[Secure-testing-team] CVE-2005-2973: Yet another kernel DoS

[Moritz Muehlenhoff]

Hi,
an infinite loop in udp_v6_get_port() can be triggered and thus result in
local DoS. Please see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=170772
for a link to a patch by davem. This is CVE-2005-2973.
There's also another link to a possible regression for a dst mem leak fix. Does this
apply to the Debian kernel as well?

Cheers,
        Moritz
