Summary

FreeBSD from 15.1-RELEASE before 15.1-RELEASE-p4, from 15.0-RELEASE before 15.0-RELEASE-p14, from 14.5-RELEASE before 14.5-RELEASE-p1, and from 14.4-RELEASE before 14.4-RELEASE-p10 has an incorrectly specified destination flaw (CWE-941) in the IPv6 UDP send path for unconnected sockets. The kernel skips the jail policy that rewrites a loopback destination to the jail's primary IPv6 address. A process in a classic non-VNET jail can send UDP datagrams to services on the host's IPv6 loopback address, bypassing jail network isolation. The CVSS 3.1 vector (AV:N/PR:N) rates the impact as high integrity loss only.

Description from the CNA

The IPv6 UDP send path for unconnected sockets did not apply the jail policy of rewriting a loopback destination address to the jail's primary IPv6 address. A process in a classic (non-VNET) jail can send UDP datagrams to services listening on the host's IPv6 loopback address, bypassing jail network isolation.
