What is CVE-2025-20191?

A vulnerability in the Switch Integrated Security Features (SISF) within multiple Cisco products allows an unauthenticated adjacent attacker to create a denial of service condition. This issue arises from improper handling of DHCPv6 packets, enabling the attacker to send specially crafted packets to the device, potentially leading to its reload and unavailability. This can disrupt services and impact network stability, highlighting the importance of applying security updates and mitigation measures.
