2007-04-10APPLETALK: Fix a remotely triggerable crash (CVE-2007-1357)Jean Delvare
When we receive an AppleTalk frame shorter than what its header says, we still attempt to verify its checksum, and trip on the BUG_ON() at the end of function atalk_sum_skb() because of the length mismatch. This has security implications because this can be triggered by simply sending a specially crafted ethernet frame to a target victim, effectively crashing that host. Thus this qualifies, I think, as a remote DoS. Here is the frame I used to trigger the crash, in npg format: <Appletalk Killer> { # Ethernet header ----- XX XX XX XX XX XX # Destination MAC 00 00 00 00 00 00 # Source MAC 00 1D # Length # LLC header ----- AA AA 03 08 00 07 80 9B # Appletalk # Appletalk header ----- 00 1B # Packet length (invalid) 00 01 # Fake checksum 00 00 00 00 # Destination and source networks 00 00 00 00 # Destination and source nodes and ports # Payload ----- 0C 0D 0E 0F 10 11 12 13 14 } The destination MAC address must be set to those of the victim. The severity is mitigated by two requirements: * The target host must have the appletalk kernel module loaded. I suspect this isn't so frequent. * AppleTalk frames are non-IP, thus I guess they can only travel on local networks. I am no network expert though, maybe it is possible to somehow encapsulate AppleTalk packets over IP. The bug has been reported back in June 2004: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2979 But it wasn't investigated, and was closed in July 2006 as both reporters had vanished meanwhile. This code was new in kernel 2.6.0-test5: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tglx/history.git;a=commitdiff;h=7ab442d7e0a76402c12553ee256f756097cae2d2 And not modified since then, so we can assume that vanilla kernels 2.6.0-test5 and later, and distribution kernels based thereon, are affected. Note that I still do not know for sure what triggered the bug in the real-world cases. The frame could have been corrupted by the kernel if we have a bug hiding somewhere. But more likely, we are receiving the faulty frame from the network. Signed-off-by: Jean Delvare <jdelvare@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

2007-04-09hrtimer: prevent overrun DoS in hrtimer_forward()Thomas Gleixner
hrtimer_forward() does not check for the possible overflow of timer->expires. This can happen on 64 bit machines with large interval values and results currently in an endless loop in the softirq because the expiry value becomes negative and therefor the timer is expired all the time. Check for this condition and set the expiry value to the max. expiry time in the future. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

2007-04-09prevent timespec/timeval to ktime_t overflowThomas Gleixner
Frank v. Waveren pointed out that on 64bit machines the timespec to ktime_t conversion might overflow. This is also true for timeval to time_t conversions. This breaks a "sleep inf" on 64bit machines. While a timespec/timeval with tx.sec = MAX_LONG is valid by specification the internal representation of ktime_t is based on nanoseconds. The conversion of seconds to nanoseconds overflows for seconds values >= (MAX_LONG / NSEC_PER_SEC). Check the seconds argument to the conversion and limit it to the maximum time which can be represented by ktime_t.

2007-04-04ide-floppy: Fix unformatted media crashAlan Cox
A ZIP or similar with unformatted media will cause crashes when attempts are made to read/write it in some cases. This is because bs_factor is zero and we divide by it causing an oops. As the size of a non-accessible/non-existant media is really a bit of a zen question it doesn't matter if non-existant media is 512 bytes per sector or zero. Setting it to 1 causes us to generate 512 bytes/sector accesses and error properly.

2007-03-28[NET_SCHED]: Fix endless loops caused by inaccurate qlen countersPatrick McHardy
There are multiple problems related to qlen adjustment that can lead to an upper qdisc getting out of sync with the real number of packets queued, leading to endless dequeueing attempts by the upper layer code. All qdiscs must maintain an accurate q.qlen counter. There are basically two groups of operations affecting the qlen: operations that propagate down the tree (enqueue, dequeue, requeue, drop, reset) beginning at the root qdisc and operations only affecting a subtree or single qdisc (change, graft, delete class). Since qlen changes during operations from the second group don't propagate to ancestor qdiscs, their qlen values become desynchronized. This patch adds a function to propagate qlen changes up the qdisc tree, optionally calling a callback function to perform qdisc-internal maintenance when the child qdisc is deactivated, and converts all qdiscs to use this where necessary.
