------------------ From: Hagen Paul Pfeifer <[email protected]> [ Upstream commit 9d289715eb5c252ae15bd547cb252ca547a3c4f2 ] Reduce the attack vector and stop generating IPv6 Fragment Header for paths with an MTU smaller than the minimum required IPv6 MTU size (1280 byte) - called atomic fragments. See IETF I-D "Deprecating the Generation of IPv6 Atomic Fragments" [1] for more information and how this "feature" can be misused.
