Resolution ========== Upgrade to 1:4.8.12.r201612062306-2. # pacman -Syu "linux-grsec>=1:4.8.12.r201612062306-2" The problem has been fixed upstream but no release is available yet. Workaround ========== None. Description =========== 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. Impact ====== A remote attacker can cause a kernel panic by sending a fragmented IPv6 packet.
