FreeBSD : FreeBSD -- ICMPv6 / MLDv2 out-of-bounds memory access (41d2f3e6-f680-11e9-a87f-a4badb2f4699)

critical Nessus Plugin ID 130241

Language:

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The ICMPv6 input path incorrectly handles cases where an MLDv2 listener query packet is internally fragmented across multiple mbufs.
Impact : A remote attacker may be able to cause an out-of-bounds read or write that may cause the kernel to attempt to access an unmapped page and subsequently panic.

Solution

Update the affected packages.
