Description
IPv6.extract_paddinglooks for a Jumbo option in the Hop-by-Hop header withwhile offset <= len(data). When no Jumbo option is found andlen(data)equals an offset visited by the loop,data[offset]raisesIndexError. When an0xc2type byte is found with fewer than 6 bytes remaining,struct.unpackraisesstruct.error.scapy/scapy/layers/inet6.py
Lines 366 to 370 in 7daa15d
The loop now requires 6 bytes (type, length, 4-byte value) to remain. A regression test is added to
test/scapy/layers/inet6.uts.
