The remote host is missing an update for the 'linux' package(s) announced via the USN-1660-1 advisory. Zhang Zuotao discovered a bug in the Linux kernel's handling of overlapping fragments in ipv6. A remote attacker could exploit this flaw to bypass firewalls and initial new network connections that should have been blocked by the firewall
