FKIE_CVE-2026-48715

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-06-19 20:16 - Updated: 2026-06-19 20:16
Severity
7.7 (High) - CVSS:4.0/AV:A/AC:H/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Summary
radvd is a router advertisement daemon for IPv6. Prior to version 2.21, the `radvdump` utility shipped with radvd contains a stack buffer overflow in the Route Information option parser. When processing a crafted ICMPv6 Router Advertisement, `print_ff()` copies up to 2032 bytes from attacker-controlled packet data into a 16-byte `struct in6_addr` on the stack, overflowing by up to 2016 bytes. Note that the main `radvd` daemon is not affected by the vulnerability. Version 2.21 patches the issue.
