CVE-2017-6519 (GCVE-0-2017-6519)

Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2017-05-01 01:00 – Updated: 2025-12-03 21:57
VLAI
Summary
avahi-daemon in Avahi through 0.6.32 and 0.7 inadvertently responds to IPv6 unicast queries with source addresses that are not on-link, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (traffic amplification) and may cause information leakage by obtaining potentially sensitive information from the responding device via port-5353 UDP packets. NOTE: this may overlap CVE-2015-2809.
