commit 4b31814d20cbe5cd4ccf18089751e77a04afe4f2 upstream.

When zones were originally introduced, the expectation functions were
all extended to perform lookup using the zone. However, insertion was
not modified to check the zone. This means that two expectations which
are intended to apply for different connections that have the same tuple
but exist in different zones cannot both be tracked.

commit 3b05ac3824ed9648c0d9c02d51d9b54e4e7e874f upstream.

The app_tcp_pkt_out() function expects "*diff" to be set and ends up
using uninitialized data if CONFIG_IP_VS_IPV6 is turned on.

The same issue is there in app_tcp_pkt_in().  Thanks to Julian Anastasov
for noticing that.

commit 579eb62ac35845686a7c4286c0a820b4eb1f96aa upstream.

commit f5a41847acc5 ("ipvs: move ip_route_me_harder for ICMP")
from 2.6.37 introduced ip_route_me_harder() call for responses to
local clients, so that we can provide valid rt_src after SNAT.
It was used by TCP to provide valid daddr for ip_send_reply().
After commit 0a5ebb8000c5 ("ipv4: Pass explicit daddr arg to
ip_send_reply()." from 3.0 this rerouting is not needed anymore
and should be avoided, especially in LOCAL_IN.

<content type='text'>
commit 330966e501ffe282d7184fde4518d5e0c24bc7f8 upstream.

skb_gso_segment has three possible return values:
1. a pointer to the first segmented skb
2. an errno value (IS_ERR())
3. NULL.  This can happen when GSO is used for header verification.

However, several callers currently test IS_ERR instead of IS_ERR_OR_NULL
and would oops when NULL is returned.

Note that these call sites should never actually see such a NULL return
value; all callers mask out the GSO bits in the feature argument.

However, there have been issues with some protocol handlers erronously not
respecting the specified feature mask in some cases.

It is preferable to get 'have to turn off hw offloading, else slow' reports
rather than 'kernel crashes'.

commit 528c943f3bb919aef75ab2fff4f00176f09a4019 upstream.

ip_vs_conn_fill_param_sync() gets in param.pe a module
reference for persistence engine from __ip_vs_pe_getbyname()
but forgets to put it. Problem occurs in backup for
sync protocol v1 (2.6.39).

Also, pe_data usually comes in sync messages for
connection templates and ip_vs_conn_new() copies
the pointer only in this case. Make sure pe_data
is not leaked if it comes unexpectedly for normal
connections. Leak can happen only if bogus messages
are sent to backup server.

commit 78296c97ca1fd3b104f12e1f1fbc06c46635990b upstream.

As soon as extract_icmp6_fields() returns, its local storage (automatic
variables) is deallocated and can be overwritten.

Lets add an additional parameter to make sure storage is valid long
enough.

While we are at it, adds some const qualifiers.

commit db29a9508a9246e77087c5531e45b2c88ec6988b upstream.

Given following iptables ruleset:

-P FORWARD DROP
-A FORWARD -m sctp --dport 9 -j ACCEPT
-A FORWARD -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
-A FORWARD -p tcp -m conntrack -m state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT

One would assume that this allows SCTP on port 9 and TCP on port 80.
Unfortunately, if the SCTP conntrack module is not loaded, this allows
*all* SCTP communication, to pass though, i.e. -p sctp -j ACCEPT,
which we think is a security issue.

This is because on the first SCTP packet on port 9, we create a dummy
"generic l4" conntrack entry without any port information (since
conntrack doesn't know how to extract this information).

All subsequent packets that are unknown will then be in established
state since they will fallback to proto_generic and will match the
'generic' entry.

Our originally proposed version [1] completely disabled generic protocol
tracking, but Jozsef suggests to not track protocols for which a more
suitable helper is available, hence we now mitigate the issue for in
tree known ct protocol helpers only, so that at least NAT and direction
information will still be preserved for others.

Joint work with Daniel Borkmann.

commit 2196937e12b1b4ba139806d132647e1651d655df upstream.

We could be reading 8 bytes into a 4 byte buffer here.  It seems
harmless but adding a check is the right thing to do and it silences a
static checker warning.
