Advisory Published
Updated libndp package fixes security vulnerability:
Libndp is a library (used by NetworkManager) that provides a wrapper for the
IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol. It also provides a tool named ndptool for
sending and receiving NDP messages.
Security Fix(es):
It was found that libndp did not properly validate and check the origin of
Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) messages. An attacker on a non-local network
could use this flaw to advertise a node as a router, allowing them to perform
man-in-the-middle attacks on a connecting client, or disrupt the network
connectivity of that client. (CVE-2016-3698)
