Description Marian Rehak 2019-05-10 12:51:17 UTC
Double-deletion of the released addresses in the dhcpv6 code leading to crash and possible DoS. This issue was introduced by a commit which fixes a bug in the ISC heap library.

Created dhcp tracking bugs for this issue:

Affects: fedora-all [bug 1708642]

Comment 2 Doran Moppert 2019-05-15 06:13:42 UTC
This flaw is in the dhcp server code (binary package dhcp), client-side code is not affected.
