2006-11-05[NETFILTER]: Fix ip6_tables extension header bypass bug (CVE-2006-4572)Patrick McHardy
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.

As reported by Mark Dowd <Mark_Dowd@McAfee.com>, ip6_tables is susceptible to a fragmentation attack causing false negatives on protocol matches. When the protocol header doesn't follow the fragment header immediately, the fragment header contains the protocol number of the next extension header. When the extension header and the protocol header are sent in a second fragment a rule like "ip6tables .. -p udp -j DROP" 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.

2006-05-20[PATCH] Netfilter: do_add_counters race, possible oops or info leak ↵Chris Wright
(CVE-2006-0039) Solar Designer found a race condition in do_add_counters(). The beginning of paddc is supposed to be the same as tmp which was sanity-checked above, but it might not be the same in reality. In case the integer overflow and/or the race condition are triggered, paddc->num_counters might not match the allocation size for paddc. If the check below (t->private->number != paddc->num_counters) nevertheless passes (perhaps this requires the race condition to be triggered), IPT_ENTRY_ITERATE() would read kernel memory beyond the allocation size, potentially causing an oops or leaking sensitive data (e.g., passwords from host system or from another VPS) via counter increments. This requires CAP_NET_ADMIN. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=191698 Cc: Solar Designer <solar@openwall.com> Cc: Kirill Korotaev <dev@sw.ru> Cc: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> (chrisw: rebase of Kirill's patch to 2.6.16.16) Signed-off-by: Chris Wright <chrisw@sous-sol.org> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2006-02-04[NETFILTER]: Fix possible overflow in netfilters do_replace()Kirill Korotaev
netfilter's do_replace() can overflow on addition within SMP_ALIGN() and/or on multiplication by NR_CPUS, resulting in a buffer overflow on the copy_from_user(). In practice, the overflow on addition is triggerable on all systems, whereas the multiplication one might require much physical memory to be present due to the check above. Either is sufficient to overwrite arbitrary amounts of kernel memory. I really hate adding the same check to all 4 versions of do_replace(), but the code is duplicate...

2006-01-12[NETFILTER] x_tables: Abstraction layer for {ip,ip6,arp}_tablesHarald Welte
This monster-patch tries to do the best job for unifying the data structures and backend interfaces for the three evil clones ip_tables, ip6_tables and arp_tables. In an ideal world we would never have allowed this kind of copy+paste programming... but well, our world isn't (yet?) ideal. o introduce a new x_tables module o {ip,arp,ip6}_tables depend on this x_tables module o registration functions for tables, matches and targets are only wrappers around x_tables provided functions o all matches/targets that are used from ip_tables and ip6_tables are now implemented as xt_FOOBAR.c files and provide module aliases to ipt_FOOBAR and ip6t_FOOBAR o header files for xt_matches are in include/linux/netfilter/, include/linux/netfilter_{ipv4,ipv6} contains compatibility wrappers around the xt_FOOBAR.h headers Based on this patchset we're going to further unify the code, gradually getting rid of all the layer 3 specific assumptions.

2006-01-05[NETFILTER]: make ipv6_find_hdr() find transport protocol headerPatrick McHardy
The original ipv6_find_hdr() finds the specified header in IPv6 packets. This makes it possible to get transport header so that we can kill similar loop in ip6_match_packet(). Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2006-01-03[NETFILTER] ip_tables: NUMA-aware allocationEric Dumazet
Part of a performance problem with ip_tables is that memory allocation is not NUMA aware, but 'only' SMP aware (ie each CPU normally touch separate cache lines) Even with small iptables rules, the cost of this misplacement can be high on common workloads. Instead of using one vmalloc() area (located in the node of the iptables process), we now allocate an area for each possible CPU, using vmalloc_node() so that memory should be allocated in the CPU's node if possible.

2005-11-29[NET]: Add const markers to various variables.Arjan van de Ven
the patch below marks various variables const in net/; the goal is to move them to the .rodata section so that they can't false-share cachelines with things that get written to, as well as potentially helping gcc a bit with optimisations.

2005-10-31[NETFILTER]: Add "revision" support to arp_tables and ip6_tablesHarald Welte

2005-10-13[NETFILTER]: Fix OOPSes on machines with discontiguous cpu numbering.David S. Miller
Original patch by Harald Welte, with feedback from Herbert Xu and testing by Sébastien Bernard. EBTABLES, ARP tables, and IP/IP6 tables all assume that cpus are numbered linearly. That is not necessarily true. This patch fixes that up by calculating the largest possible cpu number, and allocating enough per-cpu structure space given that. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-09-19[NETFILTER] ip6tables: remove duplicate codeYasuyuki Kozakai
Some IPv6 matches have very similar loops to find IPv6 extension header and we can unify them. This patch introduces ipv6_find_hdr() to do it. I just checked that it can find the target headers in the packet which has dst,hbh,rt,frag,ah,esp headers.

2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: reduce netfilter sk_buff enlargementHarald Welte
As discussed at netconf'05, we're trying to save every bit in sk_buff. The patch below makes sk_buff 8 bytes smaller. I did some basic testing on my notebook and it seems to work. The only real in-tree user of nfcache was IPVS, who only needs a single bit. Unfortunately I couldn't find some other free bit in sk_buff to stuff that bit into, so I introduced a separate field for them. Maybe the IPVS guys can resolve that to further save space. Initially I wanted to shrink pkt_type to three bits (PACKET_HOST and alike are only 6 values defined), but unfortunately the bluetooth code overloads pkt_type :( The conntrack-event-api (out-of-tree) uses nfcache, but Rusty just came up with a way how to do it without any skb fields, so it's safe to remove it. - remove all never-implemented 'nfcache' code - don't have ipvs code abuse 'nfcache' field. currently get's their own compile-conditional skb->ipvs_property field. IPVS maintainers can decide to move this bit elswhere, but nfcache needs to die. - remove skb->nfcache field to save 4 bytes - move skb->nfctinfo into three unused bits to save further 4 bytes Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
