Descriptions

The rt6_fill_node function in net/ipv6/route.c in Linux kernel 2.6.26-rc4, 2.6.26.2, and possibly other 2.6.26 versions, allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel OOPS) via IPv6 requests when no IPv6 input device is in use, which triggers a NULL pointer dereference.

La función rt6_fill_node en el archivo net/ipv6/route.c en el kernel de Linux versiones 2.6.26-rc4, 2.6.26.2, y posiblemente otras versiones 2.6.26, permite a los usuarios locales causar una denegación de servicio (OOPS del kernel) por medio de peticiones IPv6 cuando no está en uso un dispositivo de entrada IPv6, lo que desencadena una desreferencia del puntero NULL.
