net: add validation for the socket syscall protocol argument

2016-01-05T17:04:00+00:00

[ Upstream commit 79462ad02e861803b3840cc782248c7359451cd9 ]

郭永刚 reported that one could simply crash the kernel as root by
using a simple program:

	int socket_fd;
	struct sockaddr_in addr;
	addr.sin_port = 0;
	addr.sin_addr.s_addr = INADDR_ANY;
	addr.sin_family = 10;

	socket_fd = socket(10,3,0x40000000);
	connect(socket_fd , &addr,16);

AF_INET, AF_INET6 sockets actually only support 8-bit protocol
identifiers. inet_sock's skc_protocol field thus is sized accordingly,
thus larger protocol identifiers simply cut off the higher bits and
store a zero in the protocol fields.

This could lead to e.g. NULL function pointer because as a result of
the cut off inet_num is zero and we call down to inet_autobind, which
is NULL for raw sockets.

kernel: Call Trace:
kernel:  [] ? inet_autobind+0x2e/0x70
kernel:  [] inet_dgram_connect+0x54/0x80

I found no particular commit which introduced this problem.

net: Use netlink_ns_capable to verify the permisions of netlink messages

2014-06-23T08:27:57+00:00

[ Upstream commit 90f62cf30a78721641e08737bda787552428061e ]

It is possible by passing a netlink socket to a more privileged
executable and then to fool that executable into writing to the socket
data that happens to be valid netlink message to do something that
privileged executable did not intend to do.

To keep this from happening replace bare capable and ns_capable calls
with netlink_capable, netlink_net_calls and netlink_ns_capable calls.
Which act the same as the previous calls except they verify that the
opener of the socket had the desired permissions as well.

net: Convert uses of typedef ctl_table to struct ctl_table

2013-06-13T09:36:09+00:00

Reduce the uses of this unnecessary typedef.

Done via perl script:

$ git grep --name-only -w ctl_table net | \
  xargs perl -p -i -e '\
	sub trim { my ($local) = @_; $local =~ s/(^\s+|\s+$)//g; return $local; } \
        s/\b(?

net: pass info struct via netdevice notifier

2013-05-28T20:11:01+00:00

So far, only net_device * could be passed along with netdevice notifier
event. This patch provides a possibility to pass custom structure
able to provide info that event listener needs to know.

rtnetlink: Remove passing of attributes into rtnl_doit functions

2013-03-22T14:31:16+00:00

With decnet converted, we can finally get rid of rta_buf and its
computations around it. It also gets rid of the minimal header
length verification since all message handlers do that explicitly
anyway.

decnet: Parse netlink attributes on our own

2013-03-22T14:31:16+00:00

decnet is the only subsystem left that is relying on the global
netlink attribute buffer rta_buf. It's horrible design and we
want to get rid of it.

This converts all of decnet to do implicit attribute parsing. It
also gets rid of the error prone struct dn_kern_rta.

Yes, the fib_magic() stuff is not pretty.

It's compiled tested but I need someone with appropriate hardware
to test the patch since I don't have access to it.

hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators

2013-02-28T03:10:24+00:00

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:
