NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream dibbler package and not the dibbler package as distributed by Debian. See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.

The TSrvOptIA_NA::rebind method in SrvOptions/SrvOptIA_NA.cpp in Dibbler 0.6.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (NULL dereference and daemon crash) via an invalid IA_NA option in a REBIND message.
