Subject: [PATCH net-next 8/8] ipvs: fix integer overflow in ftp helper port/address parsing
Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2026 01:29:57 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260817232957.1281637-9-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260817232957.1281637-1-pablo@netfilter.org>
From: Joas Antonio dos Santos <joasantonio108@gmail.com>
ip_vs_ftp_get_addrport() accumulates decimal digits into a __u16
(hport) and into unsigned char (p[]) without checking for overflow.
A crafted FTP PASV/EPSV response with an over-long port or address
octet wraps the value, so the helper configures the data connection
with a truncated port/address.
The netfilter conntrack FTP helper had the same defect, fixed in
commit 2b413fc689ba ("netfilter: nf_conntrack_ftp: avoid u16
overflows"). Apply the equivalent fix here: widen the port accumulator
to u32 and reject values above 65535, and reject address octets above
255.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
