libceph: Fix NULL pointer dereference in auth client code

2013-07-13T18:42:25+00:00

commit 2cb33cac622afde897aa02d3dcd9fbba8bae839e upstream.

A malicious monitor can craft an auth reply message that could cause a
NULL function pointer dereference in the client's kernel.

To prevent this, the auth_none protocol handler needs an empty
ceph_auth_client_ops->build_request() function.

af_key: fix info leaks in notify messages

2013-06-26T22:15:54+00:00

key_notify_sa_flush() and key_notify_policy_flush() miss to initialize
the sadb_msg_reserved member of the broadcasted message and thereby
leak 2 bytes of heap memory to listeners. Fix that.

ipv6: ip6_sk_dst_check() must not assume ipv6 dst

2013-06-26T22:13:47+00:00

It's possible to use AF_INET6 sockets and to connect to an IPv4
destination. After this, socket dst cache is a pointer to a rtable,
not rt6_info.

ip6_sk_dst_check() should check the socket dst cache is IPv6, or else
various corruptions/crashes can happen.

Dave Jones can reproduce immediate crash with
trinity -q -l off -n -c sendmsg -c connect

net: fix kernel deadlock with interface rename and netdev name retrieval.

2013-06-26T20:42:54+00:00

When the kernel (compiled with CONFIG_PREEMPT=n) is performing the
rename of a network interface, it can end up waiting for a workqueue
to complete. If userland is able to invoke a SIOCGIFNAME ioctl or a
SO_BINDTODEVICE getsockopt in between, the kernel will deadlock due to
the fact that read_secklock_begin() will spin forever waiting for the
writer process (the one doing the interface rename) to update the
devnet_rename_seq sequence.

This patch fixes the problem by adding a helper (netdev_get_name())
and using it in the code handling the SIOCGIFNAME ioctl and
SO_BINDTODEVICE setsockopt.

The netdev_get_name() helper uses raw_seqcount_begin() to avoid
spinning forever, waiting for devnet_rename_seq->sequence to become
even. cond_resched() is used in the contended case, before retrying
the access to give the writer process a chance to finish.

The use of raw_seqcount_begin() will incur some unneeded work in the
reader process in the contended case, but this is better than
deadlocking the system.

ipv6: check return value of ipv6_get_lladdr

2013-06-25T23:27:28+00:00

We should check the return value of ipv6_get_lladdr in inet6_set_iftoken.

A possible situation, which could leave ll_addr unassigned is, when
the user removed her link-local address but a global scoped address was
already set. In this case the interface would still be IF_READY and not
dead. In that case the RS source address is some value from the stack.

v2: Daniel Borkmann noted a small indent inconstancy; no semantic
changes.

gre: fix a possible skb leak

2013-06-25T23:07:44+00:00

commit 68c331631143 ("v4 GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE")
added a possible skb leak, because it frees only the head of segment
list, in case a skb_linearize() call fails.

This patch adds a kfree_skb_list() helper to fix the bug.

John W. Linville says:

====================
A few more late-breaking fixes hoping for 3.10...

Regarding the Bluetooth fix, Gustavo says:

"A important fix to 3.10, this patch fixes an issues that was preventing
the l2cap info response command to be handled properly."

Also for that Bluetooth fix, Johan adds:

"Once the code gives up parsing this PDU it also gives up essential
parts of the L2CAP connection creation process, i.e. without this
patch the stack will fail to establish connections properly."

Moving onto ath9k, Felix Fietkau fixes an RCU locking issue in
the transmit path.  As for ath9k_htc, Sujith Manoharan fixes some
authentication timeouts by ensuring that a chip reset is done when
IDLE is turned off.

I think these are all micro-fixes that shouldn't cause any trouble.
Please let me know if there are problems!

ipv6: Process unicast packet with Router Alert by checking flag in skb.

2013-06-25T21:47:22+00:00

Router Alert option is marked in skb.
Previously, IP6CB(skb)->ra was set to positive value for such packets.
Since commit dd3332bf ("ipv6: Store Router Alert option in IP6CB
directly."), IP6SKB_ROUTERALERT is set in IP6CB(skb)->flags, and
the value of Router Alert option (in network byte order) is set
to IP6CB(skb)->ra for such packets.

Multicast forwarding path uses that flag and value, but unicast
forwarding path does not use the flag and misuses IP6CB(skb)->ra
value.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
The following patchset contains five fixes for Netfilter/IPVS, they are:

* A skb leak fix in fragmentation handling in case that helpers are in place,
  it occurs since the IPV6 NAT infrastructure, from Phil Oester.

* Fix SCTP port mangling in ICMP packets for IPVS, from Julian Anastasov.

* Fix event delivery in ctnetlink regarding the new connlabel infrastructure,
  from Florian Westphal.

* Fix mangling in the SIP NAT helper, from Balazs Peter Odor.

* Fix crash in ipt_ULOG introduced while adding netnamespace support,
  from Gao Feng.

I'll take care of passing several of these patches to -stable once they hit
Linus' tree.
