Just spotted the new advisory from CORE: http://www.securityfocus.com/archive/1/462728/30/0/threaded Not an expert, but FreeBSD's src/sys/kern/uipc_mbuf2.c has the very simular code.

I really hope that we're not affected, especially since we didn't get any advance notice of this; but I've asked several of our IPv6 / network stack experts to investigate this.

After hearing from a KAME developers who investigated this issue, I'm satisfied that FreeBSD is not affected.
