Linux happened to process invalid ND messages with invalid options such as - length of ND options is 0 - length of ND options is not enough Specification says that such messages must be silently discarded. This patch parses/checks ND options before it changes state of neighbour / address etc. and ignores such messages.
Following patch is against linux-2.4.19.
Patch applied to 2.4.x and 2.5.x, thanks a lot.
Let us hope more patches like this one are coming :-) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
