CVE-2017-2634

CVE-2017-2634 affects the Linux kernel DCCP implementation prior to 2.6.22.17, where the IPv4-only inet_sk_rebuild_header() function was used for both IPv4 and IPv6 DCCP connections. This can result in memory corruptions and allows a remote attacker to crash the system. Connected advisories confi...

Debian DLA-1422-2 : linux security update (Spectre)
