>Description:
I'm writing an IGMP test-tool in Scapy/Python and keep hitting this bug.
Whenever I send too many IGMPv2 joins out an interface the kernel crashes. I can recreate this easily every time on FreeBSD. I'm running FreeBSD in VirtualBox 4.1.12 r77245. I am also running Debian in VirtualBox with essentially the same setup and it doesn't crash.
Script to recreate as well as kernel dumps at http://www.depht.com/temp/igmpCrash.tgz
>How-To-Repeat:
Install Python/Scapy and run the script igmpCrash.py. You'll need igmp.py from the contrib section of Scapy.
I installed both Python and Scapy from ports.
