Descriptions

The IPv6 protocol allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via crafted IPv6 type 0 route headers (IPV6_RTHDR_TYPE_0) that create network amplification between two routers.

El protocolo IPv6 permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio mediante cabeceras IPv6 de enrutamiento de tipo 0 (IPV6_RTHDR_TYPE_0) lo cual provoca amplificación de la red entre dos enrutadores.
