It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2017-6227 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Broadcom Fabric Operating System. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6227/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6227/index.md)","id":"CVE-2017-6227","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6227/index.md","name":"CVE-2017-6227","record":{"aliases":["GHSA-hm6f-vf78-gxhc"],"analysis":{"component_type":"network_device","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Fibre Channel SAN","requires_auth":"none","summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service by sending crafted Router Advertisement messages to Brocade Fibre Channel SAN products.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"brocade","cpe":[{"product":"fabric_operating_system","vendor":"broadcom"},{"product":"fabric_os","vendor":"brocade"}],"cvss":{"score":6.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[],"description":"A vulnerability in the IPv6 stack on Brocade Fibre Channel SAN products running Brocade Fabric OS (FOS) versions before 7.4.2b, 8.1.2 and 8.2.0 could allow an attacker to cause a denial of service (CPU consumption and device hang) condition by sending crafted Router Advertisement (RA) messages to a targeted system.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":null,"headline":"Denial of service in Brocade FABRIC OS","id":"CVE-2017-6227","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"broadcom:fabric_operating_system","products":["broadcom:fabric_operating_system"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2017"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":1,"next":{"headline":"Command injection in Ruckus Networks Unleashed APs and Zone Director","id":"CVE-2017-6229"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Brocade FABRIC OS","id":"CVE-2017-6225"},"products":["Brocade FABRIC OS"],"published":"2018-02-08","related":[{"cvss_score":8.6,"headline":"Broadcom Brocade Fabric OS Code Injection","id":"CVE-2025-1976","kev_date_added":"2025-04-28","published":"2025-04-24"},{"cvss_score":8.3,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2021-22555","kev_date_added":"2025-10-06","published":"2021-07-07"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Command injection in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2022-33186","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-12-08"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Hardcoded credentials in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2021-27797","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2022-02-21"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Code injection in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2020-15371","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2020-15373","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-25"},{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Cross-site scripting in Brocade Fabric OS","id":"CVE-2020-15374","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2020-09-25"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-09-16","vendors":["Brocade Communications Systems, Inc."]},"summary":"An attacker can cause a denial of service by sending crafted Router Advertisement messages to Brocade Fibre Channel SAN products.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2017-6227/"}
