From a7f87b47e67e4341f6175cdb80e5c2eaadf30dcb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pablo Neira Ayuso Date: Sat, 30 Dec 2017 22:41:46 +0100 Subject: netfilter: remove defensive check on malformed packets from raw sockets Users cannot forge malformed IPv4/IPv6 headers via raw sockets that they can inject into the stack. Specifically, not for IPv4 since 55888dfb6ba7 ("AF_RAW: Augment raw_send_hdrinc to expand skb to fit iphdr->ihl (v2)"). IPv6 raw sockets also ensure that packets have a well-formed IPv6 header available in the skbuff. At quick glance, br_netfilter also validates layer 3 headers and it drops malformed both IPv4 and IPv6 packets. Therefore, let's remove this defensive check all over the place.
