Descriptions

In 11.4-PRERELEASE before r360733 and 11.3-RELEASE before p13, improper mbuf handling in the kernel causes a use-after-free bug by sending IPv6 Hop-by-Hop options over the loopback interface. The use-after-free situation may result in unintended kernel behaviour including a kernel panic.

En versiones 11.4-PRERELEASE anteriores a r360733 y 11.3-RELEASE anteriores a p13, el manejo inapropiado de mbuf en el kernel causa un error de uso de la memoria previamente liberada mediante el envío opciones IPv6 Hop-by-Hop por medio de la interfaz de loopback. La situación de uso de la memoria previamente liberada puede resultar en un comportamiento del kernel no deseado, incluyendo un pánico del kernel.
