3. Description:

Libndp is a library (used by NetworkManager) that provides a wrapper for
the IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol. It also provides a tool named ndptool
for sending and receiving NDP messages.

Security Fix(es):

* It was found that libndp did not properly validate and check the origin
of Neighbor Discovery Protocol (NDP) messages. An attacker on a non-local
network could use this flaw to advertise a node as a router, allowing them
to perform man-in-the-middle attacks on a connecting client, or disrupt the
network connectivity of that client. (CVE-2016-3698)

Red Hat would like to thank Julien Bernard (Viagénie) for reporting this
issue.

4. Solution:

For details on how to apply this update, which includes the changes
described in this advisory, refer to:

https://access.redhat.com/articles/11258

After installing this update, all running applications using libndp (for
example, Network Manager) must be restarted for this update to take effect.

5. Bugs fixed (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/):
