linux-toradex.git/include/linux, branch v3.2.33 Linux kernel for Apalis and Colibri modules vlan: don't deliver frames for unknown vlans to protocols 2012-10-30T23:26:34+00:00 Florian Zumbiehl florz@florz.de 2012-10-07T15:51:58+00:00 16e23aa20ef67e5a97347aecbeae843e72149a68 [ Upstream commit 48cc32d38a52d0b68f91a171a8d00531edc6a46e ] 6a32e4f9dd9219261f8856f817e6655114cfec2f made the vlan code skip marking vlan-tagged frames for not locally configured vlans as PACKET_OTHERHOST if there was an rx_handler, as the rx_handler could cause the frame to be received on a different (virtual) vlan-capable interface where that vlan might be configured.

For example, if an ipv6 router advertisement that's tagged for a locally not configured vlan is received on an interface with macvlan interfaces attached, macvlan's rx_handler returns RX_HANDLER_PASS after delivering the frame to the macvlan interfaces, which caused it to be passed to the protocol stack, leading to ipv6 addresses for the announced prefix being configured even though those are completely unusable on the underlying interface. The fix moves marking as PACKET_OTHERHOST after the rx_handler so the rx_handler, if there is one, sees the frame unchanged, but afterwards, before the frame is delivered to the protocol stack, it gets marked whether there is an rx_handler or not.

[ Upstream commit 48cc32d38a52d0b68f91a171a8d00531edc6a46e ]

6a32e4f9dd9219261f8856f817e6655114cfec2f made the vlan code skip marking
vlan-tagged frames for not locally configured vlans as PACKET_OTHERHOST if
there was an rx_handler, as the rx_handler could cause the frame to be received
on a different (virtual) vlan-capable interface where that vlan might be
configured.

As rx_handlers do not necessarily return RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER, this could cause
frames for unknown vlans to be delivered to the protocol stack as if they had
been received untagged.

For example, if an ipv6 router advertisement that's tagged for a locally not
configured vlan is received on an interface with macvlan interfaces attached,
macvlan's rx_handler returns RX_HANDLER_PASS after delivering the frame to the
macvlan interfaces, which caused it to be passed to the protocol stack, leading
to ipv6 addresses for the announced prefix being configured even though those
are completely unusable on the underlying interface.

The fix moves marking as PACKET_OTHERHOST after the rx_handler so the
rx_handler, if there is one, sees the frame unchanged, but afterwards,
before the frame is delivered to the protocol stack, it gets marked whether
there is an rx_handler or not.

mtd: nand: allow NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE to be set from driver 2012-10-30T23:26:28+00:00 Brian Norris computersforpeace@gmail.com 2012-07-13T16:28:24+00:00 a8cfa724f6059e312e7a10f3116f4d028842d73c commit bf7a01bf7987b63b121d572b240c132ec44129c4 upstream. The NAND_CHIPOPTIONS_MSK has limited utility and is causing real bugs. It silently masks off at least one flag that might be set by the driver (NAND_NO_SUBPAGE_WRITE). This breaks the GPMI NAND driver and possibly others. Really, as long as driver writers exercise a small amount of care with NAND_* options, this mask is not necessary at all; it was only here to prevent certain options from accidentally being set by the driver. But the original thought turns out to be a bad idea occasionally. Thus, kill it. Note, this patch fixes some major gpmi-nand breakage.

The current code fails to ensure that the netlink message actually
contains as many bytes as the header indicates. If a user creates a new
state or updates an existing one but does not supply the bytes for the
whole ESN replay window, the kernel copies random heap bytes into the
replay bitmap, the ones happen to follow the XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL
netlink attribute. This leads to following issues:

1. The replay window has random bits set confusing the replay handling
   code later on.

2. A malicious user could use this flaw to leak up to ~3.5kB of heap
   memory when she has access to the XFRM netlink interface (requires
   CAP_NET_ADMIN).

Known users of the ESN replay window are strongSwan and Steffen's
iproute2 patch (<http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/85962/>). The latter
uses the interface with a bitmap supplied while the former does not.
strongSwan is therefore prone to run into issue 1.

To fix both issues without breaking existing userland allow using the
XFRMA_REPLAY_ESN_VAL netlink attribute with either an empty bitmap or a
