CVE-2011-2699
The IPv6 implementation in the Linux kernel before 3.1 does not generate Fragment Identification values separately for each destination, which makes it easier for remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disrupted networking) by predicting these values and sending crafted packets.

| linux / linux_kernel | - | 3.1 |
| redhat / enterprise_linux | 4.0 | 4.0.x |
