I've got some code very dependant on nfnetlink_queue, and turned up a

my code, having not seen it on older kernels made me a bit suspect.
Anyhow, based on some googling I turned up this thread:

There's a bug in the seqfile show operation for flowlabel objects, where
each hash chain is traversed cumulatively for each element. The following
function is called for each element of each chain:
static void ip6fl_fl_seq_show(struct seq_file *seq, struct ip6_flowlabel *fl)
{
while(fl) {
seq_printf...
fl = fl->next;
}
}
Thus, objects can appear mutliple times when reading
/proc/net/ip6_flowlabel, as the above is called for each element in the
chain.
The solution is to remove the while() loop from the above, and traverse
each chain exactly once, per the patch below. This also removes the

that applications have the CAP_NET_RAW capability to set an IPOPT_CIPSO option
on a socket; this prevents untrusted applications from setting their own
CIPSOv4 security attributes on the packets they send. The second change is to
SELinux and it prevents applications from setting any IPv4 options when there
is an IPOPT_CIPSO option already present on the socket; this prevents
applications from removing CIPSOv4 security attributes from the packets they

There is a number of issues in parsing user-provided table in
translate_table(). Malicious user with CAP_NET_ADMIN may crash system by
passing special-crafted table to the *_tables.
The first issue is that mark_source_chains() function is called before entry
content checks. In case of standard target, mark_source_chains() function
uses t->verdict field in order to determine new position. But the check, that
this field leads no further, than the table end, is in check_entry(), which
is called later, than mark_source_chains().
The second issue, that there is no check that target_offset points inside
entry. If so, *_ITERATE_MATCH macro will follow further, than the entry
ends. As a result, we'll have oops or memory disclosure.
And the third issue, that there is no check that the target is completely
inside entry. Results are the same, as in previous issue.

I was looking at a RHEL5 bug report involving Xen and SCTP
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=212550).
It turns out that SCTP wasn't written to handle skb fragments at
all. The absence of any calls to skb_may_pull is testament to
that.
It just so happens that Xen creates fragmented packets more often
than other scenarios (header & data split when going from domU to
dom0). That's what caused this bug to show up.
Until someone has the time sits down and audits the entire net/sctp
directory, here is a conservative and safe solution that simply
linearises all packets on input.

skb_segment fails to segment linear packets correctly because it

This was not detected earlier because linear packets should be

A recent patch fixed a problem which would occur when the refcount on an
auth_domain reached zero. This problem has not been reported in practice
despite existing in two major kernel releases because the refcount can
never reach zero.
This patch fixes the problems that stop the refcount reaching zero.
1/ We were adding to the refcount when inserting in the hash table,
but only removing from the hashtable when the refcount reached zero.
Obviously it never would. So don't count the implied reference of
being in the hash table.
2/ There are two paths on which a socket can be destroyed. One called
svcauth_unix_info_release(). The other didn't. So when the other was
taken, we can lose a reference to an ip_map which in-turn holds a
reference to an auth_domain
So unify the exit paths into svc_sock_put. This highlights the fact
that svc_delete_socket has slightly odd semantics - it does not drop
a reference but probably should. Fixing this need a bit more
thought and testing.

As reported by Mark Dowd <Mark_Dowd@McAfee.com>, ip6_tables is susceptible
to a fragmentation attack causing false negatives on extension header matches.
When extension headers occur in the non-first fragment after the fragment
header (possibly with an incorrect nexthdr value in the fragment header)
a rule looking for this extension header will never match.
Drop fragments that are at offset 0 and don't contain the final protocol
header regardless of the ruleset, since this should not happen normally.
Since all extension headers are before the protocol header this makes sure
an extension header is either not present or in the first fragment, where
we can properly parse it.

I think I got the cause for the Oops observed in
http://www.mail-archive.com/dccp@vger.kernel.org/msg00578.html
The problem is always with applications listening on PF_INET6 sockets. Apart
from the mentioned oops, I observed another one one, triggered at irregular
intervals via timer interrupt:
run_timer_softirq -> dccp_keepalive_timer
-> inet_csk_reqsk_queue_prune
-> reqsk_free
-> dccp_v6_reqsk_destructor
The latter function is the problem and is also the last function to be called
in said kernel panic.
In any case, there is a real problem with allocating the right request_sock
which is what this patch tackles.
It fixes the following problem:
- application listens on PF_INET6
- DCCPv4 packet comes in, is handed over to dccp_v4_do_rcv, from there
to dccp_v4_conn_request
Now: socket is PF_INET6, packet is IPv4. The following code then furnishes the
connection with IPv6 - request_sock operations:
req = reqsk_alloc(sk->sk_prot->rsk_prot);
The first problem is that all further incoming packets will get a Reset since
the connection can not be looked up.
The second problem is worse:
--> reqsk_alloc is called instead of inet6_reqsk_alloc
--> consequently inet6_rsk_offset is never set (dangling pointer)
--> the request_sock_ops are nevertheless still dccp6_request_ops
--> destructor is called via reqsk_free
--> dccp_v6_reqsk_destructor tries to free random memory location (inet6_rsk_offset not set)
--> panic
I have tested this for a while, DCCP sockets are now handled correctly in all
three scenarios (v4/v6 only/v4-mapped).
Commiter note: I've added the dccp_request_sock_ops forward declaration to keep
the tree building and to reduce the size of the patch for 2.6.19,
later I'll move the functions to the top of the affected source
code to match what we have in the TCP counterpart, where this
problem hasn't existed in the first place, dumb me not to have
done the same thing on DCCP land 8)

The SK_CONN bit gets set when a listening socket may be ready
for an accept, just as SK_DATA is set when data may be available.
It is entirely possible for svc_tcp_accept to be called with neither
of these set. It doesn't happen often but there is a small race in
svc_sock_enqueue as SK_CONN and SK_DATA are tested outside the
spin_lock. They could be cleared immediately after the test and
before the lock is gained.
This normally shouldn't be a problem. The sockets are non-blocking so
trying to read() or accept() when ther is nothing to do is not a problem.
However: svc_tcp_recvfrom makes the decision "Should I accept() or
should I read()" based on whether SK_CONN is set or not. This usually
works but is not safe. The decision should be based on whether it is
a TCP_LISTEN socket or a TCP_CONNECTED socket.

The 32bit compatibility layer has no CAP_NET_ADMIN check in
compat_do_ipt_get_ctl, which for example allows to list the current

version requires it). Other capabilities might be required to exploit
the bug (eg. CAP_NET_RAW to get the nfnetlink socket?), so a plain user
can't exploit it, but a setup actually using the posix capability system

This patch limits the amount of time you will defer sending a TSO segment
to less than two clock ticks, or the time between two acks, whichever is
longer.
On slow links, deferring causes significant bursts. See attached plots,
which show RTT through a 1 Mbps link with a 100 ms RTT and ~100 ms queue
for (a) non-TSO, (b) currnet TSO, and (c) patched TSO. This burstiness
causes significant jitter, tends to overflow queues early (bad for short
queues), and makes delay-based congestion control more difficult.
Deferring by a couple clock ticks I believe will have a relatively small
impact on performance.

So:
Change nlm_fopen to return nlm error codes (rather than a private

Cause nlm_drop_reply to cause the rpc request to get rpc_drop_reply
when this error comes back.
Cause svc_process to drop a request which returns a status of
rpc_drop_reply.

Currently when an IPSec policy rule doesn't specify a security
context, it is assumed to be "unlabeled" by SELinux, and so
the IPSec policy rule fails to match to a flow that it would
otherwise match to, unless one has explicitly added an SELinux
policy rule allowing the flow to "polmatch" to the "unlabeled"
IPSec policy rules. In the absence of such an explicitly added
SELinux policy rule, the IPSec policy rule fails to match and
so the packet(s) flow in clear text without the otherwise applicable
xfrm(s) applied.
The above SELinux behavior violates the SELinux security notion of
"deny by default" which should actually translate to "encrypt by
default" in the above case.
This was first reported by Evgeniy Polyakov and the way James Morris
was seeing the problem was when connecting via IPsec to a
confined service on an SELinux box (vsftpd), which did not have the
appropriate SELinux policy permissions to send packets via IPsec.
With this patch applied, SELinux "polmatching" of flows Vs. IPSec
policy rules will only come into play when there's a explicit context
specified for the IPSec policy rule (which also means there's corresponding
SELinux policy allowing appropriate domains/flows to polmatch to this context).
Secondly, when a security module is loaded (in this case, SELinux), the
security_xfrm_policy_lookup() hook can return errors other than access denied,
such as -EINVAL. We were not handling that correctly, and in fact
inverting the return logic and propagating a false "ok" back up to
xfrm_lookup(), which then allowed packets to pass as if they were not
associated with an xfrm policy.
The solution for this is to first ensure that errno values are
correctly propagated all the way back up through the various call chains
from security_xfrm_policy_lookup(), and handled correctly.
Then, flow_cache_lookup() is modified, so that if the policy resolver
fails (typically a permission denied via the security module), the flow
cache entry is killed rather than having a null policy assigned (which
indicates that the packet can pass freely). This also forces any future
lookups for the same flow to consult the security module (e.g. SELinux)
for current security policy (rather than, say, caching the error on the
flow cache entry).
This patch: Fix the selinux side of things.
This makes sure SELinux polmatching of flow contexts to IPSec policy
rules comes into play only when an explicit context is associated
with the IPSec policy rule.
Also, this no longer defaults the context of a socket policy to
the context of the socket since the "no explicit context" case
is now handled properly.

The way I was seeing the problem was when connecting via IPsec to a
confined service on an SELinux box (vsftpd), which did not have the
appropriate SELinux policy permissions to send packets via IPsec.
The first SYNACK would be blocked, because of an uncached lookup via
flow_cache_lookup(), which would fail to resolve an xfrm policy because
the SELinux policy is checked at that point via the resolver.
However, retransmitted SYNACKs would then find a cached flow entry when
calling into flow_cache_lookup() with a null xfrm policy, which is
interpreted by xfrm_lookup() as the packet not having any associated
policy and similarly to the first case, allowing it to pass without
transformation.
The solution presented here is to first ensure that errno values are
correctly propagated all the way back up through the various call chains
from security_xfrm_policy_lookup(), and handled correctly.
Then, flow_cache_lookup() is modified, so that if the policy resolver
