Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions 6tunnel versions 0.08 and earlier

Description The issue allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service, specifically resource exhaustion, by repeatedly connecting to and disconnecting from the server. This is due to the software not properly closing sockets initiated by a client.

Recommendations For 6tunnel versions 0.08 and earlier, consider updating to a version that properly closes sockets to prevent resource exhaustion. As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the server to minimize the risk of exploitation.
