Pablo Neira Ayuso says:

====================
The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for you net tree,
mostly targeted to ipset, they are:

* Fix ICMPv6 NAT due to wrong comparison, code instead of type, from
  Phil Oester.

* Fix RCU race in conntrack extensions release path, from Michal Kubecek.

* Fix missing inversion in the userspace ipset test command match if
  the nomatch option is specified, from Jozsef Kadlecsik.

* Skip layer 4 protocol matching in ipset in case of IPv6 fragments,
  also from Jozsef Kadlecsik.

* Fix sequence adjustment in nfnetlink_queue due to using the netlink
  skb instead of the network skb, from Gao feng.

* Make sure we cannot swap of sets with different layer 3 family in
  ipset, from Jozsef Kadlecsik.

* Fix possible bogus matching in ipset if hash sets with net elements
  are used, from Oliver Smith.

netfilter: nf_nat_proto_icmpv6:: fix wrong comparison in icmpv6_manip_pkt

2013-09-13T09:58:48+00:00

In commit 58a317f1 (netfilter: ipv6: add IPv6 NAT support), icmpv6_manip_pkt
was added with an incorrect comparison of ICMP codes to types.  This causes
problems when using NAT rules with the --random option.  Correct the
comparison.

This closes netfilter bugzilla #851, reported by Alexander Neumann.

ipv6: don't call fib6_run_gc() until routing is ready

2013-09-11T21:04:09+00:00

When loading the ipv6 module, ndisc_init() is called before
ip6_route_init(). As the former registers a handler calling
fib6_run_gc(), this opens a window to run the garbage collector
before necessary data structures are initialized. If a network
device is initialized in this window, adding MAC address to it
triggers a NETDEV_CHANGEADDR event, leading to a crash in
fib6_clean_all().

Take the event handler registration out of ndisc_init() into a
separate function ndisc_late_init() and move it after
ip6_route_init().

net: fib: fib6_add: fix potential NULL pointer dereference

2013-09-11T20:09:59+00:00

When the kernel is compiled with CONFIG_IPV6_SUBTREES, and we return
with an error in fn = fib6_add_1(), then error codes are encoded into
the return pointer e.g. ERR_PTR(-ENOENT). In such an error case, we
write the error code into err and jump to out, hence enter the if(err)
condition. Now, if CONFIG_IPV6_SUBTREES is enabled, we check for:

  if (pn != fn && pn->leaf == rt)
    ...
  if (pn != fn && !pn->leaf && !(pn->fn_flags & RTN_RTINFO))
    ...

Since pn is NULL and fn is f.e. ERR_PTR(-ENOENT), then pn != fn
evaluates to true and causes a NULL-pointer dereference on further
checks on pn. Fix it, by setting both NULL in error case, so that
pn != fn already evaluates to false and no further dereference
takes place.

This was first correctly implemented in 4a287eba2 ("IPv6 routing,
NLM_F_* flag support: REPLACE and EXCL flags support, warn about
missing CREATE flag"), but the bug got later on introduced by
188c517a0 ("ipv6: return errno pointers consistently for fib6_add_1()").

ipv6/exthdrs: accept tlv which includes only padding

2013-09-11T19:52:27+00:00

In rfc4942 and rfc2460 I cannot find anything which would implicate to
drop packets which have only padding in tlv.

Current behaviour breaks TAHI Test v6LC.1.2.6.

Pull networking changes from David Miller:
 "Noteworthy changes this time around:

   1) Multicast rejoin support for team driver, from Jiri Pirko.

   2) Centralize and simplify TCP RTT measurement handling in order to
      reduce the impact of bad RTO seeding from SYN/ACKs.  Also, when
      both timestamps and local RTT measurements are available prefer
      the later because there are broken middleware devices which
      scramble the timestamp.

      From Yuchung Cheng.

   3) Add TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT socket option to limit the amount of kernel
      memory consumed to queue up unsend user data.  From Eric Dumazet.

   4) Add a "physical port ID" abstraction for network devices, from
      Jiri Pirko.

   5) Add a "suppress" operation to influence fib_rules lookups, from
      Stefan Tomanek.

   6) Add a networking development FAQ, from Paul Gortmaker.

   7) Extend the information provided by tcp_probe and add ipv6 support,
      from Daniel Borkmann.

   8) Use RCU locking more extensively in openvswitch data paths, from
      Pravin B Shelar.

   9) Add SCTP support to openvswitch, from Joe Stringer.

  10) Add EF10 chip support to SFC driver, from Ben Hutchings.

  11) Add new SYNPROXY netfilter target, from Patrick McHardy.

  12) Compute a rate approximation for sending in TCP sockets, and use
      this to more intelligently coalesce TSO frames.  Furthermore, add
      a new packet scheduler which takes advantage of this estimate when
      available.  From Eric Dumazet.

  13) Allow AF_PACKET fanouts with random selection, from Daniel
      Borkmann.

  14) Add ipv6 support to vxlan driver, from Cong Wang"

Conflicts:
	drivers/net/ethernet/stmicro/stmmac/stmmac_platform.c
	net/bridge/br_multicast.c
	net/ipv6/sit.c

The conflicts were minor:

1) sit.c changes overlap with change to ip_tunnel_xmit() signature.

2) br_multicast.c had an overlap between computing max_delay using
   msecs_to_jiffies and turning MLDV2_MRC() into an inline function
   with a name using lowercase instead of uppercase letters.

3) stmmac had two overlapping changes, one which conditionally allocated
   and hooked up a dma_cfg based upon the presence of the pbl OF property,
   and another one handling store-and-forward DMA made.  The latter of
   which should not go into the new of_find_property() basic block.

ipv6:introduce function to find route for redirect

2013-09-05T16:44:31+00:00

RFC 4861 says that the IP source address of the Redirect is the
same as the current first-hop router for the specified ICMP
Destination Address, so the gateway should be taken into
consideration when we find the route for redirect.

There was once a check in commit
a6279458c534d01ccc39498aba61c93083ee0372 ("NDISC: Search over
all possible rules on receipt of redirect.") and the check
went away in commit b94f1c0904da9b8bf031667afc48080ba7c3e8c9
("ipv6: Use icmpv6_notify() to propagate redirect, instead of
rt6_redirect()").

The bug is only "exploitable" on layer-2 because the source
address of the redirect is checked to be a valid link-local
address but it makes spoofing a lot easier in the same L2
domain nonetheless.

Thanks very much for Hannes's help.
