A fix was pushed into the master branch but not yet published.
Overview
Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Uncontrolled Recursion through the tcpip_ipv6_output function in the os/net/ipv6/tcpip.c module. An attacker can cause a stack overflow by sending IPv6 packets with a next-hop address that is a local address.
Note: This is only exploitable if the attacker has the capability to send IPv6 packets directly to the host.
