Cisco Wireless LAN Controller (WLC) devices with software 6.0 and 7.0 before 7.0.220.0, 7.1 before 7.1.91.0, and 7.2 before 7.2.103.0 allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device reload) via a sequence of IPv6 packets, aka Bug ID CSCtt07949.

The Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol implementation in the IPv6 stack in FreeBSD, NetBSD, and possibly other BSD-based operating systems allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and device hang) by sending many Router Advertisement (RA) messages with different source addresses, a similar vulnerability to CVE-2010-4670.

The Linux kernel, when using IPv6, allows remote attackers to determine whether a host is sniffing the network by sending an ICMPv6 Echo Request to a multicast address and determining whether an Echo Reply is sent, as demonstrated by thcping.

Microsoft Windows 2008, 7, Vista, 2003, 2000, and XP, when using IPv6, allows remote attackers to determine whether a host is sniffing the network by sending an ICMPv6 Echo Request to a multicast address and determining whether an Echo Reply is sent, as demonstrated by thcping. NOTE: due to a typo, some sources map CVE-2010-4562 to a ProFTPd mod_sql vulnerability, but that issue is covered by CVE-2010-4652.

Mozilla Firefox before 3.6.26 and 4.x through 6.0, Thunderbird before 3.1.18 and 5.0 through 6.0, and SeaMonkey before 2.4 do not properly enforce the IPv6 literal address syntax, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information by making XMLHttpRequest calls through a proxy and reading the error messages.

The logging functionality in dhcpd in ISC DHCP before 4.2.3-P2, when using Dynamic DNS (DDNS) and issuing IPv6 addresses, does not properly handle the DHCPv6 lease structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and daemon crash) via crafted packets related to a lease-status update.

The ipv6 component in Cisco IOS before 15.1(4)M1.3 allows remote attackers to conduct fingerprinting attacks and obtain potentially sensitive information about the presence of the IOS operating system via an ICMPv6 Echo Request packet containing a Hop-by-Hop (HBH) extension header (EH) with a 0x0c01050c value in the PadN option data, aka Bug ID CSCtq02219.

The ospf6_lsa_is_changed function in ospf6_lsa.c in the OSPFv3 implementation in ospf6d in Quagga before 0.99.19 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (assertion failure and daemon exit) via trailing zero values in the Link State Advertisement (LSA) header list of an IPv6 Database Description message.

The OSPFv3 implementation in ospf6d in Quagga before 0.99.19 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds memory access and daemon crash) via a Link State Update message with an invalid IPv6 prefix length.

Cisco Firewall Services Module (aka FWSM) 3.1 before 3.1(21), 3.2 before 3.2(22), 4.0 before 4.0(16), and 4.1 before 4.1(7), when IPv6 is used, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and module crash or hang) via vectors that trigger syslog message 302015, aka Bug ID CSCti83875.

Unspecified vulnerability in Cisco IOS 12.2SRE before 12.2(33)SRE4, 15.0, and 15.1, and IOS XE 2.1.x through 3.3.x, when an MPLS domain is configured, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device crash) via a crafted IPv6 packet, related to an expired MPLS TTL, aka Bug ID CSCto07919.

Cisco IOS 12.4, 15.0, and 15.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (device reload) via malformed IPv6 packets, aka Bug ID CSCtj41194.

The IPv6 implementation in the kernel in Apple Mac OS X before 10.6.8 allows local users to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and reboot) via vectors involving socket options.

net/ipv6/netfilter/ip6_tables.c in the IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel before 2.6.39 does not place the expected '\0' character at the end of string data in the values of certain structure members, which allows local users to obtain potentially sensitive information from kernel memory by leveraging the CAP_NET_ADMIN capability to issue a crafted request, and then reading the argument to the resulting modprobe process.

The Neighbor Discovery (ND) protocol implementation in Cisco IOS on unspecified switches allows remote attackers to bypass the Router Advertisement Guarding functionality via a fragmented IPv6 packet in which the Router Advertisement (RA) message is contained in the second fragment, as demonstrated by (1) a packet in which the first fragment contains a long Destination Options extension header or (2) a packet in which the first fragment contains an ICMPv6 Echo Request message.

Multiple stack consumption vulnerabilities in the kernel in NetBSD 4.0, 5.0 before 5.0.3, and 5.1 before 5.1.1, when IPsec is enabled, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and panic) or possibly have unspecified other impact via a crafted (1) IPv4 or (2) IPv6 packet with nested IPComp headers.

The default configuration of Microsoft Windows 7 immediately prefers a new IPv6 and DHCPv6 service over a currently used IPv4 and DHCPv4 service upon receipt of an IPv6 Router Advertisement (RA), and does not provide an option to ignore an unexpected RA, which allows remote attackers to conduct man-in-the-middle attacks on communication with external IPv4 servers via vectors involving RAs, a DHCPv6 server, and NAT-PT on the local network, aka a "SLAAC Attack." NOTE: it can be argued that preferring IPv6 complies with RFC 3484, and that attempting to determine the legitimacy of an RA is currently outside the scope of recommended behavior of host operating systems

The stateless address autoconfiguration (aka SLAAC) functionality in the IPv6 networking implementation in Apple iOS before 4.3 and Apple TV before 4.2 places the MAC address into the IPv6 address, which makes it easier for remote IPv6 servers to track users by logging source IPv6 addresses.

Off-by-one error in the dissect_6lowpan_iphc function in packet-6lowpan.c in Wireshark 1.4.0 through 1.4.3 on 32-bit platforms allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a malformed 6LoWPAN IPv6 packet.

Cisco Adaptive Security Appliances (ASA) 5500 series devices with software 7.0 before 7.0(8.12), 7.1 and 7.2 before 7.2(5.2), 8.0 before 8.0(5.21), 8.1 before 8.1(2.49), 8.2 before 8.2(3.6), and 8.3 before 8.3(2.7) and Cisco PIX Security Appliances 500 series devices, when transparent firewall mode is configured but IPv6 is not configured, allow remote attackers to cause a denial of service (packet buffer exhaustion and device outage) via IPv6 traffic, aka Bug ID CSCtj04707.
