CVE-2026-53920 is a high-severity information disclosure vulnerability in OpenWrt's odhcpd DHCPv6 service. The flaw is triggered when odhcpd processes a truncated DHCPv6 IA_NA or IA_PD option, leading to disclosure of stack memory. The issue affects the DHCPv6 Identity Association handling path in a default-enabled core network service and is reachable by a network-adjacent attacker able to send crafted DHCPv6 traffic to the target device.
