** Description changed: - [IPv6 connect causes a denial of service] + The networking implementation in the Linux kernel through 4.3.3, as used + in Android and other products, does not validate protocol identifiers + for certain protocol families, which allows local users to cause a + denial of service (NULL function pointer dereference and system crash) + or possibly gain privileges by leveraging CLONE_NEWUSER support to + execute a crafted SOCK_RAW application.
