A NULL pointer dereference flaw was discovered in the way the dhcpd daemon parsed DHCPv6 packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash dhcpd via a specially crafted DHCPv6 packet, if dhcpd was running as a DHCPv6 server. (CVE-2010-3611)

After installing this update, all DHCP servers will be restarted automatically.
