		Changes since 4.1.2 and 4.1-ESV


! When processing a request in the DHCPv6 server code that specifies
  an address that is tagged as abandoned (meaning we received a
  decline request for it previously) don't attempt to move it from
  the inactive to active pool as doing so can result in the server
  crshing on an assert failure.  Also retag the lease as active
  and reset it's timeout value.

	Internet Systems Consortium Security Advisory
    DHCP May Crash After Processing a DHCPv6 Decline Message
			26 January 2011

Title: DHCP May Crash After Processing a DHCPv6 Decline Message

CVE-2011-0413

VU#686084

CVSS: 6.1
Vector Equation: (AV:A/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C)

For more information on CVSS scores, visit
http://nvd.nist.gov/cvss.cfm?calculator&adv&version=2

Posting date: 2011-01-26

Program Impacted: DHCP

Versions affected: 4.0.x-4.2.x

Severity: moderate

Exploitable: remotely

Description and Impact:

When the DHCPv6 server code processes a message for an address that was
previously declined and internally tagged as abandoned it can trigger an
assert failure resulting in the server crashing. This could be used to
crash DHCPv6 servers remotely. This issue only affects DHCPv6 servers.
DHCPv4 servers are unaffected.

Workarounds: No direct workaround.

Exposure to the vulnerability can be limited by a review of the filters
and access to the DHCP server. It is highly recommended to limit access
to those devices which require DHCP server, management access, and
systems monitoring.

Active exploits: None known.

Solution: Upgrade to 4.1.2-P1, 4.1-ESV-R1, or 4.2.1b1.
