SUNRPC: Fix a data corruption issue when retransmitting RPC calls

2013-11-29T18:50:36Z

commit a6b31d18b02ff9d7915c5898c9b5ca41a798cd73 upstream. The following scenario can cause silent data corruption when doing NFS writes. It has mainly been observed when doing database writes using O_DIRECT. 1) The RPC client uses sendpage() to do zero-copy of the page data. 2) Due to networking issues, the reply from the server is delayed, and so the RPC client times out. 3) The client issues a second sendpage of the page data as part of an RPC call retransmission. 4) The reply to the first transmission arrives from the server _before_ the client hardware has emptied the TCP socket send buffer. 5) After processing the reply, the RPC state machine rules that the call to be done, and triggers the completion callbacks. 6) The application notices the RPC call is done, and reuses the pages to store something else (e.g. a new write). 7) The client NIC drains the TCP socket send buffer. Since the page data has now changed, it reads a corrupted version of the initial RPC call, and puts it on the wire. This patch fixes the problem in the following manner: The ordering guarantees of TCP ensure that when the server sends a reply, then we know that the _first_ transmission has completed. Using zero-copy in that situation is therefore safe. If a time out occurs, we then send the retransmission using sendmsg() (i.e. no zero-copy), We then know that the socket contains a full copy of the data, and so it will retransmit a faithful reproduction even if the RPC call completes, and the application reuses the O_DIRECT buffer in the meantime.

SUNRPC: don't map EKEYEXPIRED to EACCES in call_refreshresult

2013-11-29T18:50:33Z

commit f1ff0c27fd9987c59d707cd1a6b6c1fc3ae0a250 upstream. The NFS layer needs to know when a key has expired. This change also returns -EKEYEXPIRED to the application, and the informative "Key has expired" error message is displayed. The user then knows that credential renewal is required.

SUNRPC handle EKEYEXPIRED in call_refreshresult

2013-11-29T18:50:32Z

commit eb96d5c97b0825d542e9c4ba5e0a22b519355166 upstream. Currently, when an RPCSEC_GSS context has expired or is non-existent and the users (Kerberos) credentials have also expired or are non-existent, the client receives the -EKEYEXPIRED error and tries to refresh the context forever. If an application is performing I/O, or other work against the share, the application hangs, and the user is not prompted to refresh/establish their credentials. This can result in a denial of service for other users. Users are expected to manage their Kerberos credential lifetimes to mitigate this issue. Move the -EKEYEXPIRED handling into the RPC layer. Try tk_cred_retry number of times to refresh the gss_context, and then return -EACCES to the application.

netfilter: nf_ct_sip: don't drop packets with offsets pointing outside the packet

2013-11-20T18:43:18Z

commit 3a7b21eaf4fb3c971bdb47a98f570550ddfe4471 upstream. Some Cisco phones create huge messages that are spread over multiple packets. After calculating the offset of the SIP body, it is validated to be within the packet and the packet is dropped otherwise. This breaks operation of these phones. Since connection tracking is supposed to be passive, just let those packets pass unmodified and untracked.

net: flow_dissector: fail on evil iph->ihl

2013-11-20T18:43:18Z

[ Upstream commit 6f092343855a71e03b8d209815d8c45bf3a27fcd ] We don't validate iph->ihl which may lead a dead loop if we meet a IPIP skb whose iph->ihl is zero. Fix this by failing immediately when iph->ihl is evil (less than 5). This issue were introduced by commit ec5efe7946280d1e84603389a1030ccec0a767ae (rps: support IPIP encapsulation).

mac80211: update sta->last_rx on acked tx frames

2013-11-13T03:01:48Z

commit 0c5b93290b2f3c7a376567c03ae8d385b0e99851 upstream. When clients are idle for too long, hostapd sends nullfunc frames for probing. When those are acked by the client, the idle time needs to be updated. To make this work (and to avoid unnecessary probing), update sta->last_rx whenever an ACK was received for a tx packet. Only do this if the flag IEEE80211_HW_REPORTS_TX_ACK_STATUS is set. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

mac80211: correctly close cancelled scans

2013-11-13T03:01:48Z

commit a754055a1296fcbe6f32de3a5eaca6efb2fd1865 upstream. __ieee80211_scan_completed is called from a worker. This means that the following flow is possible. * driver calls ieee80211_scan_completed * mac80211 cancels the scan (that is already complete) * __ieee80211_scan_completed runs When scan_work will finally run, it will see that the scan hasn't been aborted and might even trigger another scan on another band. This leads to a situation where cfg80211's scan is not done and no further scan can be issued. Fix this by setting a new flag when a HW scan is being cancelled so that no other scan will be triggered.

wireless: radiotap: fix parsing buffer overrun

2013-11-04T12:23:42Z

commit f5563318ff1bde15b10e736e97ffce13be08bc1a upstream. When parsing an invalid radiotap header, the parser can overrun the buffer that is passed in because it doesn't correctly check 1) the minimum radiotap header size 2) the space for extended bitmaps The first issue doesn't affect any in-kernel user as they all check the minimum size before calling the radiotap function. The second issue could potentially affect the kernel if an skb is passed in that consists only of the radiotap header with a lot of extended bitmaps that extend past the SKB. In that case a read-only buffer overrun by at most 4 bytes is possible. Fix this by adding the appropriate checks to the parser.

inet: fix possible memory corruption with UDP_CORK and UFO

2013-11-04T12:23:41Z

[ This is a simplified -stable version of a set of upstream commits. ] This is a replacement patch only for stable which does fix the problems handled by the following two commits in -net: "ip_output: do skb ufo init for peeked non ufo skb as well" (e93b7d748be887cd7639b113ba7d7ef792a7efb9) "ip6_output: do skb ufo init for peeked non ufo skb as well" (c547dbf55d5f8cf615ccc0e7265e98db27d3fb8b) Three frames are written on a corked udp socket for which the output netdevice has UFO enabled. If the first and third frame are smaller than the mtu and the second one is bigger, we enqueue the second frame with skb_append_datato_frags without initializing the gso fields. This leads to the third frame appended regulary and thus constructing an invalid skb. This fixes the problem by always using skb_append_datato_frags as soon as the first frag got enqueued to the skb without marking the packet as SKB_GSO_UDP. The problem with only two frames for ipv6 was fixed by "ipv6: udp packets following an UFO enqueued packet need also be handled by UFO" (2811ebac2521ceac84f2bdae402455baa6a7fb47).

net: unix: inherit SOCK_PASS{CRED, SEC} flags from socket to fix race

2013-11-04T12:23:41Z

[ Upstream commit 90c6bd34f884cd9cee21f1d152baf6c18bcac949 ] In the case of credentials passing in unix stream sockets (dgram sockets seem not affected), we get a rather sparse race after commit 16e5726 ("af_unix: dont send SCM_CREDENTIALS by default"). We have a stream server on receiver side that requests credential passing from senders (e.g. nc -U). Since we need to set SO_PASSCRED on each spawned/accepted socket on server side to 1 first (as it's not inherited), it can happen that in the time between accept() and setsockopt() we get interrupted, the sender is being scheduled and continues with passing data to our receiver. At that time SO_PASSCRED is neither set on sender nor receiver side, hence in cmsg's SCM_CREDENTIALS we get eventually pid:0, uid:65534, gid:65534 (== overflow{u,g}id) instead of what we actually would like to see. On the sender side, here nc -U, the tests in maybe_add_creds() invoked through unix_stream_sendmsg() would fail, as at that exact time, as mentioned, the sender has neither SO_PASSCRED on his side nor sees it on the server side, and we have a valid 'other' socket in place. Thus, sender believes it would just look like a normal connection, not needing/requesting SO_PASSCRED at that time. As reverting 16e5726 would not be an option due to the significant performance regression reported when having creds always passed, one way/trade-off to prevent that would be to set SO_PASSCRED on the listener socket and allow inheriting these flags to the spawned socket on server side in accept(). It seems also logical to do so if we'd tell the listener socket to pass those flags onwards, and would fix the race.
