Doc Text:
A flaw was found in frr. When the OSPF daemon (ospfd) is configured with the debug command "debug ospf packet all send/recv detail", it attempts to print detailed information about OSPF packets. However, a specially crafted OSPF packet can trigger a NULL pointer dereference in the show_vty_ext_pref_pref_sid function in the ospf_ext.c file, causing the OSPF process to crash and resulting in a denial of service.
