In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfrejectipv6: fix potential crash in nfsendreset6()
I got a syzbot report without a repro [1] crashing in nfsendreset6()
I think the issue is that dev->hardheaderlen is zero, and we attempt later to push an Ethernet header.
Use LLMAXHEADER, as other functions in net/ipv6/netfilter/nfrejectipv6.c.
