This is a note to let you know that I have just added a patch titled ipv6: don't set DST_NOCOUNT for remotely added routes to the linux-3.8.y-queue branch of the 3.8.y.z extended stable tree which can be found at: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/linux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/linux-3.8.y-queue This patch is scheduled to be released in version 3.8.13.22. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to this tree, please reply to this email. For more information about the 3.8.y.z tree, see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable Thanks. -Kamal ------ From cce61c3c6762f5945e3c9edb71e11c86e404eac2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@queasysnail.net> Date: Thu, 6 Mar 2014 17:51:57 +0100 Subject: ipv6: don't set DST_NOCOUNT for remotely added routes [ Upstream commit c88507fbad8055297c1d1e21e599f46960cbee39 ] DST_NOCOUNT should only be used if an authorized user adds routes locally. In case of routes which are added on behalf of router advertisments this flag must not get used as it allows an unlimited number of routes getting added remotely.
