Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.39%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

A flaw was found in Open vSwitch that allows ICMPv6 Neighbor Advertisement packets between virtual machines to bypass OpenFlow rules. This issue may allow a local attacker to create specially crafted packets with a modified or spoofed target IP address field that can redirect ICMPv6 traffic to arbitrary IP addresses.
