Subject: Re: [PATCH] net: ipmr/ip6mr: prevent out-of-bounds vif_table access
Date: Fri, 26 Mar 2010 18:19:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BACECA6.2050506@dev.6wind.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100326.095137.165317348.davem@davemloft.net>
yes, but I think that it is not enough, ip[6]mr_mfc_add() is only called via
setsockopt().
When a multicast packet arrived in ip6_mr_input(), if there is no cache
ip6mr_cache_unresolved() will be called and this function will add an entry with
parent == 65535.
And the second problem is that when a vif is removed, no cleanup is made in
cache entry. Hence, we can have a cache entry which points to an invalid vif
(dev is set ot NULL).
Regards,
Nicolas
