** Description changed:

- panic while appending data to a corked IPv6 socket in
- ip6_append_data_mtu
+ The ip6_append_data_mtu function in net/ipv6/ip6_output.c in the IPv6
+ implementation in the Linux kernel through 3.10.3 does not properly
+ maintain information about whether the IPV6_MTU setsockopt option had
+ been specified, which allows local users to cause a denial of service
+ (BUG and system crash) via a crafted application that uses the UDP_CORK
+ option in a setsockopt system call.
