Severity
Summary
The pf_test_rule function in OpenBSD Packet Filter (PF), as used in OpenBSD 4.2 through 4.5, NetBSD 5.0 before RC3, MirOS 10 and earlier, and MidnightBSD 0.3-current allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via crafted IP packets that trigger a NULL pointer dereference during translation, related to an IPv4 packet with an ICMPv6 payload.

Related by attack behaviour

Vulnerabilities whose description is nearest to this one in the vector space of the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-biencoder model. This is a similarity search over the bi-encoder space (plain cosine), not a classification, and it has no measured accuracy.
