IMHO you do not need "active" IPv6. Most LANs (unless you have some switch-level filtering that blocks router advertisements from "unauthorized" nodes) can transport such IPv6 packets. Then it just takes being connected to the LAN and being able to send an arbitrary ICMP6 packet (which probably means being root on the attacker machine, not a very high barrier I'd say).
