xfrm: fix a data-race in xfrm_gen_index()

2023-10-25T09:16:43+00:00

commit 3e4bc23926b83c3c67e5f61ae8571602754131a6 upstream. xfrm_gen_index() mutual exclusion uses net->xfrm.xfrm_policy_lock. This means we must use a per-netns idx_generator variable, instead of a static one. Alternative would be to use an atomic variable. syzbot reported: BUG: KCSAN: data-race in xfrm_sk_policy_insert / xfrm_sk_policy_insert write to 0xffffffff87005938 of 4 bytes by task 29466 on cpu 0: xfrm_gen_index net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c:1385 [inline] xfrm_sk_policy_insert+0x262/0x640 net/xfrm/xfrm_policy.c:2347 xfrm_user_policy+0x413/0x540 net/xfrm/xfrm_state.c:2639 do_ipv6_setsockopt+0x1317/0x2ce0 net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c:943 ipv6_setsockopt+0x57/0x130 net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c:1012 rawv6_setsockopt+0x21e/0x410 net/ipv6/raw.c:1054 sock_common_setsockopt+0x61/0x70 net/core/sock.c:3697 __sys_setsockopt+0x1c9/0x230 net/socket.c:2263 __do_sys_setsockopt net/socket.c:2274 [inline] __se_sys_setsockopt net/socket.c:2271 [inline] __x64_sys_setsockopt+0x66/0x80 net/socket.c:2271 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x41/0xc0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd read to 0xffffffff87005938 of 4 bytes by task 29460 on cpu 1: xfrm_sk_policy_insert+0x13e/0x640 xfrm_user_policy+0x413/0x540 net/xfrm/xfrm_state.c:2639 do_ipv6_setsockopt+0x1317/0x2ce0 net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c:943 ipv6_setsockopt+0x57/0x130 net/ipv6/ipv6_sockglue.c:1012 rawv6_setsockopt+0x21e/0x410 net/ipv6/raw.c:1054 sock_common_setsockopt+0x61/0x70 net/core/sock.c:3697 __sys_setsockopt+0x1c9/0x230 net/socket.c:2263 __do_sys_setsockopt net/socket.c:2274 [inline] __se_sys_setsockopt net/socket.c:2271 [inline] __x64_sys_setsockopt+0x66/0x80 net/socket.c:2271 do_syscall_x64 arch/x86/entry/common.c:50 [inline] do_syscall_64+0x41/0xc0 arch/x86/entry/common.c:80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x63/0xcd value changed: 0x00006ad8 -> 0x00006b18 Reported by Kernel Concurrency Sanitizer on: CPU: 1 PID: 29460 Comm: syz-executor.1 Not tainted 6.5.0-rc5-syzkaller-00243-g9106536c1aa3 #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 07/26/2023 Fixes: 1121994c803f ("netns xfrm: policy insertion in netns") Reported-by: syzbot Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: Steffen Klassert Cc: Herbert Xu Acked-by: Herbert Xu Signed-off-by: Steffen Klassert Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

netfilter: nf_tables: use net_generic infra for transaction data

[ 0854db2aaef3fcdd3498a9d299c60adea2aa3dc6 ] This moves all nf_tables pernet data from struct net to a net_generic extension, with the exception of the gencursor. The latter is used in the data path and also outside of the nf_tables core. All others are only used from the configuration plane.

Remove DECnet support from kernel

2023-06-21T13:39:57+00:00

commit 1202cdd665315c525b5237e96e0bedc76d7e754f upstream. DECnet is an obsolete network protocol that receives more attention from kernel janitors than users. It belongs in computer protocol history museum not in Linux kernel. It has been "Orphaned" in kernel since 2010. The iproute2 support for DECnet was dropped in 5.0 release. The documentation link on Sourceforge says it is abandoned there as well. Leave the UAPI alone to keep userspace programs compiling. This means that there is still an empty neighbour table for AF_DECNET. The table of /proc/sys/net entries was updated to match current directories and reformatted to be alphabetical.

net: xfrm: Localize sequence counter per network namespace

2021-04-14T06:22:34+00:00

[ Upstream commit e88add19f68191448427a6e4eb059664650a837f ] A sequence counter write section must be serialized or its internal state can get corrupted. The "xfrm_state_hash_generation" seqcount is global, but its write serialization lock (net->xfrm.xfrm_state_lock) is instantiated per network namespace. The write protection is thus insufficient. To provide full protection, localize the sequence counter per network namespace instead. This should be safe as both the seqcount read and write sections access data exclusively within the network namespace. It also lays the foundation for transforming "xfrm_state_hash_generation" data type from seqcount_t to seqcount_LOCKNAME_t in further commits.

tcp: add tcp_min_snd_mss sysctl

2019-06-17T17:51:56+00:00

commit 5f3e2bf008c2221478101ee72f5cb4654b9fc363 upstream. Some TCP peers announce a very small MSS option in their SYN and/or SYN/ACK messages. This forces the stack to send packets with a very high network/cpu overhead. Linux has enforced a minimal value of 48. Since this value includes the size of TCP options, and that the options can consume up to 40 bytes, this means that each segment can include only 8 bytes of payload. In some cases, it can be useful to increase the minimal value to a saner value. We still let the default to 48 (TCP_MIN_SND_MSS), for compatibility reasons. Note that TCP_MAXSEG socket option enforces a minimal value of (TCP_MIN_MSS). David Miller increased this minimal value in commit c39508d6f118 ("tcp: Make TCP_MAXSEG minimum more correct.") from 64 to 88. We might in the future merge TCP_MIN_SND_MSS and TCP_MIN_MSS.

inet: switch IP ID generator to siphash

2019-06-04T06:02:30+00:00

[ Upstream commit df453700e8d81b1bdafdf684365ee2b9431fb702 ] According to Amit Klein and Benny Pinkas, IP ID generation is too weak and might be used by attackers. Even with recent net_hash_mix() fix (netns: provide pure entropy for net_hash_mix()) having 64bit key and Jenkins hash is risky. It is time to switch to siphash and its 128bit keys.

netns: provide pure entropy for net_hash_mix()

[ Upstream commit 355b98553789b646ed97ad801a619ff898471b92 ] net_hash_mix() currently uses kernel address of a struct net, and is used in many places that could be used to reveal this address to a patient attacker, thus defeating KASLR, for the typical case (initial net namespace, &init_net is not dynamically allocated) I believe the original implementation tried to avoid spending too many cycles in this function, but security comes first. Also provide entropy regardless of CONFIG_NET_NS.

ipv6: Add icmp_echo_ignore_all support for ICMPv6

2018-08-13T15:42:25+00:00

Preventing the kernel from responding to ICMP Echo Requests messages can be useful in several ways. The sysctl parameter 'icmp_echo_ignore_all' can be used to prevent the kernel from responding to IPv4 ICMP echo requests. For IPv6 pings, such a sysctl kernel parameter did not exist. Add the ability to prevent the kernel from responding to IPv6 ICMP echo requests through the use of the following sysctl parameter : /proc/sys/net/ipv6/icmp/echo_ignore_all. Update the documentation to reflect this change. Signed-off-by: Virgile Jarry Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: ipv4: Control SKB reprioritization after forwarding

2018-08-01T16:52:30+00:00

After IPv4 packets are forwarded, the priority of the corresponding SKB is updated according to the TOS field of IPv4 header. This overrides any prioritization done earlier by e.g. an skbedit action or ingress-qos-map defined at a vlan device. Such overriding may not always be desirable. Even if the packet ends up being routed, which implies this is an L3 network node, an administrator may wish to preserve whatever prioritization was done earlier on in the pipeline. Therefore introduce a sysctl that controls this behavior. Keep the default value at 1 to maintain backward-compatible behavior.
