Synopsis:	Moderate: dhcp security update

Issue date:	2010-11-30

CVE Names:	CVE-2010-3611



A NULL pointer dereference flaw was discovered in the way the dhcpd 

daemon parsed DHCPv6 packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to 

crash dhcpd via a specially-crafted DHCPv6 packet, if dhcpd was running 

as a DHCPv6 server. (CVE-2010-3611)



After installing this update, all DHCP servers will be restarted 

automatically.
