What it is

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

sit: do not call ipip6_dev_free() from sit_init_net()

ipip6_dev_free is sit dev->priv_destructor, already called

by register_netdevice() if something goes wrong.

Alternative would be to make ipip6_dev_free() robust against

multiple invocations, but other drivers do not implement this

strategy.
