2010-10-11net: clear heap allocations for privileged ethtool actionsKees Cook
Several other ethtool functions leave heap uncleared (potentially) by drivers. Some interfaces appear safe (eeprom, etc), in that the sizes are well controlled. In some situations (e.g. unchecked error conditions), the heap will remain unchanged in areas before copying back to userspace. Note that these are less of an issue since these all require CAP_NET_ADMIN.

2010-10-08net: clear heap allocation for ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALLKees Cook
Calling ETHTOOL_GRXCLSRLALL with a large rule_cnt will allocate kernel heap without clearing it. For the one driver (niu) that implements it, it will leave the unused portion of heap unchanged and copy the full contents back to userspace.

2010-10-06mac80211: delete AddBA response timerJohannes Berg
We never delete the addBA response timer, which is typically fine, but if the station it belongs to is deleted very quickly after starting the BA session, before the peer had a chance to reply, the timer may fire after the station struct has been freed already. Therefore, we need to delete the timer in a suitable spot -- best when the session is being stopped (which will happen even then) in which case the delete will be a no-op most of the time. I've reproduced the scenario and tested the fix.

2010-10-03sctp: Fix out-of-bounds reading in sctp_asoc_get_hmac()Dan Rosenberg
The sctp_asoc_get_hmac() function iterates through a peer's hmac_ids array and attempts to ensure that only a supported hmac entry is returned. The current code fails to do this properly - if the last id in the array is out of range (greater than SCTP_AUTH_HMAC_ID_MAX), the id integer remains set after exiting the loop, and the address of an out-of-bounds entry will be returned and subsequently used in the parent function, causing potentially ugly memory corruption. This patch resets the id integer to 0 on encountering an invalid id so that NULL will be returned after finishing the loop if no valid ids are found.

Two user-controlled allocations in SCTP are subsequently dereferenced as sockaddr structs, without checking if the dereferenced struct members fall beyond the end of the allocated chunk.

2010-10-03Revert "ipv4: Make INET_LRO a bool instead of tristate."Ben Hutchings
This reverts commit e81963b180ac502fda0326edf059b1e29cdef1a2. LRO is now deprecated in favour of GRO, and only a few drivers use it, so it is desirable to build it as a module in distribution kernels. The original change to prevent building it as a module was made in an attempt to avoid the case where some dependents are set to y and some to m, and INET_LRO can be set to m rather than y. However, the Kconfig system will reliably set INET_LRO=y in this case. Signed-off-by: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-09-30Bluetooth: Fix inconsistent lock state with RFCOMMGustavo F. Padovan
When receiving a rfcomm connection with the old dund deamon a inconsistent lock state happens. That's because interrupts were already disabled by l2cap_conn_start() when rfcomm_sk_state_change() try to lock the spin_lock. As result we may have a inconsistent lock state for l2cap_conn_start() after rfcomm_sk_state_change() calls bh_lock_sock() and disable interrupts as well.

It wants to prevent the total length from looking like an error return value. However it does this using 'int', but syscalls return 'long' (and thus signed 64-bit on 64-bit machines).

2010-09-27tcp: fix TSO FACK loss marking in tcp_mark_head_lostYuchung Cheng
When TCP uses FACK algorithm to mark lost packets in tcp_mark_head_lost(), if the number of packets in the (TSO) skb is greater than the number of packets that should be marked lost, TCP incorrectly exits the loop and marks no packets lost in the skb. This underestimates tp->lost_out and affects the recovery/retransmission. This patch fargments the skb and marks the correct amount of packets lost.

2010-09-26ipv6: add a missing unregister_pernet_subsys callNeil Horman
Clean up a missing exit path in the ipv6 module init routines. In addrconf_init we call ipv6_addr_label_init which calls register_pernet_subsys for the ipv6_addr_label_ops structure. But if module loading fails, or if the ipv6 module is removed, there is no corresponding unregister_pernet_subsys call, which leaves a now-bogus address on the pernet_list, leading to oopses in subsequent registrations. This patch cleans up both the failed load path and the unload path. Tested by myself with good results.

2010-09-24mac80211: fix use-after-freeJohannes Berg
commit 8c0c709eea5cbab97fb464cd68b06f24acc58ee1 Author: Johannes Berg <johannes@sipsolutions.net> Date: Wed Nov 25 17:46:15 2009 +0100 mac80211: move cmntr flag out of rx flags moved the CMTR flag into the skb's status, and in doing so introduced a use-after-free -- when the skb has been handed to cooked monitors the status setting will touch now invalid memory. Additionally, moving it there has effectively discarded the optimisation -- since the bit is only ever set on freed SKBs, and those were a copy, it could never be checked. For the current release, fixing this properly is a bit too involved, so let's just remove the problematic code and leave userspace with one copy of each frame for each virtual interface.

In order to make ipt_REJECT work with bridges, you also need to enable ip_forward. This patch also fixes a regression.

2010-09-21ip: fix truesize mismatch in ip fragmentationEric Dumazet
Special care should be taken when slow path is hit in ip_fragment() : When walking through frags, we transfert truesize ownership from skb to frags. Then if we hit a slow_path condition, we must undo this or risk uncharging frags->truesize twice, and in the end, having negative socket sk_wmem_alloc counter, or even freeing socket sooner than expected. Many thanks to Nick Bowler, who provided a very clean bug report and test program. Thanks to Jarek for reviewing my first patch and providing a V2 While Nick bisection pointed to commit 2b85a34e911 (net: No more expensive sock_hold()/sock_put() on each tx), underlying bug is older (2.6.12-rc5) A side effect is to extend work done in commit b2722b1c3a893e (ip_fragment: also adjust skb->truesize for packets not owned by a socket) to ipv6 as well.

2010-09-20xfrm: Allow different selector family in temporary stateThomas Egerer
The family parameter xfrm_state_find is used to find a state matching a certain policy. This value is set to the template's family (encap_family) right before xfrm_state_find is called. The family parameter is however also used to construct a temporary state in xfrm_state_find itself which is wrong for inter-family scenarios because it produces a selector for the wrong family. Since this selector is included in the xfrm_user_acquire structure, user space programs misinterpret IPv6 addresses as IPv4 and vice versa. This patch splits up the original init_tempsel function into a part that initializes the selector respectively the props and id of the temporary state, to allow for differing ip address families whithin the state.
