Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== The following batch contains Netfilter fixes for 3.8-rc1. They are a mixture of old bugs that have passed unnoticed (I'll pass these to stable) and more fresh ones from the previous merge window, they are: * Fix for MAC address in 6in4 tunnels via NFLOG that results in ulogd showing up wrong address, from Bob Hockney. * Fix a comment in nf_conntrack_ipv6, from Florent Fourcot. * Fix a leak an error path in ctnetlink while creating an expectation, from Jesper Juhl. * Fix missing ICMP time exceeded in the IPv6 defragmentation code, from Haibo Xi. * Fix inconsistent handling of routing changes in MASQUERADE for the new connections case, from Andrew Collins. * Fix a missing skb_reset_transport in ip[6]t_REJECT that leads to crashes in the ixgbe driver (since it seems to access the transport header with TSO enabled), from Mukund Jampala. * Recover obsoleted NOTRACK target by including it into the CT and spot a warning via printk about being obsoleted. Many people don't check the scheduled to be removal file under Documentation, so we follow some less agressive approach to kill this in a year or so. Spotted by Florian Westphal, patch from myself. * Fix race condition in xt_hashlimit that allows to create two or more entries, from myself. * Fix crash if the CT is used due to the recently added facilities to consult the dying and unconfirmed conntrack lists, from myself. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-12-26ipv4/ip_gre: set transport header correctly to gre headerIsaku Yamahata1-1/+1
ipgre_tunnel_xmit() incorrectly sets transport header to inner payload instead of GRE header. It seems copy-and-pasted from ipip.c. So set transport header to gre header. (In ipip case the transport header is the inner ip header, so that's correct.) Found by inspection. In practice the incorrect transport header doesn't matter because the skb usually is sent to another net_device or socket, so the transport header isn't referenced.

2012-12-26tcp: should drop incoming frames without ACK flag setEric Dumazet1-4/+10
In commit 96e0bf4b5193d (tcp: Discard segments that ack data not yet sent) John Dykstra enforced a check against ack sequences. In commit 354e4aa391ed5 (tcp: RFC 5961 5.2 Blind Data Injection Attack Mitigation) I added more safety tests. But we missed fact that these tests are not performed if ACK bit is not set. RFC 793 3.9 mandates TCP should drop a frame without ACK flag set. " fifth check the ACK field, if the ACK bit is off drop the segment and return" Not doing so permits an attacker to only guess an acceptable sequence number, evading stronger checks. Many thanks to Zhiyun Qian for bringing this issue to our attention.

Since (a0ecb85 netfilter: nf_nat: Handle routing changes in MASQUERADE target), the MASQUERADE target handles routing changes which affect the output interface of a connection, but only for ESTABLISHED connections. It is also possible for NEW connections which already have a conntrack entry to be affected by routing changes. This adds a check to drop entries in the NEW+conntrack state when the oif has changed.

2012-12-16netfilter: ip[6]t_REJECT: fix wrong transport header pointer in TCP resetMukund Jampala1-0/+1
The problem occurs when iptables constructs the tcp reset packet. It doesn't initialize the pointer to the tcp header within the skb. When the skb is passed to the ixgbe driver for transmit, the ixgbe driver attempts to access the tcp header and crashes. Currently, other drivers (such as our 1G e1000e or igb drivers) don't access the tcp header on transmit unless the TSO option is turned on. <1>BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000d <1>IP: [<d081621c>] ixgbe_xmit_frame_ring+0x8cc/0x2260 [ixgbe] <4>*pdpt = 0000000085e5d001 *pde = 0000000000000000 <0>Oops: 0000 [#1] SMP [...] <4>Pid: 0, comm: swapper Tainted: P 2.6.35.12 #1 Greencity/Thurley <4>EIP: 0060:[<d081621c>] EFLAGS: 00010246 CPU: 16 <4>EIP is at ixgbe_xmit_frame_ring+0x8cc/0x2260 [ixgbe] <4>EAX: c7628820 EBX: 00000007 ECX: 00000000 EDX: 00000000 <4>ESI: 00000008 EDI: c6882180 EBP: dfc6b000 ESP: ced95c48 <4> DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0000 SS: 0068 <0>Process swapper (pid: 0, ti=ced94000 task=ced73bd0 task.ti=ced94000) <0>Stack: <4> cbec7418 c779e0d8 c77cc888 c77cc8a8 0903010a 00000000 c77c0008 00000002 <4><0> cd4997c0 00000010 dfc6b000 00000000 d0d176c9 c77cc8d8 c6882180 cbec7318 <4><0> 00000004 00000004 cbec7230 cbec7110 00000000 cbec70c0 c779e000 00000002 <0>Call Trace: <4> [<d0d176c9>] ? 0xd0d176c9 <4> [<d0d18a4d>] ? 0xd0d18a4d <4> [<411e243e>] ? dev_hard_start_xmit+0x218/0x2d7 <4> [<411f03d7>] ? sch_direct_xmit+0x4b/0x114 <4> [<411f056a>] ? __qdisc_run+0xca/0xe0 <4> [<411e28b0>] ? dev_queue_xmit+0x2d1/0x3d0 <4> [<411e8120>] ? neigh_resolve_output+0x1c5/0x20f <4> [<411e94a1>] ? neigh_update+0x29c/0x330 <4> [<4121cf29>] ? arp_process+0x49c/0x4cd <4> [<411f80c9>] ? nf_hook_slow+0x3f/0xac <4> [<4121ca8d>] ? arp_process+0x0/0x4cd <4> [<4121ca8d>] ? arp_process+0x0/0x4cd <4> [<4121c6d5>] ?

Additionally, things like xfrm, memcg, cookie_values,... may have been initialized. We have to free them properly. This is fixed by forcing a call to tcp_done(), ending up in inet_csk_destroy_sock, doing the final sock_put(). tcp_done() is necessary, because it ends up doing all the cleanup on xfrm, memcg, cookie_values, xfrm,... Before calling tcp_done, we have to set the socket to SOCK_DEAD, to force it entering inet_csk_destroy_sock. To avoid the warning in inet_csk_destroy_sock, inet_num has to be set to 0. As inet_csk_destroy_sock does a dec on orphan_count, we first have to increase it. Calling tcp_done() allows us to remove the calls to tcp_clear_xmit_timer() and tcp_cleanup_congestion_control(). A similar approach is taken for dccp by calling dccp_done(). This is in the kernel since 093d282321 (tproxy: fix hash locking issue when using port redirection in __inet_inherit_port()), thus since version >= 2.6.37.

ip_check_defrag() might be called from af_packet within the RX path where shared SKBs are used, so it must not modify the input SKB before it has unshared it for defragmentation. Use skb_copy_bits() to get the IP header and only pull in everything later. The same is true for the other caller in macvlan as it is called from dev->rx_handler which can also get a shared SKB.

2012-12-09inet_diag: validate port comparison byte code to prevent unsafe readsNeal Cardwell1-7/+24
Add logic to verify that a port comparison byte code operation actually has the second inet_diag_bc_op from which we read the port for such operations. Previously the code blindly referenced op[1] without first checking whether a second inet_diag_bc_op struct could fit there. So a malicious user could make the kernel read 4 bytes beyond the end of the bytecode array by claiming to have a whole port comparison byte code (2 inet_diag_bc_op structs) when in fact the bytecode was not long enough to hold both.

2012-12-09inet_diag: avoid unsafe and nonsensical prefix matches in inet_diag_bc_run()Neal Cardwell1-11/+17
Add logic to check the address family of the user-supplied conditional and the address family of the connection entry. We now do not do prefix matching of addresses from different address families (AF_INET vs AF_INET6), except for the previously existing support for having an IPv4 prefix match an IPv4-mapped IPv6 address (which this commit maintains as-is). This change is needed for two reasons: (1) The addresses are different lengths, so comparing a 128-bit IPv6 prefix match condition to a 32-bit IPv4 connection address can cause us to unwittingly walk off the end of the IPv4 address and read garbage or oops. (2) The IPv4 and IPv6 address spaces are semantically distinct, so a simple bit-wise comparison of the prefixes is not meaningful, and would lead to bogus results (except for the IPv4-mapped IPv6 case, which this commit maintains).

Add logic to validate INET_DIAG_BC_S_COND and INET_DIAG_BC_D_COND operations. Previously we did not validate the inet_diag_hostcond, address family, address length, and prefix length. So a malicious user could make the kernel read beyond the end of the bytecode array by claiming to have a whole inet_diag_hostcond when the bytecode was not long enough to contain a whole inet_diag_hostcond of the given address family. Or they could make the kernel read up to about 27 bytes beyond the end of a connection address by passing a prefix length that exceeded the length of addresses of the given family.

2012-12-09inet_diag: fix oops for IPv4 AF_INET6 TCP SYN-RECV stateNeal Cardwell1-14/+39
Fix inet_diag to be aware of the fact that AF_INET6 TCP connections instantiated for IPv4 traffic and in the SYN-RECV state were actually created with inet_reqsk_alloc(), instead of inet6_reqsk_alloc(). This means that for such connections inet6_rsk(req) returns a pointer to a random spot in memory up to roughly 64KB beyond the end of the request_sock. With this bug, for a server using AF_INET6 TCP sockets and serving IPv4 traffic, an inet_diag user like `ss state SYN-RECV` would lead to inet_diag_fill_req() causing an oops or the export to user space of 16 bytes of kernel memory as a garbage IPv6 address, depending on where the garbage inet6_rsk(req) pointed.

2012-12-07tcp: bug fix Fast Open client retransmissionYuchung Cheng2-6/+15
If SYN-ACK partially acks SYN-data, the client retransmits the remaining data by tcp_retransmit_skb(). This increments lost recovery state variables like tp->retrans_out in Open state. If loss recovery happens before the retransmission is acked, it triggers the WARN_ON check in tcp_fastretrans_alert(). For example: the client sends SYN-data, gets SYN-ACK acking only ISN, retransmits data, sends another 4 data packets and get 3 dupacks. Since the retransmission is not caused by network drop it should not update the recovery state variables. Further the server may return a smaller MSS than the cached MSS used for SYN-data, so the retranmission needs a loop. Otherwise some data will not be retransmitted until timeout or other loss recovery events.

2012-12-02tcp: don't abort splice() after small transfersWilly Tarreau1-4/+8
TCP coalescing added a regression in splice(socket->pipe) performance, for some workloads because of the way tcp_read_sock() is implemented. The reason for this is the break when (offset + 1 != skb->len). As we released the socket lock, this condition is possible if TCP stack added a fragment to the skb, which can happen with TCP coalescing. So let's go back to the beginning of the loop when this happens, to give a chance to splice more frags per system call. Doing so fixes the issue and makes GRO 10% faster than LRO on CPU-bound splice() workloads instead of the opposite.

2012-11-30net: move inet_dport/inet_num in sock_commonEric Dumazet1-13/+23
commit 68835aba4d9b (net: optimize INET input path further) moved some fields used for tcp/udp sockets lookup in the first cache line of struct sock_common. This patch moves inet_dport/inet_num as well, filling a 32bit hole on 64 bit arches and reducing number of cache line misses in lookups. Also change INET_MATCH()/INET_TW_MATCH() to perform the ports match before addresses match, as this check is more discriminant. Remove the hash check from MATCH() macros because we dont need to re validate the hash value after taking a refcount on socket, and use likely/unlikely compiler hints, as the sk_hash/hash check makes the following conditional tests 100% predicted by cpu. Introduce skc_addrpair/skc_portpair pair values to better document the alignment requirements of the port/addr pairs used in the various MATCH() macros, and remove some casts. The namespace check can also be done at last. This slightly improves TCP/UDP lookup times. IP/TCP early demux needs inet->rx_dst_ifindex and TCP needs inet->min_ttl, lets group them together in same cache line. With help from Ben Hutchings & Joe Perches. Idea of this patch came after Ling Ma proposal to move skc_hash to the beginning of struct sock_common, and should allow him to submit a final version of his patch. My tests show an improvement doing so.

2012-11-22ipv4: do not cache looped multicastsJulian Anastasov1-2/+5
Starting from 3.6 we cache output routes for multicasts only when using route to 224/4. For local receivers we can set RTCF_LOCAL flag depending on the membership but in such case we use maddr and saddr which are not caching keys as before. Additionally, we can not use same place to cache routes that differ in RTCF_LOCAL flag value. Fix it by caching only RTCF_MULTICAST entries without RTCF_LOCAL (send-only, no loopback). As a side effect, we avoid unneeded lookup for fnhe when not caching because multicasts are not redirected and they do not learn PMTU. Thanks to Maxime Bizon for showing the caching problems in __mkroute_output for 3.6 kernels: different RTCF_LOCAL flag in cache can lead to wrong ip_mc_output or ip_output call and the visible problem is that traffic can not reach local receivers via loopback.
