An unauthenticated, network-based attacker can exploit this by sending specific DHCP packets when pseudo-VTEP is configured in an EVPN-VXLAN scenario, leading to a memory leak. This continuous memory leak can eventually cause protocols to stop working and traffic disruption, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS) condition. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 7.5 (HIGH), indicating a severe impact on availability with no user interaction required. There is currently no evidence of active exploitation, public exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this CVE.
