ONOS LLDP Packet Vulnerability Leading to Private Key Exposure

A vulnerability in the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) packets used in ONOS version 2.7.0 allows attackers to obtain private keys through a brute-force attack. Exploitation of this vulnerability involves creating and sending crafted LLDP packets.

Impact

Successful exploitation allows attackers to retrieve private keys, which could potentially be used to compromise cryptographic operations or authentication mechanisms.
