net: sched: fix NULL pointer dereference when action calls some targets
[ Upstream commit 4f8a881acc9d1adaf1e552349a0b1df28933a04c ] As we know in some target's checkentry it may dereference par.entryinfo to check entry stuff inside. But when sched action calls xt_check_target, par.entryinfo is set with NULL. It would cause kernel panic when calling some targets. It can be reproduce with: # tc qd add dev eth1 ingress handle ffff: # tc filter add dev eth1 parent ffff: u32 match u32 0 0 action xt \ -j ECN --ecn-tcp-remove It could also crash kernel when using target CLUSTERIP or TPROXY. By now there's no proper value for par.entryinfo in ipt_init_target, but it can not be set with NULL. This patch is to void all these panics by setting it with an ipt_entry obj with all members = 0. Note that this issue has been there since the very beginning. Signed-off-by: Xin Long <lucien.xin@gmail.com> Acked-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.
