[ Upstream commit c92b544bd5d8e7ed7d81c77bbecab6df2a95aa53 ]

The commit 0b5ccb2(title:ipv6: reassembly: use seperate reassembly queues for
conntrack and local delivery) has broken the saddr&amp;&amp;daddr member of
nf_ct_frag6_queue when creating new queue.  And then hash value
generated by nf_hashfn() was not equal with that generated by fq_find().
So, a new received fragment can't be inserted to right queue.

The patch fixes the bug with adding member of user to nf_ct_frag6_queue structure.

[ Upstream commit 88af182e389097997c5e2a0b42285b3522796759 ]

Yuck.  It turns out that when we restart sysctls we were restarting
with the values already changed.  Which unfortunately meant that
the second time through we thought there was no change and skipped
all kinds of work, despite the fact that there was indeed a change.

I have fixed this the simplest way possible by restoring the changed
values when we restart the sysctl write.

One of my coworkers spotted this bug when after disabling forwarding
on an interface pings were still forwarded.

As per C99 6.2.4(2) when temporary table data goes out of scope,
the behaviour is undefined:

commit 2570a4f5428bcdb1077622342181755741e7fa60 upstream.

This fixes CERT-FI FICORA #341748

Discovered by Olli Jarva and Tuomo Untinen from the CROSS
project at Codenomicon Ltd.

Just like in CVE-2007-4567, we can't rely upon skb_dst() being
non-NULL at this point.  We fixed that in commit
e76b2b2567b83448c2ee85a896433b96150c92e6 ("[IPV6]: Do no rely on
skb-&gt;dst before it is assigned.")

However commit 483a47d2fe794328d29950fe00ce26dd405d9437 ("ipv6: added
net argument to IP6_INC_STATS_BH") put a new version of the same bug
into this function.

Complicating analysis further, this bug can only trigger when network
namespaces are enabled in the build.  When namespaces are turned off,
the dev_net() does not evaluate it's argument, so the dereference
would not occur.

So, for a long time, namespaces couldn't be turned on unless SYSFS was
disabled.  Therefore, this code has largely been disabled except by
people turning it on explicitly for namespace development.

<title>netfilter: fix crashes in bridge netfilter caused by fragment jumps</title>

commit 8fa9ff6849bb86c59cc2ea9faadf3cb2d5223497 upstream.

When fragments from bridge netfilter are passed to IPv4 or IPv6 conntrack
and a reassembly queue with the same fragment key already exists from
reassembling a similar packet received on a different device (f.i. with
multicasted fragments), the reassembled packet might continue on a different
codepath than where the head fragment originated. This can cause crashes
in bridge netfilter when a fragment received on a non-bridge device (and
thus with skb-&gt;nf_bridge == NULL) continues through the bridge netfilter
code.

Add a new reassembly identifier for packets originating from bridge
netfilter and use it to put those packets in insolated queues.

commit 0b5ccb2ee250136dd7385b1c7da28417d0d4d32d upstream.

Currently the same reassembly queue might be used for packets reassembled
by conntrack in different positions in the stack (PREROUTING/LOCAL_OUT),
as well as local delivery. This can cause "packet jumps" when the fragment
completing a reassembled packet is queued from a different position in the
stack than the previous ones.

Add a "user" identifier to the reassembly queue key to seperate the queues
of each caller, similar to what we do for IPv4.

ipv4/ipv6 setsockopt(IP_MULTICAST_IF) have dubious __dev_get_by_index() calls.

This function should be called only with RTNL or dev_base_lock held, or reader
could see a corrupt hash chain and eventually enter an endless loop.

Fix is to call dev_get_by_index()/dev_put().

If this happens to be performance critical, we could define a new dev_exist_by_index()
function to avoid touching dev refcount.

When requesting all prl entries (kprl.addr == INADDR_ANY) and there are
more prl entries than there is space passed from userspace, the existing
code would always copy cmax+1 entries, which is more than can be handled.

This patch makes the kernel copy only exactly cmax entries.

This provides safety against negative optlen at the type
level instead of depending upon (sometimes non-trivial)
checks against this sprinkled all over the the place, in
each and every implementation.

Based upon work done by Arjan van de Ven and feedback
from Linus Torvalds.
