The IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) implementation in HP HP-UX B.11.11, B.11.23, and B.11.31 does not validate the origin of Neighbor Discovery messages, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (loss of connectivity), read private network traffic, and possibly execute arbitrary code via a spoofed message that modifies the Forward Information Base (FIB), a related issue to CVE-2008-2476.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This vulnerability affects legacy HP-UX systems. A flaw in IPv6 Neighbor Discovery handling may let a remote attacker disrupt network connectivity, observe private traffic, or possibly execute code by sending spoofed network discovery messages. Exposure is most likely where affected HP-UX versions run with IPv6 enabled on network segments reachable by untrusted or compromised hosts. The source bundle provides no CPE detail and does not identify non-HP-UX products. Prioritize if legacy HP-UX remains in production, especially in sensitive network zones. The potential impact spans outage, traffic exposure, and possible code execution, but public evidence in the bundle does not show active exploitation. Mitigation focus: Identify HP-UX B.11.11, B.11.23, and B.11.31 systems.; Review HP advisory HPSBUX02407 for vendor-stated fixes or workarounds.; Reduce untrusted network adjacency to affected HP-UX IPv6 interfaces..
