minutes ago Description : A vulnerability in the DHCPv6 relay agent of Cisco NX-OS Software could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition on an affected device. This vulnerability is due to improper handling of specific fields in a DHCPv6 RELAY-REPLY message. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a crafted DHCPv6 packet to any IPv6 address that is configured on an affected device. A successful exploit could allow the attacker to cause the dhcp_snoop process to crash and restart multiple times, causing the affected device to reload and resulting in a DoS condition.
