[ Upstream commit 309cf37fe2a781279b7675d4bb7173198e532867 ]

Because we miss to wipe the remainder of i-&gt;addr[] in packet_mc_add(),
pdiag_put_mclist() leaks uninitialized heap bytes via the
PACKET_DIAG_MCLIST netlink attribute.

Fix this by explicitly memset(0)ing the remaining bytes in i-&gt;addr[].

<title>packet: infer protocol from ethernet header if unset</title>

[ Upstream commit c72219b75fde768efccf7666342282fab7f9e4e7 ]

In case no struct sockaddr_ll has been passed to packet
socket's sendmsg() when doing a TX_RING flush run, then
skb-&gt;protocol is set to po-&gt;num instead, which is the protocol
passed via socket(2)/bind(2).

Applications only xmitting can go the path of allocating the
socket as socket(PF_PACKET, &lt;mode&gt;, 0) and do a bind(2) on the
TX_RING with sll_protocol of 0. That way, register_prot_hook()
is neither called on creation nor on bind time, which saves
cycles when there's no interest in capturing anyway.

That leaves us however with po-&gt;num 0 instead and therefore
the TX_RING flush run sets skb-&gt;protocol to 0 as well. Eric
reported that this leads to problems when using tools like
trafgen over bonding device. I.e. the bonding's hash function
could invoke the kernel's flow dissector, which depends on
skb-&gt;protocol being properly set. In the current situation, all
the traffic is then directed to a single slave.

Fix it up by inferring skb-&gt;protocol from the Ethernet header
when not set and we have ARPHRD_ETHER device type. This is only
done in case of SOCK_RAW and where we have a dev-&gt;hard_header_len
length. In case of ARPHRD_ETHER devices, this is guaranteed to
cover ETH_HLEN, and therefore being accessed on the skb after
the skb_store_bits().

[ Upstream commit 8fd6c80d9dd938ca338c70698533a7e304752846 ]

We concluded that the skb_probe_transport_header() should better be
called unconditionally. Avoiding the call into the flow dissector has
also not really much to do with the direct xmit mode.

While it seems that only virtio_net code makes use of GSO from non
RX/TX ring packet socket paths, we should probe for a transport header
nevertheless before they hit devices.

In tpacket_fill_skb() commit c1aad275b029 ("packet: set transport

header on the skb from a ring buffer slot, but at a time, where
the skb has _not even_ been filled with data yet. So that call into
the flow dissector is pretty useless. Lets do it after we've set
up the skb frags.

<title>packet: race condition in packet_bind</title>

[ Upstream commit 30f7ea1c2b5f5fb7462c5ae44fe2e40cb2d6a474 ]

There is a race conditions between packet_notifier and packet_bind{_spkt}.

It happens if packet_notifier(NETDEV_UNREGISTER) executes between the
time packet_bind{_spkt} takes a reference on the new netdevice and the
time packet_do_bind sets po-&gt;ifindex.
In this case the notification can be missed.
If this happens during a dev_change_net_namespace this can result in the
netdevice to be moved to the new namespace while the packet_sock in the
old namespace still holds a reference on it. When the netdevice is later
deleted in the new namespace the deletion hangs since the packet_sock
is not found in the new namespace' &amp;net-&gt;packet.sklist.
It can be reproduced with the script below.

This patch makes packet_do_bind check again for the presence of the
netdevice in the packet_sock's namespace after the synchronize_net
in unregister_prot_hook.
More in general it also uses the rcu lock for the duration of the bind
to stop dev_change_net_namespace/rollback_registered_many from
going past the synchronize_net following unlist_netdevice, so that
no NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifications can happen on the new netdevice
while the bind is executing. In order to do this some code from
packet_bind{_spkt} is consolidated into packet_do_dev.

import socket, os, time, sys
proto=7
realDev='em1'
vlanId=400
if len(sys.argv) &gt; 1:
   vlanId=int(sys.argv[1])
dev='vlan%d' % vlanId

os.system('taskset -p 0x10 %d' % os.getpid())

s = socket.socket(socket.PF_PACKET, socket.SOCK_RAW, proto)
os.system('ip link add link %s name %s type vlan id %d' %
          (realDev, dev, vlanId))
os.system('ip netns add dummy')

pid=os.fork()

if pid == 0:
   # dev should be moved while packet_do_bind is in synchronize net
   os.system('taskset -p 0x20000 %d' % os.getpid())
   os.system('ip link set %s netns dummy' % dev)
   os.system('ip netns exec dummy ip link del %s' % dev)
   s.close()
   sys.exit(0)

time.sleep(.004)
try:
   s.bind(('%s' % dev, proto+1))
except:
   print 'Could not bind socket'
   s.close()

[ Upstream commit 158cd4af8dedbda0d612d448c724c715d0dda649 ]

When binding a PF_PACKET socket, the use count of the bound interface is
always increased with dev_hold in dev_get_by_{index,name}.  However,
when rebound with the same protocol and device as in the previous bind
the use count of the interface was not decreased.  Ultimately, this
caused the deletion of the interface to fail with the following message:

unregister_netdevice: waiting for dummy0 to become free. Usage count = 1

This patch moves the dev_put out of the conditional part that was only
executed when either the protocol or device changed on a bind.

[ Upstream commit f98f4514d07871da7a113dd9e3e330743fd70ae4 ]

We need to tell compiler it must not read f-&gt;num_members multiple
times. Otherwise testing if num is not zero is flaky, and we could
attempt an invalid divide by 0 in fanout_demux_cpu()

Note bug was present in packet_rcv_fanout_hash() and
packet_rcv_fanout_lb() but final 3.1 had a simple location
after commit 95ec3eb417115fb ("packet: Add 'cpu' fanout policy.")

Fixes: dc99f600698dc ("packet: Add fanout support.")

[ Upstream commit dc808110bb62b64a448696ecac3938902c92e1ab ]

af_packet can currently overwrite kernel memory by out of bound
accesses, because it assumed a [new] block can always hold one frame.

This is not generally the case, even if most existing tools do it right.

This patch clamps too long frames as API permits, and issue a one time
error on syslog.

[  394.357639] tpacket_rcv: packet too big, clamped from 5042 to 3966. macoff=82

In this example, packet header tp_snaplen was set to 3966,
and tp_len was set to 5042 (skb-&gt;len)

[ 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.
