Hello,
any particular reason why this fix
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=79dc7e3f1cd323be4c81aa1a94faa1b3ed987fb2
was missed from stable 4.8 line? Apparently the bug being fixed has its
own https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2016-9919
The patch is marked as:
Fixes: 5d41ce29e ("net: icmp6_send should use dst dev to determine L3
domain")
and that is only in 4.9. So there seems to be a little point backporting
to older kernels.
