Description:
A vulnerability has been reported in the KAME Project, which can be exploited by malicious people to cause a DoS (Denial of Service).
The vulnerability is caused due to an error within the "ipcomp6_input()" function in kame/sys/netinet6/ipcomp_input.c when processing IPv6 packets with an IPComp header. This can be exploited to crash a vulnerable system by sending a specially crafted IPv6 packet.
