In OpenBSD through 7.8, the slaacd and rad daemons have an infinite loop when they receive a crafted ICMPv6 Neighbor Discovery (ND) option (over a local network) with length zero, because of an "nd_opt_len * 8 - 2" expression with no preceding check for whether nd_opt_len is zero.
AnalysisAI
Denial-of-service in OpenBSD slaacd and rad daemons allows local network attackers to trigger infinite loops by sending crafted ICMPv6 Neighbor Discovery packets with zero-length options, causing affected daemons to hang due to missing validation of the nd_opt_len field before arithmetic operations. OpenBSD versions through 7.8 are affected. …
