CVE-2026-5367
A flaw was found in OVN (Open Virtual Network). A remote attacker, by sending crafted DHCPv6 (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6) SOLICIT packets with an inflated Client ID length, could cause the ovn-controller to read beyond the bounds of a packet. This out-of-bounds read can lead to the disclosure of sensitive information stored in heap memory, which is then returned to the attacker's virtual machine port.
What the metrics mean
- It is reachable over a network, without needing local access.
- For an attacker who can reach it, no special conditions are needed to exploit it.
- To exploit it, no account is needed.
- Beyond that, no action by a user is required.
