What to do

AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, limit exposure of network interfaces that support IPv6-in-IPv4 tunneling and monitor network configurations to reduce attack surface.

Description

CVE-2025-23019 is a vulnerability in IPv6-in-IPv4 tunneling as specified by RFC 4213 that allows an attacker to spoof and route traffic through an exposed network interface. The flaw could enable an attacker to manipulate network traffic by exploiting the tunneling mechanism.
