SOLVED:

I've had a manual Outbound NAT Rule:

Interface Source Source Port Destination Destination Port NAT Address NAT Port Static Port
WAN any * ! Private_Networks  * WAN address * YES

That Rule made no Problems until 24.7.10, with and after that Release Errors started "dhcp6c   transmit failed: Permission denied"

Jesus Christ....

The Reason for that Rule was (in my Imagination) that I wanted in outbound NAT static Ports for IPv4 because opnsense otherwise randomly addresses ports. That caused Problems on at least one Multiplayer game because they seem to pick the clients outgoing port and put in the payload, telling the other side that port. But opnsense you choose another outgoing port so the other side failed.

In my great Wiseness when adding the IPv4 NAT Rule I also copied it for IPv6 for future purpose, not knowing that this could cause problems 6 years later.
