Vulnerability CVE-2014-2309

Vulnerability Name:

CVE-2014-2309 (CCN-91746)

Assigned:

2014-03-06

Published:

2014-03-06

Updated:

2020-08-27

Summary:

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.
