netfilter: ip6t_rt: reject oversized addrnr in rt_mt6_check()

2026-04-18T08:31:05+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9d3f027327c2fa265f7f85ead41294792c3296ed ] Reject rt match rules whose addrnr exceeds IP6T_RT_HOPS. rt_mt6() expects addrnr to stay within the bounds of rtinfo->addrs[]. Validate addrnr during rule installation so malformed rules are rejected before the match logic can use an out-of-range value.

netfilter: nft_reject_inet: allow to use reject from inet ingress

2025-08-28T14:22:59+00:00

[ Upstream commit 117ca1f8920cf4087bf82f44bd2a51b49d6aae63 ] Enhance validation to support for reject from inet ingress chains. Note that, reject from inet ingress and netdev ingress differ. Reject packets from inet ingress are sent through ip_local_out() since inet reject emulates the IP layer receive path. So the reject packet follows to classic IP output and postrouting paths. The reject action from netdev ingress assumes the packet not yet entered the IP layer, so the reject packet is sent through dev_queue_xmit(). Therefore, reject packets from netdev ingress do not follow the classic IP output and postrouting paths.

netfilter: nf_tables: nft_fib_ipv6: fix VRF ipv4/ipv6 result discrepancy

2025-06-27T10:04:03+00:00

[ Upstream commit 8b53f46eb430fe5b42d485873b85331d2de2c469 ] With a VRF, ipv4 and ipv6 FIB expression behave differently. fib daddr . iif oif Will return the input interface name for ipv4, but the real device for ipv6. Example: If VRF device name is tvrf and real (incoming) device is veth0. First round is ok, both ipv4 and ipv6 will yield 'veth0'. But in the second round (incoming device will be set to "tvrf"), ipv4 will yield "tvrf" whereas ipv6 returns "veth0" for the second round too. This makes ipv6 behave like ipv4. A followup patch will add a test case for this, without this change it will fail with: get element inet t fibif6iif { tvrf . dead:1::99 . tvrf } ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ FAIL: did not find tvrf . dead:1::99 . tvrf in fibif6iif Alternatively we could either not do anything at all or change ipv4 to also return the lower/real device, however, nft (userspace) doc says "iif: if fib lookup provides a route then check its output interface is identical to the packets input interface." which is what the nft fib ipv4 behaviour is.

netfilter: socket: Lookup orig tuple for IPv6 SNAT

2025-04-10T12:30:54+00:00

commit 932b32ffd7604fb00b5c57e239a3cc4d901ccf6e upstream. nf_sk_lookup_slow_v4 does the conntrack lookup for IPv4 packets to restore the original 5-tuple in case of SNAT, to be able to find the right socket (if any). Then socket_match() can correctly check whether the socket was transparent. However, the IPv6 counterpart (nf_sk_lookup_slow_v6) lacks this conntrack lookup, making xt_socket fail to match on the socket when the packet was SNATed. Add the same logic to nf_sk_lookup_slow_v6. IPv6 SNAT is used in Kubernetes clusters for pod-to-world packets, as pods' addresses are in the fd00::/8 ULA subnet and need to be replaced with the node's external address. Cilium leverages Envoy to enforce L7 policies, and Envoy uses transparent sockets. Cilium inserts an iptables prerouting rule that matches on `-m socket --transparent` and redirects the packets to localhost, but it fails to match SNATed IPv6 packets due to that missing conntrack lookup.

netfilter: rpfilter/fib: Set ->flowic_uid correctly for user namespaces.

2024-10-17T13:08:36+00:00

[ Upstream commit 1fcc064b305a1aadeff0d4bff961094d27660acd ] Currently netfilter's rpfilter and fib modules implicitely initialise ->flowic_uid with 0. This is normally the root UID. However, this isn't the case in user namespaces, where user ID 0 is mapped to a different kernel UID. By initialising ->flowic_uid with sock_net_uid(), we get the root UID of the user namespace, thus keeping the same behaviour whether or not we're running in a user namepspace. Note, this is similar to commit 8bcfd0925ef1 ("ipv4: add missing initialization for flowi4_uid"), which fixed the rp_filter sysctl.
