** Description changed:

- A bug was found in the way headroom check was performed in
- udp6_ufo_fragment() function. A remote attacker could use this flaw to
- crash the system.
+ The udp6_ufo_fragment function in net/ipv6/udp.c in the Linux kernel
+ before 2.6.39, when a certain UDP Fragmentation Offload (UFO)
+ configuration is enabled, allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
+ service (system crash) by sending fragmented IPv6 UDP packets to a
+ bridge device.
