Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

netfilter: nf_reject_ipv6: fix nf_reject_ip6_tcphdr_put()

syzbot reported that nf_reject_ip6_tcphdr_put() was possibly sending garbage on the four reserved tcp bits (th->res1)

Use skb_put_zero() to clear the whole TCP header, as done in nf_reject_ip_tcphdr_put()
