Descriptions

The ip6_route_add function in net/ipv6/route.c in the Linux kernel through 3.13.6 does not properly count the addition of routes, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) via a flood of ICMPv6 Router Advertisement packets.

La función ip6_route_add en net/ipv6/route.c en el kernel de Linux hasta 3.13.6 no cuenta debidamente la suma de rutas, lo que permite a atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (consumo de memoria) a través de una inundación de paquetes de ICMPv6 Router Advertisement.
