This high-severity CVE scores 8.1 under NVD CVSS v3. EPSS exploit probability: 0.0%, top 96% of all CVEs by exploit prediction. GitHub Security Advisory data not yet ingested — confidence will rise once GHSA publishes (typical lag: hours to days for open-source ecosystem CVEs; never for infrastructure-only CVEs).
No vendor fix yet — apply a workaround or compensating control (WAF / firewall / segmentation) and watch for a patch.
Integer underflow in the DHCPv6 sub-option parser in FreeRTOS-Plus-TCP before V4.4.1 and V4.2.6 allows an adjacent network actor to corrupt the device's IPv6 address assignment, DNS configuration, and lease times, and to cause a denial of service (permanent IP task freeze requiring hardware reset) by sending a single crafted DHCPv6 packet.
The issue is present whenever DHCPv6 is enabled.
To mitigate this issue, users should upgrade to version V4.2.6 or V4.4.1 or newer.
