The app_tcp_pkt_out() function expects "*diff" to be set and ends up using uninitialized data if CONFIG_IP_VS_IPV6 is turned on. The same issue is there in app_tcp_pkt_in(). Thanks to Julian Anastasov for noticing that. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> --- v2: fix app_tcp_pkt_in() as well.
