No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.

LuCI versions fail to properly encode DHCPv6 lease hostnames before rendering in status tables, allowing adjacent network attackers to inject HTML markup. Attackers can send a DHCPv6 Client FQDN containing script tags that execute in the administrator's browser when viewing DHCP lease pages.
