Researchers release tool to pickup the SLAAC in Man-In-The-Middle attacks using IPv6

A group of researchers from Neohapsis Labs released a tool last weekend that drops the time needed for a Man-in-the-Middle attack using IPv6 (SLAAC) Attack was initially described in 2011, in RFC 6104, and was mostly found on wireless environments, but wired networks had issues too. The tool works on Windows Vista and Windows 7, out of the box, but Windows XP is exempt due to its lack of IPv6 support. The most extreme way to mitigate the attack is to disable IPv6 on client machines.”]
