The IPv6 implementation in the inet subsystem in IBM AIX 6.1 and 7.1, and VIOS 2.2.2.2-FP-26 SP-02, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system hang) via a crafted packet to an IPv6 interface.

The remote host is missing AIX PTF U855283, which is related to the security of the package bos.net.tcp.client.

The remote host is missing AIX PTF U857748, which is related to the security of the package bos.net.tcp.client.

If an AIX machine has IPv6 address configured, and if a malformed IPv6 packet in a specific format is sent to that machine, the machine can hang while processing that packet. The problem can happen only if an IPv6 address is configured on any of the network interfaces.

The remote host is missing AIX PTF U857721, which is related to the security of the package bos.net.tcp.client.

If an AIX machine has IPv6 address configured, and if a malformed IPv6 packet in a specific format is sent to that machine, the machine can hang while processing that packet. The problem can happen only if an IPv6 address is configured on any of the network interfaces.

The remote host is missing AIX PTF U855964, which is related to the security of the package bos.net.tcp.client.
