Subject: ebtables: v2.0.10-1 wish for ipv6-icmp and security Package: ebtables Severity: wishlist
*** Please type your report below this line *** http://lwn.net/Articles/451189/ mentions for 2.0.10-1 release: * incorporate fixes for possible issues found by Coverity analysis (thanks to Jiri Popelka) * extend ebt_ip6 to allow matching on ipv6-icmp types/codes (by Florian Westphal) The first item is a fix which might have security implications and the second item would be really helpful when securing a debian system running virtual machines with IPv6 enabled, for example to prevent ICMPv6 spoofing. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
