Descriptions

The icmp6_send function in net/ipv6/icmp.c in the Linux kernel through 4.8.12 omits a certain check of the dst data structure, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) via a fragmented IPv6 packet.

La función icmp6_send en net/ipv6/icmp.c en el kernel de Linux hasta la versión 4.8.12 omite una cierta comprobación de la estructura de datos dst, lo que permite a atacantes remotos provocar una denegación de servicio (pánico) a través de un paquete IPv6 fragmentado.
