Hello All.
I found a bug in linux kernel 2.6.7.
On sending the fragmented IPv6 packet, it causes the kernel panic.
The patch to kernel2.6.7 is as follows.
--- linux-2.6.7/net/ipv6/ip6_output.c 2004-07-02 16:22:49.615797744 -0400
+++ linux-2.6.7/net/ipv6/ip6_output.c 2004-07-02 16:23:27.123095768 -0400
@@ -607,7 +607,7 @@
frag->nh.ipv6h->payload_len = htons(frag->len - sizeof(struct ipv6hdr));
ip6_copy_metadata(frag, skb);
}
- err = output(pskb);
+ err = output(&skb);
if (err || !frag) {
if (unlikely(skb != *pskb))
skb = *pskb;
