Real — exploited in the wild
CISA confirms active exploitation. Treat scanner hits as true positives unless your specific version or config is unaffected.
Based on CISA KEV
Confirm or dispute →CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
The Service Location Protocol (SLP, RFC 2608) allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to register arbitrary services. This could allow the attacker to use spoofed UDP traffic to conduct a denial-of-service attack with a significant amplification factor.

Service Location Protocol (SLP) Denial-of-Service Vulnerability — The Service Location Protocol (SLP) contains a denial-of-service (DoS) vulnerability that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to register services and use spoofed UDP traffic to conduct a denial-of-service (DoS) attack with a significant amplification factor. Listed in the CISA KEV catalog (added 2023-11-08) — confirmed exploited in the wild, not theoretical. FIRST EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at ~64%. Treat it as real and prioritize remediation over triage.
- 0
Required action for IETF Service Location Protocol (SLP): Apply mitigations per vendor instructions or disable SLP service or port 427/UDP on all systems running on untrusted networks, including those directly connected to the Internet. CISA set a federal remediation due date of 2023-11-29. After patching, verify the vulnerable path is no longer reachable before closing the finding.
