Abstract:
It is common operator practice to mitigate security risks by
enforcing appropriate packet filtering. This document analyzes both
the general security implications of IPv6 Extension Headers and the
specific security implications of each Extension Header and Option
type. Additionally, it discusses the operational and
interoperability implications of discarding packets based on the IPv6
Extension Headers and IPv6 options they contain. Finally, it
provides advice on the filtering of such IPv6 packets at transit
routers for traffic *not* directed to them, for those cases in which
such filtering is deemed as necessary.
Please note that it may take a couple of minutes from the time of submission
until the htmlized version and diff are available at tools.ietf.org.
