** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Precise)
       Status: New => Fix Committed

** Description changed:

- Network-related panic
+ A certain Debian patch to the IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel
+ 3.2.x through 3.2.63 does not properly validate arguments in
+ ipv6_select_ident function calls, which allows local users to cause a
+ denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and system crash) by
+ leveraging (1) tun or (2) macvtap device access.
