Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions

Description
The issue is caused by improper handling of crafted LLDP packets, which can lead to a denial of service condition. An unauthenticated, adjacent attacker could exploit this by sending a specially crafted LLDP packet to cause the affected device to crash.

As a temporary workaround, consider restricting the processing of LLDP packets to minimize the risk of exploitation.
