What is CVE-2012-3955?

The ISC DHCP software prior to v4.1-ESV-R7 and v4.2.4-P2 is vulnerable to a denial of service attack. Under certain circumstances, a malicious remote attacker can exploit this vulnerability by manipulating the lease expiration time of an IPv6 lease, leading to the crash of the DHCP daemon. This can disrupt network services reliant on DHCP, posing significant operational challenges for affected systems.
