ipv6: assign rt6_info to inet6_ifaddr in init_loopback

2013-06-27T17:39:03Z

[ Upstream commit 534c877928a16ae5f9776436a497109639bf67dc ] Commit 25fb6ca4ed9cad72f14f61629b68dc03c0d9713f "net IPv6 : Fix broken IPv6 routing table after loopback down-up" forgot to assign rt6_info to the inet6_ifaddr. When disable the net device, the rt6_info which allocated in init_loopback will not be destroied in __ipv6_ifa_notify. This will trigger the waring message below [23527.916091] unregister_netdevice: waiting for tap0 to become free.

udp6: Fix udp fragmentation for tunnel traffic.

2013-06-27T17:39:02Z

[ Upstream commit 1e2bd517c108816220f262d7954b697af03b5f9c ] udp6 over GRE tunnel does not work after to GRE tso changes. GRE tso handler passes inner packet but keeps track of outer header start in SKB_GSO_CB(skb)->mac_offset. udp6 fragment need to take care of outer header, which start at the mac_offset, while adding fragment header. This bug is introduced by commit 68c3316311 (GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE). Reported-by: Dmitry Kravkov Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Tested-by: Dmitry Kravkov Signed-off-by: David S.

ipv6: fix possible crashes in ip6_cork_release()

2013-06-27T17:38:47Z

[ Upstream commit 284041ef21fdf2e0d216ab6b787bc9072b4eb58a ] commit 0178b695fd6b4 ("ipv6: Copy cork options in ip6_append_data") added some code duplication and bad error recovery, leading to potential crash in ip6_cork_release() as kfree() could be called with garbage. use kzalloc() to make sure this wont happen.

ipv6,gre: do not leak info to user-space

[ Upstream commit 5dbd5068430b8bd1c19387d46d6c1a88b261257f ] There is a hole in struct ip6_tnl_parm2, so we have to zero the struct on stack before copying it to user-space. Cc: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Cong Wang Signed-off-by: David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

ipv6: do not clear pinet6 field

2013-05-19T18:38:38Z

[ Upstream commit f77d602124d865c38705df7fa25c03de9c284ad2 ] We have seen multiple NULL dereferences in __inet6_lookup_established() After analysis, I found that inet6_sk() could be NULL while the check for sk_family == AF_INET6 was true. Bug was added in linux-2.6.29 when RCU lookups were introduced in UDP and TCP stacks. Once an IPv6 socket, using SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU is inserted in a hash table, we no longer can clear pinet6 field. This patch extends logic used in commit fcbdf09d9652c891 ("net: fix nulls list corruptions in sk_prot_alloc") TCP/UDP/UDPLite IPv6 protocols provide their own .clear_sk() method to make sure we do not clear pinet6 field. At socket clone phase, we do not really care, as cloning the parent (non NULL) pinet6 is not adding a fatal race. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.

netfilter: xt_rpfilter: skip locally generated broadcast/multicast, too

2013-04-18T22:11:59Z

Alex Efros reported rpfilter module doesn't match following packets: IN=br.qemu SRC=192.168.2.1 DST=192.168.2.255 [ .. ] (netfilter bugzilla #814). Problem is that network stack arranges for the locally generated broadcasts to appear on the interface they were sent out, so the IFF_LOOPBACK check doesn't trigger. As -m rpfilter is restricted to PREROUTING, we can check for existing rtable instead, it catches locally-generated broad/multicast case, too.

net: drop dst before queueing fragments

2013-04-17T05:15:29Z

Commit 4a94445c9a5c (net: Use ip_route_input_noref() in input path) added a bug in IP defragmentation handling, as non refcounted dst could escape an RCU protected section. Commit 64f3b9e203bd068 (net: ip_expire() must revalidate route) fixed the case of timeouts, but not the general problem. Tom Parkin noticed crashes in UDP stack and provided a patch, but further analysis permitted us to pinpoint the root cause. Before queueing a packet into a frag list, we must drop its dst, as this dst has limited lifetime (RCU protected) When/if a packet is finally reassembled, we use the dst of the very last skb, still protected by RCU and valid, as the dst of the reassembled packet. Use same logic in IPv6, as there is no need to hold dst references. Reported-by: Tom Parkin Tested-by: Tom Parkin Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
