Subject: [PATCH] netfilter6 ip6_packet_match doesn't properly skip exthdrs
Date: Thu, 30 Sep 2004 14:14:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040930121408.GG19083@suse.de> (raw)
This patch fixes a bug in the ip6_tables code that tries to skip extension
headers. Packets with extension headers were usually not matched because
the code was looking at the wrong offset inside the skb.
