[OpenIndiana-discuss] [HEADS UP] 10472 illumos-gate issue (possible DoS)

[Alexander Pyhalov]

An issue recently fixed in illumos-gate could allow malicious user from inside zone make zone halt time annoyingly long  by overloading interface with multiple multicast nighbor cache entries  ( https://www.illumos.org/issues/10472 ). 

Users having untrusted zones  are advised to update to the latest OpenIndiana version.
Fix is already present in your system if you have osnet-incorporation at 0.5.11-2018.0.0.18067 or later.
