Netbsd : Security Vulnerabilities, CVEs, Published In 2008 CVSS score >= 8

NetBSD 3.0, 3.1, and 4.0, when a pppoe instance exists, does not properly check the length of a PPPoE packet tag, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (system crash) via a crafted PPPoE packet.

The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) implementation in (1) FreeBSD 6.3 through 7.1, (2) OpenBSD 4.2 and 4.3, (3) NetBSD, (4) Force10 FTOS before E7.7.1.1, (5) Juniper JUNOS, and (6) Wind River VxWorks 5.x through 6.4 does not validate the origin of Neighbor Discovery messages, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of connectivity) or read private network traffic via a spoofed message that modifies the Forward Information Base (FIB).

The ipsec4_get_ulp function in the kernel in NetBSD 2.0 through 3.1 and NetBSD-current before 20071028, when the fast_ipsec subsystem is enabled, allows remote attackers to bypass the IPsec policy by sending packets from a source machine with a different endianness than the destination machine, a different vulnerability than CVE-2006-0905.
