Not Vulnerable:

Linux Kernel 'net/ipv6/output_core.c' Local Denial of Service Vulnerability

The Linux Kernel is prone to a local denial-of-service vulnerability.

A local attacker can exploit this issue to cause the application to cause an infinite loop; resulting in a denial-of-service condition.

Linux Kernel 4.12.3 and prior versions are vulnerable.
