Hi there,
I found a memory corruption vulnerabiliry in Linux kernel through 4.6.2, and I have a working exploit to escalade 
privileges which requires the ip6_tables module to be loaded, that it is properly blocked on all up-to-date versions.
Due to the number of users running vulnerable code(not update to 4.7 or higher), and that this exploit is only 
available to security researchers and kernel packagers upon request but that I don't want it to spread.

I have reported this issue to Linux kernel official and they have already fixed this.
And I would like to request CVE-ID for this issue.


This was already disclosed here and CVEs were assigned AFAICT:
